Heads up buddy boy I have 400 shares of E3 I have $400 in e3 I spent 3X that on fireworks the other day. I have less than $10K in Syaxf. I have a handfull of ibatf
shares. My only lithium stock I care about is Pilbara, which I bought under a dollar long ago..

I told you 2-years ago lithium prices would crash. I told you and eveyone else on my lithium board I was getting out of lithium.
https://investorshub.advfn.com/LITHIUM-STOCKS-AND-CHARTS-38501

I trade TSLA, NVDA, ENVX, QS, AMPX and others.

Burba says he needs to make $17,000 a ton. Go back and watch the videos. It's not worth my time with the few shares I have.
$9000 a ton won't make anyone money.


I'm here to watch the never ending story.

Production going well? Not sure after IBATF got the notice if IBATF fails they are out 6-months later. IBATF hanging by a thread. That contract is garbage and everyone knows it.

[D8c00p3r]

Ok?

Fact: The unit is on-site currently producing. Simple math on a best case basis 30 days continuous production out of 4k tpa would = 328 tonnes at a rate of 10.96 per day...

given pricing ranges from $10-24/kg depending on who you want to read it from I'd say US Mag and IBAT are doing just fine running the technology to get actual data before "making a production announcement" but what do I know I've only been following IBAT since 2018

Fact: Eramet is on-site currently producing

Fact: E3 has third party technology and will never realize profits because the project is too expensive

Fact: Will need you to fill this one in on how Ensorcia or Burba are responsible for any P&D activity, I can't find those facts.

Fact: BHE & Terralithium are extending to Smackover

Fact: Sayona is a 4x failed project spanning decades.

Opinion: You should take a vacation

[TradingCharts]

Warrents at E3, same thing that took down IBATF.

I would be more concerned about why Daniel Layton is doing a pump and dump video with Burba, when production started..

I'll never buy another share after that foolishness.
https://ceo.ca/insiders?filters%5Bterms%5D=Ibat

[D8c00p3r]

Good to see E3 finally being valued closer to reality.

That PFS is hilarious, glad the Doc is veteran enough to know not to touch a failed project from the start.

These QP can't make a "final" adjustment to their estimates STILL...$30/kg pricing? Really? No wonder banks don't use these reports.

Will be a nice change of tune for DLE once the production numbers come from IBAT and Eramet.

Someone do math on minimum wage for all those Eramet employees and run that against a $15-$20/kg figure. Seems the PR provided OPEX is a bit way off 🤣

Thanks! Enjoyed reading the progress report with expansion plans already at US MAG and additional plans for the Smackover region.
The lack of progress report for item 11 was less pleasing.
Two years and two months of legal wrangling. Seems to be a case of the lawyers looking to maximize their compensation.

Well, SQM will choose 2 pilot DLEs now being tested now..Hmmm..IBAT first pilot is currently being tested in Utah at UD Mag Plant for last months..I would assume Burba Tech is one of the 2 pilot DLEs that Diaz/Chile will choose. Sorcia/Daniel Laytons Chilian connections...Im being a little presumptous here..but why not? I believe the fireworks is about to start for IBAT! Burba says 2 to 3 months after the numbers come in for first MDLE pilot Utah plant.. Then we can start waving the Flags..Im waving them Now! Happy Fourth Everyone!

Texas Standard article - Potential lithium boom simmers in East Texas
Posted by Sam Goodman on March 6, 2024
https://gohaynesvilleshale.com/forum/topics/texas-standard-article-potential-lithium-boom-simmers-in-east

Texas Standard: You recently took a close look at the emerging lithium industry in East Texas. Let me first just ask “why?” Why is this part of the state getting attention as a place to potentially mine lithium?

Samuel Shaw: It is getting attention because some of the highest grades of lithium, or I should say the highest grade of lithium sampled anywhere in North America was in deep East Texas, just by the Louisiana border. And then another sample was taken, which was even higher, just a bit west of that in Franklin County, in a formation called the Smackover.

The United States produces just 1% of global lithium. Most of that comes at the moment from Australia, the lithium triangle and, South America and China.

[TradingCharts]

Now I have to look for permits.

Happy 4th of July everyone.

Supreme Court strikes down Chevron, curtailing power of federal agencies
on Jun 28, 2024

In a major ruling, the Supreme Court on Friday cut back sharply on the power of federal agencies to interpret the laws they administer and ruled that courts should rely on their own interpretion of ambiguous laws. The decision will likely have far-reaching effects across the country, from environmental regulation to healthcare costs.

[Harbor6460]

Read it from 1st post till last. I was able to sneak in free somehow again. Burba has things lined up

[Harbor6460]

Burba said the numbers from US Magnesium should be coming in over the next two to three months. "Once we're through startup phase, and it's run for a reasonable amount of time, we'll start waving the victory flags."

[Harbor6460]

A transportable plant would be especially beneficial for the large fields in the Smackover formation in Louisiana, Texas and Arkansas, said Burba, because it would negate the need to construct expensive pipelines to handle the brine. Because of the lower cost of the facility, lithium in the 200 to 350 parts per million range could make a good return on the investment, versus the 600 ppm more traditional companies are seeking.

