The growing demand for lithium $DGO.ca $FMR.ca $BFF.ca $PFN.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 11:12 AM on Friday, September 2nd, 2016

Global demand for Lithium is on the up
Worldwide demand for finished Lithium is around 160,000 tons a year
Expected to rise to 400,000 to 500,000 per year over the next decade.

The global demand for Lithium is on the up, worldwide demand for finished Lithium is around 160,000 tons a year. It is expected to rise to 400,000 to 500,000 per year over the next decade.

According to data from USGS, worldwide lithium production increased slightly in 2015 as a result of an increased demand for battery applications â€“ of which lithium is a key component.

Batteries, specifically rechargeable batteries, have been identified as the largest potential growth area for lithium compounds with the demand for these far outweighing that of other rechargeable ones. Demand is also on the rise as automobile companies have entered the market, developing lithium batteries for electric and hybrid electric vehicles.

â€“ Mineral-sourced lithium regained market share and was estimated to account for one-half of the worldâ€™s lithium supply in 2015 â€“ which was 32,500 Mt.

â€“ Rechargeable lithium batteries are used extensively in the growing market for portable electronic devices and increasingly are used in electric tools, electric vehicles, and grid storage applications. Lithium minerals were used directly as ore concentrates in ceramics and glass applications worldwide.

As for world mine production and reserves of lithium, the three powerhouses as listed in the report are:

â€“ Australia leads the charge with 13,400 Mt production of lithium, with 2,000,000 in lithium reserves. Chile comes ins a close second, with 11,500 Mt of lithium and 7,500,000 in reserves. And the third largest producer is China, with 2,200 Mt in production and 3,200,000.

Three lithium producers from across the world:

The only lithium producer in North America is Lithium X, in Clayton Valley, Nevada. The Albermarleâ€™s Silver Peak brine evaporation project, which has been the only lithium brine production in North America since 1966. Recent reports have revealed that Clayton Valley has an inferred resource of 816,000.

Lithium X also owns the Sal de Los Angeles project in the Salta Province, Argentina. It contains a Mineral Resource Estimate of 1,037,000 tonnes of lithium carbonated. Lithium X is focusing on becoming a low cost supplier for the burgeoning lithium battery industry, working with global battery giants like Panasonic, AESC, LG and BYD.

Australian lithium producers Pilbara Minerals own the Pilgangoora development project. The project contains the worldâ€™s second largest spodumene resource and one of the largest tantalite resources. With plans to become a leading low cost lithium supplier, a recent Ore Reserve estimate published in March this year revealed a 29.5 million tonnes of lithium oxide.

Shanghai China Lithium, founded in 2002, is a Chinese based lithium production company. The company produces an annual output of 600 tons of lithium dihydrogen phosphate; 3000 tons of Litium Carbonate, and 2500 tons of battery grade lithium hydroxide.

Updating shareholders on the recent developments in regards to the acquisition of Le Royal Lithium project and the agreement with Platypus Resources (ASX:PLP)
Recent developments concerning the commercial terms of the proposed joint-venture and the L-Max(R) lithium extraction technology license that is part of the agreement

Montreal, Quebec / August 29, 2016 – St-Georges Platinum and Base Metals Ltd. (CSE:SX) (OTC:SXOOF) (FSE:85G1) is pleased to update its shareholders on the recent developments in regards to the acquisition of Le Royal Lithium project and the agreement with Platypus Resources (ASX:PLP) concerning the commercial terms of the proposed joint-venture and the L-Max(R) lithium extraction technology license that is part of the agreement.

Le Royal Lithium Project Update

The Company has recently agreed to commercial terms with Platypus Resources (ASX:PLP) in regards to the joint-venture proposed on Le Royal Lithium project. (Please refer to St-Georges Press Release dated August 4, 2016). The agreement establishes St-Georges’ initial ownership option at 30% against payments of 3 million shares over 3 years and CAD $450,000 worth of qualified exploration work on the project. Spending an additional CAD $450,000 on the project and delivering a NI 43-101 report will also enable St-Georges to bring its total ownership of the project to 50%.

Due diligence results

St-Georges expects to receive the initial draft version of the technical report on Le Royal Lithium project in early September. This report will constitute the last step of the due diligence effort conducted jointly with PLP on the project.

The licenced L-Max(R) Technology

The agreement also established a framework for the usage of the L-Max(R) technology owned by Platypus through its fully own subsidiary Lepidico Pty Ltd. St-Georges’ management was asked by some of its shareholders and many stakeholders to release more details on this particular aspect of the agreement.

L-Max(R) is a proprietary process developed to extract and recover battery-grade lithium carbonate and potassium sulfate fertilizer from Li-rich micas. Micas include lepidolite, zinnwaldite and Li-containing muscovite.

