GMV Minerals (TSXV:GMV, OTCQB:GMVMF) is a well-established junior gold development company that shifted its focus knowing that current lithium production simply cannot keep up with soaring demand, unless there is an exponential increase in available supply.
GMV intends to explore the Daisy Creek lithium project, located in Lander County, Nevada, to assess its potential for expansion prior to development. Daisy Creek was first identified as a rich potential source of lithium in the 1980s after high-grade lithium was noted to have been likely contained in lithium-bearing clay found in altered volcanic tuffs. Geologists staked claims in the area after seeing similarities between the geology of Daisy Creek and Lithium America’s significant Thacker Pass discovery.
The Daisy Creek Lithium project was initially targeted for uranium by multiple oil and mining companies in the late 1970s and early 1980s, the project instead proved rich in lithium, displaying values of up to 2 percent in clay-altered volcanic tuffs, which geologists noted was likely hectorite-based.
Company Highlights
- GMV Minerals is a junior gold development company with a recently added claim block focusing on lithium.
- Driven by investor interest and market conditions, the company entered into an agreement to obtain 100-percent ownership of the highly prospective Daisy Creek lithium project.
- GMV also maintains 100-percent ownership of the Mexican Hat gold project, notable for its estimated 10-year mine life, low capex and a pre-tax $153-million NPV using a US$1,600 per oz base case.
- Mexican Hat hosts an inferred 688,000 ounces of gold, excellent metallurgical results and a low strip ratio.
- Both Daisy Creek and Mexican Hat are situated in safe, mining-friendly jurisdictions with readily available and experienced service providers. Each asset is also situated in close proximity to existing infrastructure, further reducing initial capex.
- GMV is also noteworthy for its tightly-held share structure, with 24 percent of shares held by management and advisors.

ASX Listing and CEO Designate
CleanTech Lithium PLC (AIM: CTL), an exploration and development company advancing sustainable lithium projects in Chile, announces that it now expects the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX") listing to launch in April and complete in May. While the ASX listing process is taking longer than initially expected, the Board and our advisers believe that waiting for a positive decision by the end of March on entering the streamlined direct negotiation process for the Special Lithium Operating Contract ("CEOL") for Laguna Verde and completing the Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS") will significantly strengthen our investment case in the Australian market.
The Company also recognises that, under ASX listing rules, it will now have to include 2024 year-end audited financials ("2024 Financials") in the ASX-listing Prospectus before the Prospectus can be published. The 2024 Financials are well-advanced and expected to be released by the Company before the end of March 2025, some three months earlier than normally planned so that the Prospectus can be finalised shortly thereafter. The Prospectus will also include results of the PFS, which is progressing well and is anticipated to be finalised and published in April.
The Company has been informed by Tony Esplin, nominated as CEO designate in November 2024, that he has reconsidered his position and, for personal reasons, will not be taking up his intended appointment as CEO. Mr Esplin's appointment was conditional on the successful listing of the Company on the ASX which is now expected to complete in May. The Company´s Executive Chairman, Steve Kesler, will continue as interim CEO whilst the Board re-engages with alternative candidates as the CEO to lead CleanTech Lithium into its next phase of growth.
Steve Kesler, Executive Chairman, CleanTech Lithium PLC commented:
"We believe that pushing out the ASX listing to include the resolution allowing the Company to enter direct negotiation with Government on the CEOL and results from the PFS will be taken positively by Australian investors. We regret that Tony has decided to withdraw from the proposed appointment as CEO, and we will start to re-engage with other high calibre candidates immediately."
The Board believes the ASX listing will enhance shareholder value and will provide further updates on the ASX listing and CEO search in due course.

