E3 Lithium (TSXV: ETL) (OTCQX: EEMMF) has signed a Joint Development Agreement with Pure Lithium to advance the design of a lithium metal anode and battery pilot plant in Alberta. The companies will complete a Preliminary Economic Assessment of a commercial lithium metal battery facility, combining Pure Lithium's Brine to Battery™ technology with E3's lithium brines and concentrate production.
The agreement aims to eliminate the need for lithium salt production as an intermediary step, potentially simplifying the process. Over the next 12 months, they will develop a techno-economic model, continue joint scale-up efforts, and design a pilot facility near Calgary. The pilot is designed to produce 200kg of lithium metal anodes for use in lithium metal vanadium rechargeable batteries.
E3 Lithium (TSXV: ETL, OTCQX: EEMMF) has secured a $5 million investment from the Alberta Government through the Emissions Reduction Alberta TIER fund for its integrated Lithium Brine Demonstration Facility. The six-month project near Olds, Alberta, aims to purify, concentrate, and convert brine into battery-grade lithium carbonate. This Demo Project will integrate components into a reduced-scale commercial system, providing important data for designing a full-scale facility.
The investment supports E3 Lithium's goal of producing lithium from local brines, positioning Alberta as a potential leader in lithium production. The project is expected to mitigate risks, gather data on reservoir performance, and establish production forecasts, making E3 Lithium the first company to lead such a demonstration in Alberta and Canada.
E3 Lithium (TSXV: ETL, OTCQX: EEMMF) has announced plans to construct a fully integrated Lithium Brine Demonstration Facility in Alberta, Canada. This Demo Project aims to produce battery-grade lithium carbonate from brines in the Leduc reservoir, advancing the company's goal of developing a commercial lithium facility. The project builds upon E3's successful Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) pilot program conducted in 2023, which validated the economic feasibility of lithium projects in Alberta.
The Demo Project will scale up the DLE system and incorporate purification, concentration, and chemical conversion processes to continuously produce lithium carbonate. It will provide real-time data for commercial system design and samples for potential strategic partners. This facility is expected to be unique in Canada and serve as an economic driver for Alberta's battery supply chain.