Unlike other lithium extraction processes, the L-Max(R) process does not require significant amounts of land for evaporation ponds, or costly pyrometallurigical processing routes in order to extract and recover the valuable lithium. The hydrometallurgical L-Max(R) process involves direct atmospheric leaching of lithium mica and purification with subsequent lithium carbonate precipitation. It differs considerably from the traditional processing of spodumene, which requires high temperature decrepitation and sulfate roasting prior to lithium recovery. This novel process is simpler and is expected to have lower energy requirements than existing lithium recovery processes. The processing of lithium micas also results in the production of potassium and rare metals containing by-products, which could significantly offset the operating costs of lithium carbonate productionThe metallurgical test work has demonstrated the viability of producing battery-grade lithium carbonate (99.5% purity) and potassium containing fertilizer from the Li-mica feed material.

The hydrometallurgical L-Max(R) process involves direct atmospheric leaching of lithium mica impurity with subsequent lithium carbonate precipitation. It differs considerably from the traditional processing of spodumene, which requires high temperature decrepitation and sulfate roasting prior to lithium recovery. This novel process is simpler and is expected to have lower energy requirements than existing lithium recovery processes. The processing of lithium micas also results in the production of potassium and rare metals containing by-products, which could significantly offset the operating costs of lithium carbonate production. The metallurgical test work has demonstrated the viability of producing battery-grade lithium carbonate (99.5% purity) and potassium containing fertilizer from the Li-mica feed material.

The L-Max(R) process uses mainstream industrial chemicals namely, sulfuric acid and lime/limestone. These are cheap and readily available chemicals that are the cornerstone of large-scale chemical processing. L-Max(R) does not use expensive, specialized reagents that may be difficult to obtain, expensive to procure, or complex in operation. The use of cheap, readily available reagents does not necessitate their recovery or recycling, thus further reducing the costs of the process.

The process has been extensively tested in a series of batch laboratory tests using ore from Lithium Australia (ASX:LIT) and European Metals Holdings (ASX:EMH). The flotation of lithium mica from the pegmatite ore is a useful upgrade step and was successful, achieving high lithium recovery. Leaching of the lithium micas has achieved very high dissolution rates in relatively short leaching times.

Enrico Di Cesare, director of St-Georges and responsible for the Research & Development efforts in Canada, commented: “St-Georges is excited by the potential of this technology. Not only does it bring promise to our own mineral prospects but has the potential to unlock other resources around the world that have long been overlooked. We are excited by the potential this technology brings in producing two highly sought after products of lithium carbonate and potassium sulfate(…) St-Georges has focused on finding resources that are sought after and combining with technology, intending to be a low cost producer and greener through the production of salable by-products.(…) The St-Georges management team is looking forward to building a team around the exploitation of the resources and completing the work with this new technology and raw materials.”

“The relationship with Platypus enables us to growth exponentially the amount of targets we can now entertain in the reclamation business, the revival of old mineral projects, tailings and/or alternative mineral sources around the world. (…) We believe that we will be in a position to test the compatibility of our own research with this technology and approach future potential clients as complementary technological providers (…) all this while developing a showcase potential alternative lithium source in the middle of a known lithium mining camp,” said Frank Dumas, president and CEO of St-Georges.

Quarterly Financial Reports

St-Georges published its quarterly financial statements today. The documents are now available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com). For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had no revenues. The Company incurred net losses for the period of $92,271 (2015 – $121,944). The decrease in the loss is primarily due to a reduction of subcontractor costs to $34,046 (2015 – $60,224) due to lower charges from the new CFO. At June 30, 2016, the Company had a working capital deficit of $272,950 (December 31, 2015 – $285,025).

On May 9, 2016, the Company completed a private placement for total subscriptions of $145,000 for 7,250,000 units priced at $0.02 per unit. Each unit consists of one common share and one non-transferrable 28-month warrant entitling the purchaser to acquire one common share and one additional warrant at an exercise price of $0.04. The second warrant has an exercise price of $0.06 and expires 28 months from the initial issue date. Common shares of the units subscribed by insiders are restricted for 24 months.

As at June 30, 2016, the Company had 49,839,045 common shares outstanding, and at the current date has 50,339,045 common shares outstanding.

Nevada Energy Metals Lithium Exploration Program Underway at Black Rock Desert, Nevada $BFF.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:41 AM on Monday, August 29th, 2016

Surface sampling program designed to test for lithium values in playa evaporates has been initiated at the Company’s 100% owned Black Rock Desert Project
Geochemical sample points are being arranged on a grid pattern of 11 lines spaced 400 meters apart with stations every 200 meters along the lines

August 29, 2016 / Nevada Energy Metals Inc. “the Company” (TSX-V: BFF; OTCQB: SSMLF; Frankfurt: A2AFBV) is pleased to announce that a surface sampling program designed to test for lithium values in playa evaporates has been initiated at the Company’s 100% owned Black Rock Desert Project. Geochemical sample points are being arranged on a grid pattern of 11 lines spaced 400 meters apart with stations every 200 meters along the lines. It is expected that 170 sample points will be measured. Results should be available in approximately 3 weeks.

