Century Lithium Corp. (TSXV: LCE | OTCQX: CYDVF | Frankfurt: C1Z) has provided an update on its wholly owned Angel Island project near Silver Peak, Nevada, USA and associated Lithium Extraction Facility (Pilot Plant) in Amargosa Valley Nevada.
The company has completed the successful implementation of process improvements at its pilot plant. These changes were developed in collaboration with Amalgamated Research, LLC (ARi), a research and development company specializing in industrial implementation of process technologies. Century Lithium is now shifting the focus at its pilot plant from research and development to demonstration.
“The initial results from ARi are very encouraging, indicating greater efficiency can be achieved that could result in positive reductions in the estimated capital and operating costs at Angel Island,” said Century Lithium president and CEO, Bill Willoughby. “Century Lithium remains committed to delivering value to our shareholders through Angel Island, one of the few advanced lithium projects in the United States. We are optimistic about the long-term fundamentals of the lithium market and the strategic importance of Angel Island to the future mineral supply in the United States.”
Early results from the programme indicate Century Lithium can eliminate the recycle loops within its DLE and lithium carbonate areas, while increasing eluate grades. The company believes this will result in a substantial reduction in estimated capital and operating costs at Angel Island.
