Pure Energy has announced the completion of the basic design for the pilot plant at its flagship Clayton Valley Project in Nevada.

• The first-of-its-kind facility is expected to be the first pilot-scale implementation of the Tenova Process in the world
  
• Tenova Process designed to exclude solar pond evaporation, increase and accelerate lithium recovery, and reduce the associated environmental footprint of lithium production
  
• Data from a successful pilot plant is expected to be used in the design of a full-scale commercial plant using the Tenova Process to produce lithium hydroxide directly from Clayton Valley brine

Pure Energy has announced the results from its first two boreholes at the Terra Cotta project in Salar de Pocitos, Salta Province, Argentina: TC-DD-01 and TC-DD-02. Terra Cotta is a lithium brine project in the lithium triangle of South America.

• All brine samples showed similar lithium concentrations, with greater concentrations closer to the centre of the salar
  
• TC-DD-01 showed average lithium concentration of 29 mg/L Li, ranging from depths of 20m to 370m below surface
  
• At depths ranging from 15m to 310m, TC-DD-02 showed an average concentration of 65 mg/L Li, including a range of lithium values from 29 mg/L to 93 mg/L
