Arizona Lithium has produced battery grade lithium carbonate from its Prairie Project, which has been independently verified by Saltworks.
This lithium carbonate, essential for EV batteries, was derived from the DLE eluent of the ILiad pilot, which operated from November 2023 to February 2024.
The DLE eluent was transported to Saltworks’ facility in Vancouver, Canada, where it underwent conversion into the battery grade lithium carbonate.
Arizona Lithium’s Big Sandy Lithium Project also received the green light from the US Bureau of Land Management for the Permit of Exploration.
The Big Sandy Lithium project is poised to become a significant source of revenue for Arizona Lithium in the medium term.
Arizona Lithium’s management has expressed that this project, along with the Prairie Project, which is expected to generate steady cash flows in the short term, will play a crucial role in the company’s growth strategy.
