The Company plans to deploy the funds raised to continue the development of the reservoir and advance the brine production plan.

Since signing our Joint Development Agreement with Livent Corp. (the lithium industry's 5th largest producer and technological leader), last September, E3 Metals has been progressing rapidly toward proving out its proprietary technology and moving forward with constructing a pilot plant targeted to commence operating in 2021," commented Chris Doornbos , E3 Metals' CEO.
