It demonstrates its flexibility in treating other\nfeeds using the same chemicals and process equipment that we used to\nproduce base metal EV salts.”\n \n \n \n \n “The company plans to reintegrate the precious metal\nleaching stage into the Re-2Ox process thereby making the process more\nviable. This precious metal production will permit the production of\nEV battery salts by-products at low or no cost. The Company will be\nworking closely with Granada Gold Mine Inc. in the coming months to\nuse the Re-2Ox process to further develop the potential market and\neconomics for the rubidium carbonate salts that would meet the EV\nbattery metals market sourcing needs.” Basa continued.\n \n \n \n \n Canada Silver Cobalt...
