Agreement Value:

$99,700.00

Agreement Date:

Sep 1, 2023 - Apr 30, 2024

Description:

As part of the international consortium project “DLEIX: CANDLE lithium Corporation-pilot production of lithium selective sorbents”, this project will focus on the following: CANDLE Lithium Corporation (CANDLE) has developed a patent pending process to isolate Li from a variety of brines including Li-bearing oilfield brines found in Alberta. The lithium product can be then used in batteries, after a series of polishing and crystallization. The process benefits from a highly selective ion exchange material which has been developed by CANDLE. In a joint effort with our manufacturing partner, CANDLE seeks to manufacture this material at commercial scale and use it in its lithium extraction projects.
