RB Energy Operations Update

05.05.2014  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - May 5, 2014) - RB Energy Inc. (the "Company" or "RBI" or "RB Energy") (TSX:RBI)(OTCQX:RBEIF) is pleased to report that the scheduled shutdown and restart of both the concentrate and hydromet circuits at the Quebec Lithium operation occurred on schedule. The plant was shut down on April 29th to enable modifications towards the installation of the first optical ore sorter. The commissioning of the ore sorter is on target to commence by the end of June. With the successful completion of these modifications the plant was restarted on May 2nd, and production is now ramping up towards the first sales of lithium carbonate by the end of May. Production will continue to increase towards commercial production levels by the end of Q3 and name plate levels (20,000 tpa) by year end.

Commenting on the progress at the Quebec Lithium operation, Rick Clark, President and CEO, stated, "With the winter behind us, we are now aggressively pushing forward to achieve initial sales and commercial and name plate production levels. We are very excited about the potential of Quebec Lithium to be a significant supplier to the rapidly growing market of electric and hybrid vehicles. With initial sales to our main offtake partner Tewoo scheduled for the end of this month, we will enter the lithium carbonate market as the newest North American supplier in over 20 years. By the end of 2014, having achieved name plate production, our focus will turn to expanding our operations into lithium hydroxide production and lithium metal."
