CENTURY LITHIUM PRODUCES LITHIUM CARBONATE ONSITE AT PILOT PLANT
Century Lithium Corp. (TSXV: LCE) (OTCQX: CYDVF) has successfully added a lithium carbonate stage at its Pilot Plant in Amargosa Valley, Nevada. The company produced 20 kg of high-grade lithium carbonate onsite from 200 liters of concentrated lithium solution. This development aligns with recommendations from their recent Feasibility Study and marks a significant step towards domestic lithium production in the U.S.
Despite the recent downturn in lithium prices affecting share prices across the industry, Century Lithium continues to focus on unlocking the vast lithium resources in Nevada's claystone deposits. The company's patent-pending process combines chloride leaching with Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) to produce battery-quality lithium products onsite, potentially reducing the need for downstream processing.
Century Lithium Corp. (TSXV: LCE) (OTCQX: CYDVF) ha aggiunto con successo una fase di carbonato di litio presso il suo Impianto Pilota nella Valle di Amargosa, in Nevada. L'azienda ha prodotto 20 kg di carbonato di litio di alta qualità in loco a partire da 200 litri di soluzione concentrata di litio. Questo sviluppo è in linea con le raccomandazioni del loro recente Studio di Fattibilità e rappresenta un passo significativo verso la produzione domestica di litio negli Stati Uniti.
Nonostante il recente calo dei prezzi del litio che sta influenzando i prezzi delle azioni in tutto il settore, Century Lithium continua a concentrarsi sull'apertura delle vaste risorse di litio nei depositi di argilla del Nevada. Il processo brevettato in attesa di approvazione dell'azienda combina il percolamento di cloruro con l'estrazione diretta di litio (DLE) per produrre prodotti di litio di qualità per batterie in loco, riducendo potenzialmente la necessità di lavorazioni ulteriori.

A pesar de la reciente caída de los precios del litio que ha afectado a los precios de las acciones en toda la industria, Century Lithium sigue centrándose en desbloquear los vastos recursos de litio en los depósitos de arcilla de Nevada. El proceso de la compañía, con patente pendiente, combina la lixiviación de cloruro con la Extracción Directa de Litio (DLE) para producir productos de litio de calidad para baterías en el lugar, lo que podría reducir la necesidad de procesamiento posterior.
센추리 리튬 코퍼레이션(Century Lithium Corp.)(TSXV: LCE)(OTCQX: CYDVF)이 네바다의 아마르고사 밸리에 소재한 파일럿 공장에 리튬 카보네이트 단계를 성공적으로 추가했습니다. 이 회사는 200리터의 농축 리튬 용액에서 고급 리튬 카보네이트 20kg를 현장에서 생산했습니다. 이 개발은 최근 타당성 연구의 권장 사항과 일치하며 미국 내 국내 리튬 생산을 위한 중요한 진전을 의미합니다.
최근 리튬 가격의 하락으로 인해 업계 전체의 주식 가격에 영향을 미치고 있지만, 센추리 리튬은 네바다의 점토석 매장량에 있는 방대한 리튬 자원 개발에 집중하고 있습니다. 회사의 특허 출원 중 프로세스는 염소 침출과 직접 리튬 추출(DLE)을 결합하여 현장에서 배터리 품질의 리튬 제품을 생산하여 하류 가공의 필요성을 줄일 수 있습니다.

Malgré la récente baisse des prix du lithium affectant les cours des actions dans l'ensemble du secteur, Century Lithium continue de se concentrer sur le déblocage des vastes ressources en lithium dans les dépôts d'argile du Nevada. Le processus de l'entreprise, en attente de brevet, combine le lixiviation de chlorure avec l'extraction directe de lithium (DLE) pour produire des produits lithium de qualité batterie sur site, ce qui pourrait réduire le besoin de traitement ultérieur.
Century Lithium Corp. (TSXV: LCE) (OTCQX: CYDVF) hat erfolgreich eine Lithiumcarbonat-Stufe in seiner Pilotanlage im Amargosa Valley, Nevada, hinzugefügt. Das Unternehmen hat vor Ort 20 kg hochreines Lithiumcarbonat aus 200 Litern konzentrierter Lithiumlösung produziert. Diese Entwicklung steht im Einklang mit den Empfehlungen ihrer kürzlich durchgeführten Machbarkeitsstudie und markiert einen bedeutenden Schritt in Richtung inländischer Lithiumproduktion in den USA.
Trotz des jüngsten Rückgangs der Lithiumpreise, der die Aktienkurse in der gesamten Branche beeinflusst, konzentriert sich Century Lithium weiterhin darauf, die umfangreichen Lithiumressourcen in den Tonsteinablagerungen Nevadas zu erschließen. Das zum Patent angemeldete Verfahren des Unternehmens kombiniert Chlorid-Laugung mit der direkten Lithiumextraktion (DLE), um vor Ort lithiumhaltige Produkte in Batterieware zu erzeugen, was potenziell den Bedarf an nachgelagerter Verarbeitung reduzieren kann.
- Successful production of 20 kg high-grade lithium carbonate onsite
- Addition of lithium carbonate stage at Pilot Plant aligns with Feasibility Study recommendations
- Patent-pending process combines chloride leaching with Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE)
- Potential to reduce or eliminate need for downstream processing
- Recent downturn in lithium prices affecting share prices of lithium companies
"At this point in time, the ability to make lithium carbonate at our Pilot Plant is an important step forward, in line with recommendations from our recently completed Feasibility Study" commented President and CEO Bill Willoughby. "The drop in lithium prices over the last year has taken a toll on the share price of all lithium companies. Despite the downturn, domestic production is still key to the security of supply in the
The Company continues work at the Pilot Plant, utilizing the Company's patent-pending process for chloride leaching combined with Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) to generate data as the Company works to identify further technological breakthroughs to make the extraction of lithium from clay more economic. Adding the lithium carbonate stage at the Pilot Plant is one of the recommendations made in the Feasibility Study, not only to further demonstrate that battery quality lithium carbonate can be made, but to better understand and minimize the recycle streams from the DLE stage through to final product in the process. With the assistance of engineers from Hargrove Engineers and Constructors, Century's team configured equipment to run 40-liter batches of concentrated lithium solution though precipitation, washing and drying steps. Final assays on the lithium carbonate are pending.