What about required permits? Like the lithium royalty structure, they are still unknown. However, Burba confirms a discussion in Texas was very hopeful. "We've been talking to several different groups interested in working with us. Because we are not putting foundations in, we're not burying pipe, it's all transportable, the Railroad Commission in Texas has indicated that it's essentially the same thing as drilling equipment. It's kind of a non-event."

[Harbor6460]

Burba touts two big benefits to the IBAT process. First is that no acid-based chemicals or solvents of any kind must be used. Second is that very little water is used. Of the water that is used, Burba says roughly 98% is recycled to use again. "When the water goes through the system it is clean water like drinking water and the solution that comes out is this high concentration lithium chloride solution with some impurities. The water is just recycled right back into our loop. We'll get about 10% to 14% lithium chloride solution. We would use a small evaporator to get the water out of it, boost it up to about 36% for shipment and then condense that water."

More traditional modes of lithium extraction — hard rock mining and evaporative mining — use "astronomical" amounts of water, and the water that is left over, Burba said, is filled with contaminants.

[Harbor6460]

The plant at US Magnesium took a couple of months to set up. "Now we're in testing, we've commissioned it and are just entering startup. I'm anticipating it going full out in another 4 to 6 weeks. From the time we set the equipment down to having it up and operational was less than 6 months." Burba said the transportable plant is a fraction of the price of a traditional plant, and it can be moved afterward.

Next comes the Direct Lithium Extraction, and IBAT's patented processes. This is where it gets complicated and Burba's inner physical chemist professor comes out. The process is an absorption system "that uses a crystalline material that has very tiny holes within the structure of the compound and lithium can go into the holes — when you wash it in the water, it comes out in the water," Burba said. Lithium, which is the smallest metal ion in the periodic table, is the only thing that will fit in the holes.

[Harbor6460]

Direct Lithium Extraction — or DLE — is not new or unique. It's the process of capturing lithium ions and separating those ions from the other — often nasty and dangerous stuff — they are in. Because brine is so toxic and so corrosive, the plants that distill the lithium are built near the source of the brine so it will not have to be transported. Remember that brine is so highly corrosive it is normally kept out of trucks and pipelines.

IBAT has developed a modular, transportable plant that can be set up on under two acres of stable soil, with no concrete foundations or dozens of construction workers or days off for bad weather. "A traditional plant will typically take 4 to 6 years to build," Burba said. "We built this plant in 10 months. If you roll engineering and procurement into it, you're probably 16 to 18 months, all in. Once we're really locked down on all our basic engineering, it will be less than a year. That is a huge time to market advantage."

[Harbor6460]

It is somewhat ironic that lithium, now one of the world's most highly sought after minerals, is now being found in brine, a product once considered mostly worthless that is generally injected back into the ground to make it "go away."

Dr. John Burba

For the past several months, Dr. Burba has been on and off in Salt Lake City, Utah at US Magnesium with 35 trucks driven from The Shaw Group's fabrication yard in Lake Charles. The Shaw Group and Burner Fire Control in Lafayette built a prototype that IBAT is now testing in Utah, a prototype that changes almost everything about the type of facility needed to extract lithium as well as the way it is extracted.

With all the competing press releases dropping on a weekly basis about "New!" "Better!" "Best!" lithium technology, being heard above that fray is a challenge. "We're a startup company, we're small, our balance sheet is pretty skimpy. It's new, and you get this 'How do I know this is really going to work?' I think what we're demonstrating with US Magnesium is going to be a giant lift for us." Burba believes it is the proverbial better mousetrap

[Harbor6460]

The world's largest producer of lithium and a player in the north Louisiana/Arkansas Smackover Formation says that current lithium prices — which have fallen to a low not seen since 2021 — are "unsustainable" and cannot support spending on new plants, Bloomberg reported this week.

Officials with Albemarle Corp., which has a plant in Magnolia, Arkansas that is focused on the lithium play, made the comments at an industry conference in Las Vegas. But though current prices are down, Albemarle CEO Kent Masters said that long term growth for the "limited supply" of lithium — used in batteries that power the growing electric vehicle market worldwide — is "significant."

The timing of lower lithium prices and concern over the costs of traditional lithium plants could be a jump start for International Battery Metals, or IBAT, based in Houston, Texas.

Physical chemist Dr. John Burba is the the founder and chief technology officer for IBAT. His life has been a study of how and why chemical reactions work, and his focus for 40 years has been on lithium and salt water brine — a drilling by product that contains minerals and other far more environmentally hazardous contaminants such as salts, oil, and drilling injection water. Lithium has been found in quantity in Arkansas and Texas, and the same geological formation — called Smackover — extends into north Louisiana. Mineral consultant Skip Peel tells The Shreveport-Bossier City Advocate that the brine in the north Louisiana Smackover is not only caustic but also contains dangerous hydrogen sulfide.

