American Battery Metals Corp. to Change Name to American Battery Technology Company to Better Reflect its Primary Focus

Doug Cole, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of American Battery Metals Corporation, commented, "We feel American Battery Technology Company better reflects our primary focus, mission and strategic vision. These past several months have been exciting as we have expanded our team and evolved from a metals company to a battery metals technology development company. We have now positioned our main areas of focus as the design and implementation of internally developed technologies for the recycling of lithium-ion batteries and for the advanced extraction of battery metals from primary resources. Our talented team, led by our Chief Technology Officer Ryan Melsert, previously with Tesla, has vast experience in this type of internal technology development in the battery metals processing, state of the art recycling, selective metal extractions, and commercial system scaleup fields. We look forward to executing on our vision in becoming the world's first fully integrated battery metals supply chain provider. The Company expects that the legal and regulatory requirements necessary to officially change the name to be completed in the next quarter."
