Continued Success Of Generation 5 Field Unit In Permian Basin

CALGARY- Volt Lithium Corp. reported on the continued success of its Generation 5 Field Unit in the Permian Basin, Texas, where the team has achieved up to 99% lithium extraction while evaluating and refining key operating parameters.

“The first 90 system tests have been critical in understanding the full capabilities of our Generation 5 Field Unit,” said, Alex Wylie, President & CEO. “We’re especially pleased that scaling up to a 10,000-barrel-per-day system continues to deliver 99% extraction results. These insights will guide our next steps toward automating the unit for greater throughput and cost optimization.”

Generation 5 Update: Largest DLE System Deployed: Generation 5 marks Volt’s most extensive and powerful DLE unit to date, transitioning quickly from modular assembly to a 10,000+ bpd operational capacity. High-Efficiency Extraction: The Company has conducted over 90 system tests to date, confirming up to 99% lithium recovery via internal NMR-based testing, which aligns with prior third-party validations of Volt’s extraction technology. Establishing Baseline for Automation: Current system tests focus on reagent usage, cycle time, and processing parameters that will inform near-future automation. Once fully implemented, automation is expected to further enhance throughput, reduce costs, and streamline continuous production. Lithium Stockpiling Initiated: Volt has begun stockpiling lithium concentrate in anticipation of commercial demand, creating an inventory that positions the Company for future customer engagement.