Jindalee Realises $2.75M from Sale of Non-Core Asset
Jindalee Lithium Limited (Jindalee, the Company; ASX: JLL, OTCQX: JNDAF) advises that the Company has sold its shareholding in Dynamic Metals (ASX: DYM, Dynamic), raising $2.75M before costs.
Dynamic was formerly a Jindalee subsidiary which held Jindalee’s Australian exploration assets. Dynamic was spun out of the Company in January 2023 following a $7M IPO which included a priority entitlement to Jindalee shareholders1, leaving Jindalee as a pure play US lithium company focussed on the 100% owned McDermitt Project (McDermitt), one of the largest lithium deposits in the US and of global significance.
In mid-November 2024 Jindalee announced the results of a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) on McDermitt2. The PFS confirmed a 63 year life with the Project producing 1.8Mt Lithium Carbonate at C1 costs of US$8,670/t for the first 40 years and a 5 year payback. The PFS also noted excellent potential to reduce capital and operating costs as well as increase production at McDermitt.
Priority activities following completion of the PFS include engagement with potential funding partners and US Government agencies, together with investigation of opportunities to improve Project economics, permitting and community engagement. The proceeds from the Dynamic sale will enable these activities to be accelerated.
Jindalee’s CEO Ian Rodger commented"This transaction is firmly aligned with our strategy of advancing McDermitt while preserving shareholder value. At a time when many lithium companies are struggling to raise capital, Jindalee’s ability to unlock funding from a non-core asset enables us to accelerate project development in a less dilutive way. History shows that projects advanced during downturns are best positioned to capture the upswing, and with lithium prices at unsustainable levels, a supply crunch is inevitable. This funding provides us the runway to progress key catalysts—including engagement with potential funding partners and US government agencies, project optimisation, and advancing permitting and community engagement. As one of the most advanced sedimentary lithium projects in the US, McDermitt is strategically positioned to benefit from the policy priorities of the new administration as the US moves to secure domestic supply of critical minerals."

Chinese Firm Halts Lithium Tech Exports as Global Supply Chain Shifts Accelerate
A Chinese company has halted exports of filtration equipment used in lithium extraction, reflecting the impact of Beijing’s proposed restrictions on battery and lithium technology exports.
Jiangsu Jiuwu Hi-Tech (SZSE:300631) informed customers last month that it would stop exporting a key lithium-processing component known as a sorbent starting on February 1, Reuters reported on Tuesday (February 18).
The news outlet notes that the move signals Chinese manufacturers are adjusting their practices even before Beijing’s proposed export controls have been formally implemented.
Sorbents are essential in lithium extraction from brine and other solutions. China is the largest producer of these materials, but the scale of the market remains unclear due to limited official data.
China's proposed export restrictions, announced in January, would require companies to obtain government licenses for overseas sales of certain battery and lithium-related technologies, including sorbents.
An anonymous lithium extraction technology company executive said both Jiangsu and Sunresin New Materials (SZSE:300487) — another major sorbent producer — are talking to Chinese authorities about the proposed controls.
China’s Ministry of Commerce has not publicly commented on the proposal since its announcement, but the prospect of tighter restrictions is already influencing corporate decision making. Some industry participants believe the proposed measures are discouraging exports of listed items, particularly to countries perceived as unfriendly.
A China-based international lawyer working with clean energy firms noted that commerce ministry officials have visited companies that could be affected, warning one firm against proceeding with a US$1 billion export deal under negotiation. The lawyer added that banks are requiring additional approvals before financing exports of controlled items.
China’s Ministry of Commerce has not responded to Reuters' requests for comment.
Similar measures have already disrupted global supply chains in other sectors. In December, China announced an export ban on antimony, a critical mineral used in batteries and flame retardants.
Western nations diversifying battery metals supply chains
Potential restrictions on Chinese sorbents has raised concerns among western companies seeking to develop lithium extraction capabilities, particularly oil firms exploring lithium recovery from brine deposits.
More broadly, the uncertainty surrounding China’s export policies aligns with wider efforts by western governments and companies to secure alternative sources of critical minerals.
The US, the EU and other allies have accelerated policies aimed at reducing dependence on China for materials essential to electric vehicle batteries, renewable energy technologies and defense applications.
The Minerals Security Partnership, launched in June 2022, is a collaborative effort among 14 countries and the EU. Its primary goal is to secure supply chains for critical minerals, reducing dependence on any single source.
In the semiconductor industry, efforts to diversify supply chains have also gained momentum.
Under the Biden administration, the US enacted the CHIPS and Science Act, allocating nearly US$53 billion to bolster domestic chip production. This legislation aims to revitalize US semiconductor manufacturing, create jobs and enhance national security by reducing reliance on foreign suppliers.
In Europe, the EU's Critical Raw Materials Act, introduced in 2023, aims to increase domestic production of strategic minerals while establishing partnerships with resource-rich nations outside China. The EU has been engaging with countries such as Chile and Argentina — major lithium producers — to strengthen supply chain security.
