International Battery Metals Ltd. announced the successful assembly of the first commercial-scale, Mobile Lithium Extraction Plant. The unique modular design of the Company's lithium extraction plant allows for rapid plant deployment and onsite assembly. The plant, currently being tested in Louisiana, was assembled in an astonishing ten-day period by a small, nine-man crew, demonstrating the versatility of the plant's design and the feasibility of moving the plant between multiple lithium-bearing brine resources.

The Company is anticipating that its patented design will allow access and a means to capitalize on diverse lithium-bearing brine resources. The current plant is capable of producing 5,000 metric tons of commercial-grade LiCl, on a lithium carbonate equivalent basis, each year. The same plant can be quickly expanded to produce up to 20,000 metric tons of LiCl per year, based on the capacity and unique composition of the brine resource.
