HIGHLIGHTS-AZL to deploy the first ever Koch Technology Solutions (KTS) Li-Pro commercial-scale “quad pod” unit at the Prairie Project in Saskatchewan this year. This represents the largest Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) process ever deployed by KTS and the first commercial-scale production at Arizona Lithium’s Prairie Project.-Koch Technology Solutions is a subsidiary of Koch, Inc., the second-largest privately held company in the United States, based in Wichita, Kansas. The company is a US-based leader in the innovation of DLE and will be a valuable partner for AZL.-Duperow brine from Pad #1 was tested with KTS’s Li-Pro technology and highlighted exceptional results with approximately 98% lithium retention and an average 99% rejection of impurities such as Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Potassium (K)and Sodium (Na).-De-risking allows production to be increased by replication of additional Li-Pro units at Pad #1, followed by further deployment of commercial facilities at Pad #2 and Pad #3. Additional Pad locations are also currently being identified for imminent future development.-The Prairie Project in Canada is well positioned to feed battery-grade lithium carbonate into the mature Asian battery market and the rapidly developing North American battery sector. Battery grade samples produced from the Prairie Project are currently being distributed and tested in Asia.1
