POWR Lithium Celebrates Lithium Mining in Nevada
- The Silver State Positioned to be Number One in American Lithium
VANCOUVER, BC, July 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —POWR Lithium Corp. (CSE: POWR) (FRA:
6JX / WKN: A3D 6BS) (OTCQB: PWRLF) (“POWR” or the “Company”), a mineral exploration and
development company focused on American lithium deposits to support domestic demand, commends the
State of Nevada for their support of the lithium economy.
As the largest source of lithium deposits in North America, Nevada poses a suitable destination for
companies across the lithium processing spectrum, from mining, processing, recycling, and battery
manufacturing to develop their operations.
The American government has supported these efforts with b illions of dollars having been granted to
Nevada companies to help develop these operations. The Department of Energy (DOE) has provided $2
billion to Redwood Materials, a Carson City-based company developing a process of recycling used lithium
batteries. And Ioneer Rhyolite Ridge received support of up to $700 million from the DOE to support
development of their lithium mine and processing facility in Esmeralda County.
Investments are being made in the junior players as well. The DOE provided a $115 million grant to Reno-
based American Battery Technology Company (POWR Lithium’s adjacent western neighbor) to build a
battery manufacturing plant. American Lithium, POWR’s northern neighbor, has received over $17 million
to develop their lithium processing facilities.
“The U.S. has a very low capacity to actually make these critical materials domestically and Congress
authorized thes e funds to help build up this capacity,” said Ryan Melsert, CEO of American Battery
Technology Company.
Company CEO, Patrick Morris , comments, “ We applaud the development of the lithium economy in
Nevada. Being in the same state, and in some cases, directly adjacent to, these established companies, is
inspiring. It gives us a road map for our projects and for developing shareholder value.”