The Black Rock Desert Lithium Project consists of 128 placer claims, (2,560 acres/ 1,036 hectares) located in southwest Black Rock Desert, Washoe County, Nevada. The nearest population center is the town of Gerlach, which lies 177 kilometers north of Reno.

The western arm of the Black Rock Desert covers an area of about 2,000 square kilometers and contains 5 of the 30 currently listed Known Geothermal Resource Areas in Nevada. The property covers an area of playa underlain by a moderately deep basin interpreted from gravity and seismic surveys indicating a maximum thickness of valley-fill deposits of about 1,200 m/ 3,600 ft. A high salt content prevents any significant vegetation from growing on the playa surface. Locally, the basin is being fed in part by boiling springs and siliceous sinter containing strongly anomalous Lithium values (up to 3.5 ppm) that flank the property on the west side. (U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Open-File Report 81-918.) While these lithium values are well below those of producing lithium bines, they do represent a significant source of metal available for evaporative concentration within the playa basin.

The company plans to carry out additional exploration programs this fall to determine the potential for an economic lithium brine deposit. Future exploration will consist of shallow auger sampling followed by a high resolution geophysical program to define potential drill targets.

Nevada Energy Metals has acquired a 100% interest in the property, free of royalty payments.

It is a part of the Cat Lake portion of the Cat Lake – Winnipeg River Pegmatite Field. The Winnipeg River Pegmatite Field hosts the World-Class Tanco Pegmatite which has been mined since 1969.

The Lithium Two Project consists of one claim (CAT 3, MB 3903) of 137 hectares (3.4 acres) in size, which is situated north of Cat Lake. The option agreement from Mustang Minerals allows the company to acquire the adjacent ground, should mineralization continue, onto other Mustang claims. This Project has Excellent Access, with a major gravel covered provincial highway through the project area.

The Eagle Pegmatite has been reported to be exposed at surface as a series of lenticular Spodumene-bearing Dykes, over a distance of about 823 metres, with a general strike of 077? and a near vertical dip. Several companies have explored for Pegmatites in the region. In 1947, drilling of the Eagle Pegmatite estimated that there was 544,460 tonnes (600 000 tons) of Spodumene with an average content of 1.4% Li2O to a depth of 61 metres (200 feet). This is a historic estimation and is Non NI 43-101 compliant. It was also reported at that time, that structural controls on the mineralization suggested that the Eagle Pegmatite continued to depth.

Nevada Energy Metals Starts Lithium Exploration Survey at Big Smokey Valley (North), Nevada $BFF.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:49 AM on Thursday, August 4th, 2016

Announce that a sampling program designed to test for lithium values in surface soils and/or playa evaporates has been initiated at the Company’s 100% owned Big Smokey Valley (North) project
Geochemical sample points are being arranged on a grid pattern of 11 lines spaced 400 meters apart with stations every 200 meters along the lines.

August 4, 2016 / Vancouver, British Columbia- Nevada Energy Metals Inc. “the Company” (TSX-V: BFF; OTCQB: SSMLF) (Frankfurt: A2AFBV) is pleased to announce that a sampling program designed to test for lithium values in surface soils and/or playa evaporates has been initiated at the Company’s 100% owned Big Smokey Valley (North) project. Geochemical sample points are being arranged on a grid pattern of 11 lines spaced 400 meters apart with stations every 200 meters along the lines. It is expected that 170 sample points will be measured. Results should be available in approximately 3 weeks.

About the Big Smokey Valley (BSV) Lithium Project:

The BSV Lithium Project consists of 160 placer claims, 3,200 acres/1,295 hectares, located in northern Big Smokey Valley, Nye County, Nevada, 12 miles east of the town of Austin and extends approximately 100 miles in a southwesterly direction to reach a southern terminus near Clayton Valley. The northern section, where the claim area is located, contains three geothermal resources; the Darrough, the McLeod and the Spencer hot springs. Nevada Energy Metals has acquired a 100% interest in the property, free of royalty payments.

Historical gravity survey results indicate the depth of valley fill to be approximately 5,100 feet and that there is subsurface closure of the valley a short distance to the south of the claim block. The basin is fed by anomalous lithium bearing geothermal fluids interpreted to be meteoric waters heated by relatively deep circulation in the earth’s crust.

Historical sediment sampling results for lithium in the basin were reported in the range of 130 to 155 ppm lithium for 4 samples (J.R. Davis, U.S. Geological Survey, Denver, Co.)
