Volt Lithium Corp. has announced a strategic investment of US$1,500,000 by a company with operations in the Delaware Basin in West Texas, U.S.A., with the purpose of deploying a field unit.

This field unit will produce lithium hydroxide monohydrate using Volt's direct lithium extraction (DLE) technology and will build on work already done by Volt at its permanent Demonstration Plant in Calgary, Alberta.

Its Delaware Basin project is located in one of the largest conventional oil and gas-producing basins in North America. It produces approximately 10.9 million barrels of water every day through the production of oil and gas.

The strategic investment will be completed through a non-brokered, private placement with the investor. Under the private placement, 6,818,182 units of Volt will be issued at a price of US$0.22 per unit for an aggregate consideration of US$1,500,000 and is expected to close on or about May 1, 2024.

Each unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant will be exercisable into one common share at a price of US$0.35 per warrant share.

Of the investment, President and CEO Alex Wylie said: "We are very pleased to be collaborating with this operator to deploy Volt's field unit in the Delaware Basin. Volt has spent the past several months working with this operator to ensure the successful extraction of lithium from this operator's brine at our Demonstration Plant."