Yesterday I had the honor of participating in the last module on the Chilean Mining Code, reviewing the recent reforms 40 years after its promulgation, with a special focus on environmental aspects and the permit system of the University of Chile. These modifications are fundamental for the future of the mining industry.

It was an exceptional event that allowed me, as a teacher, to connect with prominent professionals in the Chilean mining sector, former colleagues and, of course, some brilliant students.

I wish to express my sincere gratitude to all the participants, especially to the illustrious professors Cristián Quinzio, Maria Paz Pulgar and Abel Piñones, whose collaboration was essential for my participation.

A special thank you to lawyer Jose Tomas Gutierrez Ginesta, whose dedication and care in preparing the materials for this exhibition were invaluable. 💪

Thank you all and I hope to see you next time. 😉

Our Direct Lithium Extraction Technology has been certified by several institutions and has proven to be remarkably efficient in separating lithium and chlorine with brines of different qualities and locations around the world.
In this way, this technology allows more lithium to be produced, with lower production costs and less brine extraction. It should be noted that, in addition, it is capable of re-injecting up to 92% of the remaining brine (without lithium and chlorine), thus reducing its environmental impact to almost a minimum.

IT'S ALL GOOD !!! Typical "TURNAROUND" oil refinery term. It always takes time and can be done onsite and more complex modifications are having to be fabricated at Shaw and expedited to US Mag.
Turnarounds are almost always behind schedule and not considered completed until everything is 100% and works as advertised.
ie: heat trace needs to be installed, big ass pipe has to be bent at Shaw, instrumentation / automation has to be installed and programmed at all valves, temp sensors, flow switches by electricians, pipefitters, priming and painting… operating engineers, maintenance crew trained for 2 or 3 work shifts…

La paradoja del litio:¿Electromovilidad a qué costo?
June 19, 2024
https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/la-paradoja-del-litioelectromovilidad-qu%2525C3%2525A9-costo-rodrigo-dupouy-hjh1e/?trackingId=Hm9CcMYtUQ4iGyo1UeOppg%3D%3D
Translation

The transition to electromobility is one of the fundamental pillars for a cleaner and more sustainable future. In this context, lithium emerges as the undisputed star, being the main raw material for the manufacture of batteries used in electric vehicles and other energy storage devices. However, the question we must ask ourselves is: what is the environmental cost we are willing to pay to obtain it?
Lithium extraction, either from hard rock or through gigantic evaporation pools in salt flats, has been shown to have a significant environmental impact. According to a recent study by the bank J.P. Morgan , Australia currently produces 354 thousand tons of lithium carbonate equivalent per year, followed by China with 229 thousand tons and Chile with 215 thousand. Between the three countries, they dominate practically all the world's lithium production, and in all of them the extraction process is, at the very least, unfriendly to nature.
Delicate ecosystems, especially in regions such as the Salar de Atacama in Chile, are severely affected by the extraction methods that are used. A study by the Directorate of Scientific and Technological Research of the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (UC) (Dictuc) estimates that the production of one ton of lithium carbonate generates up to four tons of greenhouse gases. In addition, the massive extraction of brine, which is not replenished to the salt flat after lithium separation, adds one more layer of concern. Everything evaporates. Nothing comes back.
The solution is not to abandon lithium production, as its role in reducing carbon emissions is undeniable. However, it is critical that both public and private actors understand and prioritize the development of projects that use more sustainable technologies. It is possible to produce more lithium with a lower environmental impact, and that is the key to a truly sustainable future.
That is why we need to approach lithium extraction with a sustainable vision. Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) technology is presented as a viable and realistic solution, because it means more efficient production, with less consumption of resources and with the reinjection of a large percentage of the remaining brine into the salt flats from which the lithium was extracted, which means returning water and microorganisms to the ecosystem.
President Gabriel Boric, in his speech on April 20, 2023, highlighted the challenge for Chile to become the world's largest lithium producer by 2030, stressing the importance of advancing in "the use of new lithium extraction technologies, which minimize the impact on the ecosystems of the salt flats." Science and technology, as crucial tools, will allow the development of the best extraction techniques.
Lithium extraction must be as environmentally friendly as its fruits are expected to be: more sustainable energy production and storage. The urgency is real, and the path towards responsible electromobility involves adopting and promoting technologies that allow a balance between development and environmental preservation

EV Metals still willing to fund an additional private placement allowing IBAT to purchase capacity expanding components for their US Mag location. I feel better

It was the first time Layton did a video with Burba.

Layton, then sold into the news, most done in private. Which the buyer can sell anytime.

Float is getting bigger.

But Jacob bought at his fixed price.

Your Ensorcia post took me back to my school days and the five "W"s...Who, What, Why, When and Where. I got half a Who (Ensorcia/"Private")...most of the what (exercising warrants and closing position)...a hint at why ("Leave to Stay")...When (Yesterday)...Where (Market). Later in life, i learned a shortcut to the W questions by incorporating beverages of varying proof and using the three "H"s...Huh?, How?, Hmm? While a shorter list, I find myself stuck on the "Huh"?
Hoping a press release will make everything clear.
