Slide 6: Paradox Brine Project: Exploration
PARADOX BRINE PROJECT: EXPLORATION ▪ Review of historical drilling data confirms a massive, supersaturated brine aquifer in the Mississippian Leadville For personal use only Limestone within the Paradox Project claims at approx. 8,000 ft. Leadville Limestone Porosit Density Brine Li Grade Li Li2CO3
Slide 7: Environment, Social & Governance
Environment, Social & Governance ESG For personal use only
Slide 8: How to build an ESG sustainable mining project?
Issue : How to build a ESG sustainable mining project ? For personal use only Objectives: Adopt new “sustainable” technologies – extraction & processing Produce a “ESG” product that will gain acceptance in the market Minimal disturbance to the physical environment, recreational environment a
Slide 9: Unconventional Li Resource Provides Advantage
UNCONVENTIONAL LI RESOURCE PROVIDES ADVANTAGE For personal use only ▪ Located in Utah, USA in the Paradox Basin ▪ Brine to be extracted from 6,500 feet not in a salar or salt lake ▪ Not from and oil and gas horizon, but from a salt clastic level ▪ Brine flows to the surface under its own pressure an
Slide 10: Roberts Rupture is the source of the brine and of energy
Roberts Rupture is not only the source of the brine but a source of energy ! For personal use only 10 ASX: ASN
Slide 11: "Sustainable" Extraction
“Sustainable” Extraction For personal use only ▪ Natural over-pressuring (4,500psi) used to bring the brine to the surface without pumping minimising emissions ▪ Technology and engineering applied to maximise flow rate while retaining sufficient pressure to transport brine to processing plant
Slide 12: "Sustainable" Extraction
“Sustainable” Extraction ▪ At surface For personal use only ▪ a well-head and connected to a large diameter pipe that will transport the brine to processing ▪ A solar panel to power a valve should the flow need to be stopped ▪ No pumping, no generators, no fuel storage
Slide 13: "Sustainable" Transport of Brine
“SUSTAINABLE” TRANSPORT OF BRINE For personal use only ▪ By taking advantage of the high-pressure engineers have been able to reduce the number of extraction wells ▪ Extraction from existing wells would have resulted in new ground disturbance 13 ASX: ASN
Slide 14: "Sustainable" Transport of Brine
“SUSTAINABLE” TRANSPORT OF BRINE For personal use only ▪ Social impact of the project have also been taken into consideration ▪ Area around the well sites is used by people for camping, hiking, bicycling etc ▪ By taking advantage of the high-pressure engineers have been able to reduce the number of
Slide 15: "Sustainable" Processing
“Sustainable” Processing ▪ Traditional Method Solar For personal use only Evaporation ▪ Up to 12-18 months to evaporate ▪ Test work conducted on site resulted in waste that needed to be trucked away for disposal ▪ Pumping required added to the emissions calculations as well as costs
Slide 16: "Sustainable" Processing - Direct Lithium Extraction
“Sustainable” Processing ▪ Technology Solution – Direct Lithium For personal use only Extraction (DLE) ▪ Lithium only selected by resin (Absorption) - 6 hours ▪ Pure water is used to wash lithium from resin (Desorption) -3 hours ▪ Production water sourced from the brine ▪ No pre-treatment chemicals
Slide 17: "Sustainable" Infrastructure in Place
“SUSTAINABLE” INFRASTRUCTURE IN PLACE For personal use only ▪ Existing 30 mile pipeline corridor from wells to production site to be used to transport brine to the processing plant ▪ No additional surface disturbance 17 ASX: ASN
Slide 18: "Sustainable" Infrastructure in Place
“SUSTAINABLE” INFRASTRUCTURE IN PLACE ▪ Production site near to road, For personal use only rail, gas and electrical infrastructure ▪ Minimal additional ground disturbance 18 ASX: ASN
Slide 19: Governance - USA Well Regulated
GOVERNANCE – USA WELL REGULATED ▪ Total combined Federal & State ground 95 For personal use only square kilometers ▪ 1,084 Bureau of Land Management (BLM) federal government unpatented placer claims ▪ 2 State of Utah mineral lease, 3 SITLA sections & 80 acres partial section. ▪ 3 State of Utah Indus
Slide 20: Paradox Brine Project: ESG Next Step
PARADOX BRINE PROJECT: ESG NEXT STEP For personal use only • Significant potential exist to further improve the ESG of the project including energy usage, water usage which are part of the engineering studies that are underway • As part of its continual improvement agenda Anson will examine differen
