(Community update)...A presentation on an update on Imperial Valley Lithium Development.

The presentation was hosted by BHE Renewables and TerraLithium. The community meeting was held at Imperial Valley College. Representatives from both companies shared information about direct lithium extraction technology, demonstration-scale project activities and recent technical milestones achieved through the joint venture. Among the milestones, the successful production of Lithium Chloride from geothermal brine and its subsequent processing into battery-grade lithium carbonate, as well as the direct conversion of lithium chloride into lithium hydroxide. They said these achievements help validate the technology and support future engineering, scale-up assessments and project planning activities.
