Century Lithium begins moving Li extraction facility

Mr. Bill Willoughby reports CENTURY LITHIUM RELOCATING DEMONSTRATION PLANT TO TONOPAH, NEVADA Century Lithium Corp. has begun moving its lithium extraction facility to the company's facility at the Tonopah airport, Nevada. This relocation will consolidate the company's operations, improve logistical efficiency, reduce costs and strengthen support for future activities. "The relocation of the demonstration plant will allow the company to consolidate support for the development of Angel Island," said Bill Willoughby, president and chief executive officer of Century Lithium. "Thanks to the knowledge and efforts of our team, led by senior vice-president Todd Fayram, Century's process has undergone various configurations while performing a multitude of tests towards the development of Century Lithium's patent-pending process for chloride leaching and direct lithium extraction (DLE)." Century Lithium's end-to-end process begins by treating Angel Island claystone under optimized conditions using hydrochloric acid, followed by neutralization using sodium hydroxide, with both the acid and base components sustainably produced on site through the electrolysis of salt water. Following filtration, the resulting lithium chloride solution is treated by DLE to selectively recover lithium and refined to produce high-purity, battery-grade lithium carbonate suitable for electric vehicle and energy storage applications. By relocating the demonstration plant, Century Lithium will gain more space to conduct research and development on battery materials, including lithium metal and lithium iron phosphate. The new location will also allow the construction of a larger assay and metallurgical laboratory at Tonopah to support Angel Island's current and future laboratory needs. Century Lithium's 20-acre site at the Tonopah airport is home to Century Lithium's field office for Angel Island. It was integral for the preparation and handling of the bulk sample material treated in the three-year-long pilot plant program at Amargosa Valley. Going forward, Century Lithium's Tonopah airport facility will be used for research and development for Angel Island, project support and administration. About Century Lithium Corp. Century Lithium is an advanced-stage lithium company, focused on developing its 100-per-cent-owned lithium project Angel Island in Esmeralda county, Nevada, which hosts one of the largest sedimentary lithium deposits in the United States. The company has utilized its patent-pending process for chloride leaching combined with direct lithium extraction to make battery-grade lithium carbonate product samples from Angel Island's lithium-bearing claystone at its demonstration plant in Amargosa Valley, Nevada.
