09:25 AM EDT, 10/09/2025 (MT Newswires) -- American Lithium ( AMLIF ) , which gained near 15% Wednesday, highlighted the globally significant cesium (Cs) resource contained within the Falchani Lithium deposit.

The company also announced Thursday the results of recent optimization work on the processing flowsheet, including the potential recovery of cesium by-products. Recent test work results demonstrate production of a saleable mixed cesium sulphate product and high-quality sulphate of potash (SOP), with strong recoveries at low additional cost.

American Lithium ( AMLIF ) said additional work is planned to increase the cesium content of the sulfate by-product above 18% Cs. TECMMINE, a Peruvian metallurgical consulting company based in Lima, Peru, is currently testing newly acquired component equipment for the pilot plant phase, which is expected to commence within a few months.

"Flowsheet improvements that lower costs and enhance project economics show we have advanced well beyond simple resource endowment," said American Lithium ( AMLIF ) interim chief executive Alex Tsakumis. "Importantly, Peru is a net importer of SOP, and future Falchani operations could help meet domestic demand while also supporting exports."

Shares of the company closed up $0.12 to $0.95 on Wednesday on the TSX Venture Exchange.
