Clayton Valley
Esmeralda County, Nevada
Halfway between Las Vegas and Reno
Project Highlights
26,000 Acre Lithium Brine Project
Inferred Resource of 247,000 tonnes lithium hydroxide monohydrate
(218,000 tonnes Lithium Carbonate Equivalent) – June 2017
Lithium-bearing brine has been detected to a depth of 820 meters (2700 feet)
Adjacent to the only producing lithium mine in North America
Significant existing infrastructure
Brine Advantage
Brine is generally accepted as the lowest cost type of lithium resource to process. Pure Energy’s intention is to utilize innovative process technologies to recover and produce low-cost, high-quality lithium products.
- 21st Century Process Technology versus the “Conventional Evaporation Processes”
- Potential Recovery >90% vs <50%
- Independent of weather and climate
- Significantly shortens time to market – months to hours
- Smaller environmental footprint
- Predicted lower capital costs to build the plant (capex)
and lower operating costs (opex)
