Standard Lithium Achieves Key Milestone in Lithium Extraction Technology

Standard Lithium Ltd ( (TSE:SLI) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Smackover Lithium, a joint venture between Standard Lithium Ltd and Equinor, has successfully completed the final field-test of its Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) technology at the South West Arkansas project. This milestone marks a significant step towards commercialization, as the field-pilot plant exceeded key performance criteria, recovering over 99% of lithium from brine. Large volumes of the DLE product have been sent to third-party vendors for conversion into battery-quality lithium carbonate, which will be crucial in the qualification process with potential off-take partners. The successful completion of this derisking step enhances Standard Lithium’s industry positioning, demonstrating their capability to reliably process brine and produce high-quality lithium products, potentially impacting stakeholders positively by advancing towards commercialization.
