E3 Lithium (ETL.V) on Monday said it commissioned Phase 2 of its Clearwater project demonstration facility and continues to operate the reservoir production test.
Lithium analysis of the brine produced from the production test confirmed 75.8 milligrams per liter of lithium, demonstrating the continued consistency of the brine chemistry across the Clearwater and greater Bashaw District.
The current operations at the demonstration facility are facilitating a reservoir test to confirm flow parameters over an extended period.
The demonstration-facility operations have achieved stable brine production and injection through the well-pair. During initial operations, the wellbore maintained the targeted flow rate of 1,400 cubic meters per day at steady state.
The data collected from this part of the operations will support the reservoir development plan update, supporting the feasibility study. The data collected will support E3's ongoing engineering work, including the completion of front-end engineering design and feasibility study for the Clearwater project.
The company's shares were last seen up $0.04 to $1.21 on the TSX Venture Exchange.
