Lithium Industry Connections is a meeting between a lithium clay junior miner, a lithium geological specialist, and a processing company with new technology adapted to lithium clays. Join us as we three discuss: 1. the state of the industry 2. the exploration project, 3. how the project fits into regional geological context, 4. the processing technology, 5. how the processing tech connects to the claystone, 6. a general conversation This is certainly an insider's perspective you won't want to miss! We'll see you there.

[Speaker identities could not be resolved; generic labels used] [00:01] Speaker 1: All right [00:03] Speaker 2: Let's see. Yes, so we'll start with the intros. My name is Michael Kelly. I've spent my whole life in, California I'm in the Sacramento area [00:12] Speaker 2: and I used to be a electronic technician. [00:15] Speaker 2: I spent about 11 years in military simulators [00:19] Speaker 2: and Then I went to work for Intel [00:22] Speaker 2: and I was in product validation So I validated that the product meets all the design goals [00:29] Speaker 2: and giving the green light to manufacturing [00:32] Speaker 2: in the latest part [00:34] Speaker 2: I worked in the clocking center of excellence and I did the timing of all the clocks on phone chips and server chips. [00:40] Speaker 2: And so boatloads of data, boatloads of data. [00:46] Speaker 2: So then I retired in 2016 [00:48] Speaker 2: and went back to school for geology [00:51] Speaker 2: and I worked at lithium I worked on Ion Ears [00:56] Speaker 2: Rhyolite Ridge lithium project with [00:59] Speaker 2: Mark Travis was there for part of it. He was on a hydrology part. [01:03] Speaker 2: And [01:04] Speaker 2: then I did some offshore gigs. I did some hydrology gigs with [01:09] Speaker 2: new fields as who I was being contracted by. [01:14] Speaker 2: And I did a year and a half in Fairbanks. [01:17] Speaker 2: And lately, I've been looking for lithium in Nevada [01:23] Speaker 2: or all around the West and [01:25] Speaker 2: we're looking also into [01:27] Speaker 2: uranium now because the lithium markets a little bit flooded. [01:35] Speaker 1: All right, [01:36] Speaker 1: I'm James, James DiGrafia, [01:38] Speaker 1: a lithium geologist [01:41] Speaker 1: in this market. [01:44] Speaker 1: By trainin...
