Galan Lithium

Quarterly Activities and Cash Flow Report

Galan Lithium Limited (ASX: GLN) (Galan or the Company) is pleased to present this Quarterly Activities Report for the quarter ended 31 December 2024, as well as activities up to the date of this release.


Highlights

  • Phase 1 operational works at HMW continue, with Galan being one of a few lithium companies in a position to move towards production due to the low- cost, high-grade nature of the project
  • Approximately 7,900 inventory LCE tonnes in the evaporation ponds. Lithium grades, flow and evaporation rates in line with Phase 1 DFS
  • Phase 2 HMW Mining Permit granted, securing the pathway for Galan’s continued development at HMW at an efficient commercial scale up to 21,000 tpa LCE
  • Independent benchmarking highlights HMW as being within the first quartile of the lithium industry AISC cost curve (1)
  • Candelas Mineral Resource upgrade provides Galan with total resources of 9.5 Mt LCE
  • Galan now placed within the global top 10 of lithium construction and production projects (by LCE mineral resource)(2)
  • Cash and liquid assets of A$3.6m at the end of the quarter. Chemphys placement funds of US$3 million received in January 2025; financing and offtake discussions progressing

Galan’s focus remains on its ongoing operational works at, and funding solutions for, the Company’s 100% owned Hombre Muerto West (HMW) lithium brine project in the Catamarca Province of Argentina.

The Company continues its phased development strategy at HMW and continues to work towards first production as a priority.

Commenting on the update, Galan’s Managing Director, Juan Pablo (JP) Vargas de la Vega, said:

“The 2025 year has started very positively for Galan as we continue to move towards initial Phase 1 production at HMW. With significant operational progress having already been made at the project, our focus is on securing the required offtake and funding to put HMW into production. The finalisation of the US$3m placement to Chemphys provides the runway to get to this point.

At Candelas we have been able to announce an increased Mineral Resource Estimate, which now places our HMW assets, by resource, in the top ten lithium construction and production projects globally.

To achieve all this at a time when the lithium industry world-wide is facing considerable headwinds and where other projects are stalled or being wound back is testament to the quality of HMW and its high- grade, low-cost resource. We are looking forward to the rest of 2025 with considerable enthusiasm.”

7 Biggest Lithium-mining Companies in 2025

For a long time, most of the world's lithium was produced by an oligopoly of US-listed producers. However, the sector has transformed significantly in recent years.

Interested investors should cast a wider net to look at global companies — in particular those listed in Australia and China, as companies in both countries have become major players in the industry.

While Australia has long been a top-producing country when it comes to lithium, China has risen quickly to become not only the top lithium processor and refiner, but also a major miner of the commodity. In fact, China was the third largest lithium-producing country in 2024 in terms of mine production, behind Australia and Chile.

Chinese companies are mining in other countries as well, including top producer Australia, where a few are part of major lithium joint ventures. For example, Australia’s largest lithium mine, Greenbushes, is owned and operated by Talison Lithium, which is 51 percent controlled by Tianqi Lithium Energy Australia, a joint venture between China’s Tianqi Lithium (SZSE:002466,HKEX:9696) and Australia’s IGO (ASX:IGO,OTC Pink:IPDGF). The remaining 49 percent stake in Talison is owned by Albemarle (NYSE:ALB). Joint ventures can offer investors different ways to get exposure to mines and jurisdictions.

Green Technology Metals Boosts Market Position through Root Lithium Project

North America-focused Green Technology Metals (ASX:GT1,OTC Pink:GTMLF) has completed an updated preliminary economic assessment (PEA) for its Root lithium project in Ontario, Canada.

Green Technology Metals said that the PEA evaluated Root on a standalone basis, while the December 2023 PEA combined Root with the company's advanced Seymour lithium project. The new PEA took into consideration the recently updated Root Project MRE, revised pit optimisations and mine development options, and changed lithium market conditions.

“(The PEA confirms Root) as a technically and economically robust standalone operation,” Managing Director Cameron Henry said in an April 9 release. “With a longer mine life, reduced upfront capital requirements, and strong economics, Root is well-positioned to support GT1’s broader strategy of establishing a vertically integrated lithium supply chain in Ontario.”
