........Working in concert with US Magnesium LLC, IBAT is now commercially producing Lithium using its patented and tested DLE Technology and production equipment......Success in this arena of endeavor will speak volumes for the efficacy of their achievements.....The inventive abilities of Dr. Burba (et al) have been put on display in a very harsh and demanding environment, I believe, to further prove their merit and mettle, industrially and environmentally..........an invaluable contribution !.........
