Volt Lithium Ord Shs Stock Price, News & Analysis

LibertyStream Infrastructure Partners (OTCQB: VLTLF) has announced key changes to its leadership team. The company has appointed Mr. Huayuan Jiang, M.Eng. as Senior Director, Chemistry, bringing over 10 years of experience in Technology, Product and Materials Development, with specific expertise in lithium extraction technologies for oilfield brines.

Additionally, the company announced that Chief Technology Officer John McEwen will be departing effective October 8, 2025. Mr. Jiang's appointment comes at a crucial time as LibertyStream transitions from field operations to commercial operations in Texas.

LibertyStream (OTCQB: VLTLF) has achieved a significant operational milestone by processing over 250,000 barrels of Permian brine using its proprietary Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) technology over nine months of field operations. The company has implemented key operational improvements including enhanced pre-treatment processes, optimized fluid temperature management, and system design refinements.

LibertyStream is entering its final de-risking phase with the planned commissioning of its lithium carbonate refining unit in Q4 2025. The company's potential production capacity is estimated at 220,000 tonnes per annum of lithium carbonate equivalent, leveraging existing infrastructure in the Permian Basin (20 million barrels daily) and Bakken region (1.5-1.7 million barrels daily).

LibertyStream (OTCQB: VLTLF) has completed construction of its commercial lithium carbonate refining unit, which is now being transported to its Texas operations. The unit has a 10 tonnes per annum capacity and can produce both industrial-grade and battery-grade lithium carbonate.

The refining unit represents a crucial step toward commercial production, enabling the company to provide bulk samples from oilfield brine for potential customer validation and offtake agreements. Additionally, the company announced the retirement of Marty Scase from its Board of Directors, where he served as Executive Chairman during a transition period.

LibertyStream (OTCQB: VLTLF) has secured a US$700,000 grant from the State of North Dakota to fund a lithium carbonate refining unit. The grant, awarded through partnership with Wellspring Hydro, is drawn from a US$7.5 million state-funded grant and loan facility, with US$4.2 million still available for future use.

The refining unit will be capable of producing up to 10 tonnes per annum of industrial and battery-grade lithium carbonate. Initially deployed in Texas, the unit will later relocate to North Dakota. The company also appointed Eamon Hurley as Corporate Secretary, granting him 250,000 options exercisable at $0.23 per share.

LibertyStream Infrastructure Partners (OTCQB: VLTLF) has successfully closed its previously announced promissory notes offering, raising aggregate gross proceeds of $3,530,000. The offering includes $3,400,000 in senior secured notes purchased by Pathfinder Asset Management and $130,000 in unsecured notes acquired by CEO Alex Wylie.

The notes carry a 12% annual interest rate, maturing on August 8, 2026, with early redemption options. The company issued 3,004,255 bonus shares at $0.235 per share, representing 20% of the principal amount. The proceeds will fund a $2,100,000 refining unit purchase and $1,430,000 for working capital.

LibertyStream (OTCQB: VLTLF) has announced two significant developments: the acquisition of a commercial lithium carbonate refining unit and a $3.53 million promissory note financing. The new refining unit can produce up to 10 tonnes per annum of industrial and battery-grade lithium carbonate, building upon the company's successful deployment of North America's largest operational DLE system in Texas.

The financing includes 12% promissory notes due in one year, with Pathfinder Asset Management subscribing $3.4 million (secured) and CEO Alex Wylie contributing $130,000 (unsecured). The proceeds will fund the refining unit purchase ($2.4 million) and working capital ($1.13 million). The deal includes issuing 2,893,617 bonus shares to lenders, representing 20% of the principal amount at $0.235 per share.

LibertyStream Infrastructure Partners (OTCQB: VLTLF) has successfully completed a field trial of its proprietary mobile Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) unit in North Dakota's Bakken region. The trial, supported by US$2.5 million in funding from North Dakota authorities, achieved an impressive 96% lithium extraction rate from oil-field brine.

The field unit processed brine with an average lithium content of 75 mg/L, handling 300 gallons per DLE cycle. The company has completed over 1,300 DLE cycles across six months of U.S. operations, demonstrating scalability in both the Permian and Bakken basins, which represent 60% of total U.S. onshore oil output.

The Permian Basin's potential lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) production is estimated at 170,000 tonnes per annum, while the Williston Basin Bakken could potentially produce ~50,000 tonnes per annum LCE.

Volt Lithium (VLTLF) announces the deployment of its mobile Direct Lithium Extraction unit in North Dakota's Bakken region, scheduled for June 2025. The US$2.5 million project, supported by North Dakota authorities and partnering with Wellspring Hydro, marks Volt's expansion into its second major U.S. basin. The company's proprietary DLE technology, already operational in the Permian Basin processing 10,000+ barrels/day, adapts to multiple brine chemistries. The Bakken operation features higher lithium concentration (90 ppm) compared to Permian (30 ppm), with potential production of 50,000 tonnes LCE annually. The company, soon to be renamed LibertyStream Infrastructure Partners, is building lithium chloride inventory and converting it to high-purity lithium carbonate for potential buyers. Their strategic presence in both Permian and Bakken basins, representing 60% of U.S. onshore oil output, positions them for significant lithium extraction opportunities.

Volt Lithium Corp (VLTLF) announces key strategic changes including the appointment of co-founder Marty Scase as Executive Chairman and a proposed name change to LibertyStream Infrastructure Partners Inc. The company will hold its AGM on June 18, 2025. Volt has made significant operational progress with its Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) technology, successfully deploying its Generation 5 Field Unit capable of processing 10,000 barrels of oilfield brine daily - the largest operational DLE system for oilfield brines in North America. The company has secured strategic partnerships, including a $2.5 million grant from North Dakota, and is transitioning towards commercial-scale lithium production with a focus on U.S. operations to align with domestic critical mineral production initiatives.
