E3 Metals are a Petro-Lithium company who’re rapidly advancing the development of direct recovery lithium brine projects in Alberta. E3 Metals holds lithium resources at 6.7 Mt LCE (inferred). The Company has a compelling competitive advantage by virtue of having access to extensive infrastructure built by the Oil and Gas industry in Alberta.
This has provided E3 Metals with low finding costs, as the Company has been able to sample existing wells to define its resource. This infrastructure may also provide wells and pipelines for a future lithium production operation, potentially reducing the Company’s future capital requirements. The Company’s immediate goal is to demonstrate a commercially viable chemical concentration process and believes this is a key driver to commercial production of its Alberta lithium brine resources.
in the last 24 hours, the company have announced a new joint venture with Comstock Metals (TSXV: CSL) (“Comstock”). The joint venture will look to acquire and develop further prospective mineral assets in the battery metal space. Comstock brings a wealth of experience and specific contacts to support the acquisition and development of quality mineral resources in North America.
With the continued advancement of E3 Metals’ direct brine lithium extraction technology, the Company is seeking additional opportunities to deploy its technology. E3 Metals will provide the technical exploration and engineering expertise to evaluate prospective projects. As part of the agreement, Comstock’s President, CEO and Director Steven Goldman will join E3 Metals as an advisor.
E3 Metals President and CEO Chris Doornbos said:
“This agreement with Comstock will enable a number of strategic growth and diversification opportunities to advance. The addition of Steven Goldman as an advisor will enhance the Company’s development and financing capacity as we grow the partnership”
“The battery metal sector, and the Petro-Lithium sector in particular, is at an inflection point. We believe that the combination of technological innovation, the acquisition and development of substantial resources, and the growing demand, are at the early stages of exponential growth and will require ongoing innovation, planning and collaboration to fulfill its potential. Partnerships like the one entered into between E3 Metals and Comstock Metals will lay the foundation for that growth.”
Steven Goldman, President, CEO and Director of Comstock followed this:
“We have spent considerable time getting to know the team at E3 Metals and what they have accomplished to date in the Petro-lithium space. We have been impressed. This has ultimately led us to mutually agree that by working together, and combining our networks, skill sets and focus we will be able to achieve greater success for both of our shareholder bases.”
