Update on Lithium Selective Technologies

Voltaic has been working closely with LiST to provide process solutions for the historical Green Energy Brine Project. The company has advanced LiST working capital to achieve a solution. LiST is currently working to develop a solution to a complex brine composition that is the Green Energy Project, with a goal of developing a low-cost solution for non-conventional brines in Utah and elsewhere. LiST and Voltaic continue to work towards a definitive agreement that can be used on the Green Energy Project as more results are received.
