    I am confused on what Li extraction technology LithiumBank is actually intending to proceed with, giving this news they released on their website on April 14th: ( my bold formatting below)

    "Lithiumbank confirms up to 95% lithium recovery and over 99% impurity rejection from DLE pilot testing using SLB’s integrated lithium production solution technology on Boardwalk and Park Place brines

    Highlights:

    • Up to 95% lithium recovery from pilot testing of Boardwalk and Park Place brines.
    • Greater than 99% overall combined impurity rejection, rejecting 98.80% of boron, 99.97% of calcium, 99.96% of magnesium, 99.98% of potassium, 99.98% of sodium, and 99.97% of strontium (Table 2).
    • Boardwalk and Park Place piloting campaigns combined processed approximately 70,000 litres of brine
    • Piloting results can be used to determine operating parameters for a ~25,000 cubic metres (m3) per day commercial scale DLE unit
    • The DLE technology absorbent in other piloting, processing alternate brines, has been shown to last 1000s of cycles over 6 years, has been shown to be able to be reconditioned and may have a service life of over 10 years
    • ILiAD adsorbent materials are sourced and manufactured in North America

    “We are very pleased with the results from the Boardwalk and Park Place DLE piloting campaigns that produced an exceptionally pure lithium chloride (“LiCl”) product with up to 95% lithium recovery. The results demonstrate both projects are highly compatible with the SLB integrated solution,commented Kevin Piepgrass, COO of LithiumBank. “After visiting the SLB lithium production demonstration plant in Clayton Valley, Nevada this past year, it is clear SLB can scale-up and optimize the DLE process within the entire end-to-end flowsheet that produces a battery grade lithium carbonate. We look forward to continuing our collaboration with the ILiAD/SLB team as LithiumBank assesses the best method of extracting lithium from brine at Boardwalk and Park Place. We will continue advanced DLE, and post-DLE test work with additional strategic groups”.

    The tested DLE technology is a drop-in lithium recovery solution that is part of SLB's well-to-product fully integrated lithium extraction flow sheet. The commercial scale modules designed for LithiumBank can operate at ~4,815 gpm (~25,000 m3/day) and can produce ~3,500 tpa LCE based on grades and reported lithium recovery from Boardwalk. This flow is a 10th of what was studied in the Company’s PEA LithiumBank published in February 2024 and internal financials can be used to determine this approach has a high likelihood of success at significantly lower financial risk.

    The DLE pilot testing of Park Place and Boardwalk brines was conducted at the ILiAD facility in Central City, California in November and December 2024 respectively. Each pilot test consisted of approximately 34 cubic metres (“m3”) at a flow rate of approximately 360 ml/min (Table 1) with a runtime of 101.6 hours (22.9 cycles) and 111.5 hours (25 cycles) at Boardwalk and Park Place respectively. Both pilot campaigns maintained a pH between 5-6 and a temperature of approximately 60 degrees Celsius (°C)."

    This suggests to me that they are moving forward with SLB's technology. This contradicts their latest presentation posted by@Taro
