• During the quarter, E3 Lithium completed construction of Phase 1 of its Demonstration Facility with
commissioning beginning on September 2 , 2025 . E3 Lithium achieved a major milestone with the
successful conversion of lithium chloride produced from the Demonstration Equipment to battery-grade
lithium carbonate with an average purity of 99.7%, validating the operational functionality of the
Company’s Direct Lithium Extraction (“DLE”) system and polishing and purification equipment across the
entire process flow.
Sale of Non-Core Saskatchewan Assets Strengthens Balance Sheet
• On September 30, 2025, E3 Lithium entered into an Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement with an arm’s
length private company, to sell the Company’s non -core, Saskatchewan based, Estevan Lithium District
assets for a total cash consideration of US$4. 3 million (C$6.0 million at current USD/CAD exchange
rates). The transaction is expected to close in late Q4 2025.
Subsequent Events
• In October, E3 Lithium closed a fully subscribed and upsized unit offering at a price of C$1.20 per unit for

5,836,250 warrants were issued.
• On October 16, 2025, E3 Lithium signed a non -binding memorandum of understanding (the “MOU”) with
Axens, a global provider of clean energy solutions and technologies, including Direct Lithium Extraction
(“DLE”) from brines that contemplates both the sale o f lithium carbonate by E3 Lithium to Axens (the
“Offtake”) and for Axens to supply E3 Lithium with a lithium selective sorbent (the “Sorbent”).
Demonstration Facility Phase 2 Site Construction and Drilling Underway
• On October 29, 2025, E3 Lithium commenced drilling of a lithium development well. This is E3 Lithium’s
third lithium well drilled into the Leduc Formation and will provide additional technical data to support
engineering and permitting work for E3 Lithium’s upcoming commercial facility.
