BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA / ACCESSWIRE / November 25, 2024 / NOA Lithium Brines Inc. (TSX-V:NOAL)(FSE:N7N) (" NOA " or the " Company ") is pleased to provide an update on the significant progress of its flagship, Rio Grande Project (the " Rio Grande Project " or the " Project "). The Company has sent brine samples from the Project to a select few direct lithium extraction (" DLE ") supplies, of which XtraLit Ltd. (" XtraLit ") was one. XtraLit has a patented DLE process based on ion-exchange technology which consists of sorption, washing, desorption and post-desorption washing steps to process the brine. XtraLit completed its initial process test-work using its patented DLE technology on brine samples from the Company's Rio Grande's Project and provided promising initial results.

阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯 / ACCESSWIRE / 2024年11月25日 / NOA锂盐水公司(TSX-V:NOAL)(FSE:N7N)(" NOA " 或 " 公司 ")很高兴提供其旗舰项目——里约格兰德项目(" 里约格兰德项目 " 或 " 项目 ")的重大进展更新。公司已将项目的盐水样本送往少数几个直接锂提取(" DLE ")供应商,其中XtraLit有限公司(" XtraLit ")为其中之一。XtraLit拥有一项基于离子交换技术的专利DLE工艺,该工艺包括吸附、洗涤、解吸和解吸后洗涤步骤来处理盐水。XtraLit利用其专利DLE技术对来自公司里约格兰德项目的盐水样本进行了初步工艺测试,并提供了有希望的初步结果。

Highlights of the XtraLit results include:

XtraLit结果的亮点包括:

  • Results: The outcome of XtraLit's DLE technology using its proprietary process recovered more than 91% of the lithium contained in the brine samples from Rio Grande.

  • Testing: Additionally, XtraLit's technology was very selective and effective in the extraction of lithium and the rejection of impurities (>98%) like magnesium, sodium, chlorine and others.

  • 结果:XtraLit使用其专有工艺的DLE技术从里约格兰德的盐水样本中回收了超过91%的锂。

  • 测试:此外,XtraLit的技术在锂的提取和杂质(>98%)如镁、钠、氯等的拒绝方面表现出很好的选择性和效果。

NOA's Chief Executive Officer, Gabriel Rubacha states: "Our Rio Grande Project already demonstrated the potential with a robust resource of 4.7 million tons of lithium carbonate equivalent at 525 milligrams per litre, which gives NOA the flexibility to develop the project using evaporation or DLE processes. Results received from XtraLit together with a recent announcement from Litica whereby they used an evaporation process to produce lithium carbonate from brines from the Rio Grande salar at its pilot plant, continue to confirm the potential of our flagship project. We continue the development of the project with the target of a Preliminary Economic Evaluation (PEA) of the Project during 2025."

NOA首席执行官Gabriel Rubacha表示:“我们的里约格兰德项目已经展示了470万吨锂碳酸盐当量的强大资源潜力,浓度为每升525毫克,这为NOA提供了使用蒸发或DLE工艺开发项目的灵活性。XtraLit提供的结果以及Litica最近的公告(他们使用蒸发工艺从里约格兰德的盐湖在试点厂生产锂碳酸盐)继续确认我们旗舰项目的潜力。我们将继续开发该项目,目标是在2025年对项目进行初步经济评估(PEA)。

DLE Process Evaluation

DLE工艺评估

NOA has been working with a select few DLE providers. Results received from XtraLit show high recovery and rejection rates (>91% and >98% respectively).

NOA一直在与少数DLE供应商合作。来自XtraLit的结果显示出高回收率和拒绝率(分别超过91%和98%)。

As shown in the process flow below, brine sent to be tested in XtraLit's facilities contained 458 milligrams per litre and the eluate released contained 4,400 milligrams per litre of lithium concentration, which demonstrated the potential of the process for our Rio Grande Project.

如下过程流程所示,送往XtraLit设施进行测试的盐水中锂浓度为每升458毫克,而释放的洗脱液中锂浓度为每升4400毫克,这证明了该过程在我们Rio Grande项目中的潜力。
