VICTORY LAUNCHES EXPLORATION PROGRAM AT ITS GEORGIA LAKE LITHIUM PROJECT IN ONTARIO

-

  • These recently discovered LCT pegmatites on Rock Tech's NSPA ground is considered very encouraging with respect to Victory's claims and current 2023 exploration program which is now underway
  • Victory's property shares similar geology and is along strike from Rock Tech's advanced NSPA property. Victory's ground is recognized as being highly prospective for the discovery of new LCT pegmatites on this under-explored property which has never been subject to systematic exploration and drilling using modern exploration techniques
  • Rock Tech Lithium (TSXV: RCK) is building a lithium ore processing facility for custom milling in Thunder Bay, to be online in early 2024, which with Ontario Government support will support mineral processing from other nearby Li mines

VANCOUVER, BC, CANADA (5 June 2023) – Victory Battery Metals (CSE: VR) (FWB: VR61) (OTC: VRCFF) ("Victory" or the "Company") is excited to announce the Company's exploration team is onsite conducting its summer exploration program at its Georgia Lake Lithium Project in the Thunder Bay Mining District, Ontario.

"The Georgia Lake Lithium project is a strong lithium play in a proven lithium region. Our work program is being led by two geologists along with two prospectors and has been designed  towards identifying geological or geochemical indicators of Li bearing pegmatites on the Georgia Lake Property," said Mr. Mark Ireton, Victory's  President and CEO.

Victory's Georgia Lake Lithium Project Exploration Program Details

The current exploration program consists of prospecting and sampling, as well as rock, till and stream sediment sampling directed towards identifying geological or geochemical indicators of Li bearing pegmatites on the Georgia Lake Property, and has been designed to build upon the information below:

  • Muscovite bearing granites are associated with lithium bearing pegmatites on Rock Tech's property, which lies 1.8 km west of Victory Battery Metal's Georgia Lake Property. The majority of the lithium bearing pegmatites occur within the metasediments which underlie both properties. These granites are shown to the south and east of the Georgia Lake Property on Pye's 1965 regional map. 1 This is the only mapping that has been done over Victory's ground and is likely based on widely spaced traverses that would not have covered the area in detail
  • As the property is underlain by metasediments, and muscovite granites occur close to the property to the west, south and east, Victory considers the Georgia Lake Property to be highly prospective for Li bearing pegmatites overlooked during regional mapping

The discovery of new Li bearing pegmatite prospects on the Rock Tech ground is considered very encouraging with respect to Victory's program on its under-explored Georgia Lake Property a few kilometers to the east

About Georgia Lake Lithium

  • Victory's Georgia Lake property is 2 km east of Rock Tech Resources advanced lithium project within the Georgia Lake lithium District and hosts numerous Li bearing pegmatites
  • A 2022 Technical Report on the Georgia Lake Property produced a  Mineral Resource estimate which outlined 10.60 million tonnes (Mt) Indicated Mineral Resource at a grade of 0.88% Li2O and 4.22 Mt of Inferred Mineral Resource at a grade of 1.0% Li2O https://www.rocktechlithium.com/de/news/georgia-lake-project:-pre-feasibility-study-published
  • In the Georgia Lake Lithium District, spodumene bearing pegmatites occur almost entirely within metasediments, usually spatially associated with mica bearing granitic rocks. Regional mapping by Pye (1965) indicates that Victory's Georgia Lake property is largely underlain by metasediments
  • Pegmatites and mica granites are reported to the south, west and east of the Property
  • Mapping on Rock Tech's ground has outlined additional bodies of mica granite not shown on Pye's map, suggesting the possibility that previously unmapped mica granites and associated pegmatites may be found on Victory's ground as well

Scientific and technical information contained in this press release was reviewed and approved by Mr. Helgi Sigurgeirson, Victory Geologist, and a "qualified person" under NI 43-101.

VIDEO: Altech Batteries Ltd  Silumina Anodes Project Update

VIDEO: Altech Batteries Ltd Silumina Anodes Project Update

Perth, Australia (ABN Newswire) - Altech Batteries Limited (ASX:ATC) (FRA:A3Y) (OTCMKTS:ALTHF) is pleased to provide an update of the Silumina AnodesTM Project. This Company's game changing technology incorporates high-capacity silicon into lithium-ion batteries. Through in house R&D, the Company has cracked the "silicon code" and successfully achieved a 30% higher energy battery with improved cyclability or battery life. The Company's proprietary silicon product is registered as Silumina AnodesTM.

Highlights

- Spherisation of coated silicon particles- newest technological development

- Positioned in voids of graphite layer - further reducing impact of swelling

- Optimised 5% silicon content gives 50% capacity increase

- Pilot plant in Germany now operational

- All challenges resolved and ready for customer testing

SPHERISATION OF COATED SILICON

As previously noted, key challenges in using silicon in lithium-ion battery anodes include particle swelling, first-cycle capacity loss of up to 50%, and rapid battery degradation. Altech's initial approach involved coating individual silicon particles with a nanolayer of alumina to reduce expansion and mitigate first-cycle loss. This method proved effective. Building on this success, the next phase of development involved spherifying the coated silicon particles and applying additional coatings to the spherical structures (refer Figure 1*). These spherical, alumina-coated silicon particles can be effectively distributed within the voids of graphite, helping to minimise long-term damage to the electrode layer caused by expansion (refer Figure 2*). By residing in these voids, the particles can move without exerting stress on the surrounding graphite sheets. Additionally, the Company's R&D laboratory has optimised silicon content to a 5% addition, which has delivered a 50% capacity performance improvement in battery applications. The improvement in battery anode capacity can be seen in Figure 3 and 4*.

SUCCESSFUL PILOT PLANT OPERATION

Altech is in a race to get its patented technology to market. To support the development, Altech constructed a pilot plant adjacent to the proposed project site to enable the qualification process for its Silumina AnodesTM product. Coated silicon products are now being successfully produced at the Company's pilot plant located at Dock 3 in Saxony, Germany. The commissioning process presented a number of technical challenges, primarily related to the equipment delivery delays, supply of SiC materials, poor flowability and handling difficulties of the ultra-fine silicon powders used in the process - particles measuring less than one micron in size. These powders tended to cause hang-ups and blockages within the system, complicating consistent material movement and process stability. However, through a combination of engineering adjustments and process optimisations, these issues have now been resolved. The pilot plant is now operational and has produced high-quality coated silicon particles. These products are ready for evaluation and testing by potential customers, marking a key milestone in the commercialisation pathway.

Group Managing Director Iggy Tan said "The next generation of our development, leveraging spherization technology, has successfully addressed the long-standing challenges of silicon-namely swelling and rapid degradation. We've achieved a battery with 50% higher energy density and enhanced cycle life, all with a modest addition of silicon. Our proprietary alumina-coated, spherical silicon particles represent a breakthrough in battery anode materials. Production at our pilot plant in Saxony marks a significant milestone, and we are actively engaging with potential customers for evaluation. This progress places Altech at the forefront of next-generation battery technology as we move toward commercialisation."
