American Lithium Announces Financial and Operating Highlights for First Quarter Ended May 31, 2024

16.07.2024  |  GlobeNewswire

VANCOUVER, July 16, 2024 - American Lithium Corp. ("American Lithium" or the "Company") (TSX-V:LI | Nasdaq:AMLI | Frankfurt:5LA1) is pleased to provide financial and operating highlights for the first quarter ended May 31, 2024. Unless otherwise stated, all amounts presented are in Canadian dollars.

Simon Clarke, CEO of American Lithium, comments, "The market backdrop remains challenging across the lithium sector; however, we have continued to make solid progress while prudently managing our working capital. Although prices in the uranium sector did consolidate somewhat during the quarter, commodity pricing remains at strong levels and uranium fundamentals continue to strengthen, suggesting sustained long-term strength in the sector. As the cycle evolves, our large-scale Macusani Uranium Project is well positioned to benefit."

Highlights for the Quarter:

  • Strengthens Team in Peru - appointment of former Deputy Minister of Mines, Mr. Augusto Cauti as a Strategic Corporate Advisor in relation to its Peruvian Operations.
  • Social Initiative - launched the "Solar Electrification" program together with the Peruvian Armed Forces involving the installation of solar panels in remote home which lack electricity.
  • Strong Progress on Falchani Flow Sheet Optimization -At $5,092/t of lithium carbonate ("LC"), current projected operating costs for Falchani (February 2024 PEA) are already amongst the lowest globally. The implementation of a number of additional tried and tested hydrometallurgical processing steps to optimize and simplify the core flow sheet should materially reduce costs further:
    • Reduction of sulfuric acid consumption by approximately 50% and considerable reduction in reagent costs;
    • Continued improvement in specification of key by-products, sulfate of potash and cesium;
    • Ongoing work at ANSTO to further simplify flow sheet; and
    • Numerous additional full cycle tests at TECMMINE have produced high purity LC (99.5-99.87% LC purity).
  • Current Intent to Commence Falchani Pilot Work during H2, 2024

Cautionary Note Regarding 32 Concessions

Thirty-two of the one-hundred-seventy-four concessions comprising the Falchani and Macusani Projects are currently subject to Administrative and Judicial processes in Peru to overturn resolutions issued by INGEMMET and the Mining Council of MINEM in February 2019 and July 2019, respectively, which declared title to thirty-two concessions invalid due to late receipt of the annual validity payments. On November 2, 2021, American Lithium was awarded a favorable ruling in regard to title to the concessions, but on November 26, 2021, appeals of the judicial ruling were lodged by INGEMMET and MINEM. A three-judge tribunal of Peru's Superior Court unanimously upheld the ruling in a decision reported in November 2023. American Lithium was subsequently notified that INGEMMET and MINEM have filed petitions to the Supreme Court of Peru to assume jurisdiction in the proceedings. Given the precedent of the original ruling it is hoped that the Supreme Court will not assume jurisdiction; however, there is no assurance of the outcome at this time.
