VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Goat Industries Ltd. (the “Company” or “GOAT”) (CSE: GOAT), is pleased to provide the following guidance relating to ongoing corporate development initiatives focused on its Canadian lithium solvent extraction technology license.

GOAT controls a Canadian license for use of a leading lithium solvent extraction technology (the “Technology”) in Canada from Australia-based Ekosolve Ltd. (“Ekosolve”). The Technology is the culmination of four years of research and development by the faculty at the University of Melbourne’s Chemical Engineering Department. The Technology is positioned as a more cost-effective extraction technology than fractional crystallization, membrane filtering, MOF’s, adsorption, reverse osmosis, and ion exchange.

One of the key advantages of the Technology is the high rate of lithium yield targeting, which in some instances has been shown to be over 95%. Operating costs have also been shown to be reduced by more than 90%, as much of the solvent is reclaimed. Other systems, such as adsorption traditionally achieve between 72-80% yield, fractional crystallization of 50-70%, and ion exchange up to 80%. Further, evaporation ponds are not required, which the Company believes will provide an eco-friendlier solution than traditional extraction processes.

Since acquiring the Technology on October 27, 2022, GOAT has commenced a dedicated corporate development and educational outreach campaign focused with the objective of partnering with high-potential Canadian Companies with lithium-brine rich asset stacks. To date, the Company is engaged in multiple mature discussions regarding potential sub-licensing opportunities for the Technology. Further, GOAT is supporting the shipment of brine solution from an exploration and development Company focused on lithium-enriched brine projects in Western Canada to Ekosolve’s laboratory at the University of Melbourne for testing purposes. The Company will continue to report material updates regarding the Technology as they emerge.
