Based in Vancouver, B.C., Standard Lithium stands out as a premier lithium developer focused on the production of high-quality lithium at a low cost. The company is engaged in unlocking the value of large-scale lithium brine resources that are already in existence in the United States and can be quickly brought into production.

Standard Lithium recently announced the expansion of the lithium brine project at its Bristol Dry Lake property in California's Mojave Desert, where six new evaporation ponds have been installed (http://nnw.fm/9LBwK). The company is taking advantage of record-high evaporation rates in this region to pre-concentrate brines produced from the project, which will then be shipped to its testing and processing facilities at three North American campuses.

The company has additionally entered into an agreement to explore highly promising brines covering an area of about 30,000 acres in the Smackover Formation, which extends across Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana. This presents a low-risk investment with promising potential returns in a region with well-understood geology that further has a lengthy history of brine production and infrastructure for profitable mineral extraction. In historical analysis of the Arkansas Smackover Formation, a lithium content of 365mg/l was shown.
