The year 2022 has been marked by substantial progress at the Company's Clayton Valley lithium brine
project in central Nevada. With our partner, Schlumberger Technology Corporation ("SLB"), the modified
Operating Plan for the on-site pilot plant was approved by the Bureau of Land Management, with
concurrent approvals from the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection, and with additional
approvals from various state agencies. Pure Energy received a finite-term water right in late 2018 with
sufficient capacity for pilot plant testing. Permitting progress was somewhat slowed by covid restrictions
and changes in agency personnel.
However, we are pleased with the progress towards the CV pilot
plant – it will be the first of its kind in Nevada and likewise the first to implement Direct Lithium Extraction
technology ("DLE") there.
The advantages of DLE technology are clear, and well suited to Clayton Valley lithium brines. Of
particular importance are its efficiency in recovering lithium from brine in a matter of days vs. more than a
year in conventional ponds; significant recovery of precious, clean water resources for reintroduction into
the valley's aquifer; plus, a much reduced footprint and environmental impact.
About Pure Energy
Pure Energy Minerals is a lithium resource developer that is driven to become a low-cost supplier for the
growing lithium battery industry.
Pure Energy has consolidated a pre-eminent land position at its Clayton
Valley Project in the Clayton Valley of central Nevada for the exploration and development of lithium
resources, comprising 950 claims over 23,360 acres (9,450 hectares), representing the largest mineral
land holdings in the valley.
Pure Energy's Clayton Valley Project adjoins and surrounds on three sides the
Silver Peak lithium brine mine operated by Albemarle Corporation.
Pure Energy's strategic partner, Schlumberger Technologies Corporation ("SLB"), is the operator of the
Clayton Valley Project. In May of 2019, Pure Energy and SLB signed an Earn-In agreement over the CV
Project which requires significant investment by SLB at the Project, to include the design and
construction of a pilot plant capable of processing lithium-bearing brines for high-quality lithium hydroxide
monohydrate ("lithium hydroxide" or "LiOH∙H2O") and/or lithium carbonate products at a specified rate.
SLB plans to utilize both in-house and commercially available technology in the design of the CV pilot
plant. SLB's costs, technical parameters and ultimate technology are anticipated to differ from the
published PEA. For further details regarding SLB's participation, please refer to Pure Energy's Annual
General and Special Meeting Management Information Circular dated April 4, 2019, available on
