CENTURY LITHIUM REPORTS ON LITHIUM CARBONATE FROM PILOT PLANT

Century Lithium Corp. Announces Positive Assay Results from Lithium Carbonate Production at Pilot Plant

VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ – Century Lithium Corp. (TSXV: LCE) (OTCQX: CYDVF) (Frankfurt: C1Z) is pleased to report assay results of the initial lithium carbonate produced at the newly commissioned lithium carbonate plant within the Company’s Lithium Extraction Facility (Pilot Plant) in Amargosa Valley, Nevada, USA. The Pilot Plant is an essential component of the Company’s 100%-owned Angel Island Project in Nevada. Assays conducted on five individual batches of lithium carbonate produced during the initial startup showed purity levels as high as 99.2%.

President and CEO, Bill Willoughby, expressed his satisfaction with the results, stating, “For an initial run, these results are very encouraging. Lithium carbonate with a purity greater than 99.5% is typically considered battery grade. These results show we are close and have identified steps to improve further. Also, importantly, where we previously shipped concentrated lithium solution to be treated offsite, we are now able to do this at the Pilot Plant and show we have an end-to-end process that works.”

During the startup phase, five 40-liter batches of concentrated lithium solution were processed in the lithium carbonate plant, which included precipitation with sodium carbonate, washing, and drying of the lithium carbonate. With input from Hargrove Engineers and Constructors, adjustments were made that resulted in reduced sodium and other impurities. Over the five batches processed, the purity of the final lithium carbonate increased in each test to a peak of 99.2%, with calcium and magnesium identified as the main non-lithium constituents.

The operation of the lithium carbonate plant at the Pilot Plant following the treatment of the five test batches revealed an equipment contamination that is believed to be responsible for the calcium and magnesium levels in the final lithium carbonate. The Company expects that these impurity levels will be reduced in further testing.

Century continues to work on the Pilot Plant, focusing on design and engineering that can support reduced capital requirements in the overall process.

Mental health is a topic that has gained more attention in recent years, and for good reason. The impact of mental health on individuals and society as a whole cannot be overstated. In the workplace, mental health awareness is especially important as it can affect employee well-being, productivity, and overall success.

One of the key reasons why mental health awareness is crucial in the workplace is because of the prevalence of mental health issues among employees. According to the World Health Organization, depression and anxiety disorders are the most common mental health conditions worldwide, and they can have a significant impact on a person’s ability to perform their job effectively. By promoting mental health awareness in the workplace, employers can create a supportive environment for employees who may be struggling with these conditions.

Additionally, mental health awareness can help reduce the stigma surrounding mental health issues in the workplace. Many employees may feel hesitant to seek help for their mental health concerns due to fear of judgment or repercussions from their employer. By fostering a culture of openness and understanding around mental health, employers can encourage employees to seek the support they need without fear of negative consequences.

Furthermore, promoting mental health awareness in the workplace can lead to increased productivity and job satisfaction among employees. When employees feel supported and valued by their employer, they are more likely to be engaged in their work and perform at their best. This can ultimately benefit the organization as a whole by improving employee retention and overall performance.

In conclusion, mental health awareness in the workplace is crucial for creating a supportive and inclusive environment for all employees. By promoting mental health awareness, employers can help reduce the stigma surrounding mental health issues, improve employee well-being, and enhance overall productivity and success in the workplace. It is essential for organizations to prioritize mental health awareness and provide resources and support for employees who may be struggling with mental health issues.
