"The Asena transaction is an exciting opportunity for Volt to acquire lithium licences in highly prospective and under-explored areas in Serbia.

The transaction forms part of a larger strategy to position Volt to become a multi-commodity battery minerals company, with projects focussed on the two key minerals in the fast growing lithium-ion battery market – lithium and graphite.

With these assets located in Europe and relatively close to the USA market, Volt's integrated battery minerals supply chain strategy continues to evolve and provides shareholders with significant long term growth opportunities."
