RecycLiCoTM Pilot Plant Prepares for Stage 5 Testing to Recover Lithium Carbonate and Recycle Process Reagents and Water

SURREY, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 27, 2019 / American Manganese Inc. (TSXV:AMY)(OTC:AMYZF)(FSE:2AM) (“AMY” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce analytical results from the Company’s independent contract lab, Kemetco Research, an integrated science, technology and innovation company.

Using the Company’s patented RecycLiCoTM process, Kemetco attained 99.94% purity from the recovered NCA cathode material. The material was tested in stages 3 and 4 of the RecycLiCoTM pilot plant project.

Following the NCA cathode precursor purity results and previously achieved 99.93% purity from NMC cathode material, the Company is preparing to enter the final stage (stage 5) of the RecycLiCoTM pilot plant project for the recovery of battery-grade lithium carbonate and the recycling of process reagents and water.
