09:58 AM EST, 02/13/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Volt Lithium ( VLTLF ) on Thursday announced the 24-hour continuous run of its Generation 5 Field Unit in the Permian Basin, Texas.

The large-scale direct lithium extraction (DLE) system was too large for testing at Volt's Calgary demonstration facility, necessitating the Texas construction, the company said.

Integrating with the partner's operational specifications also enabled seamless installation and provides a template for future scale-up to meet expanding production demands, Volt said.

"During this 24-hour run, our Generation 5 Field Unit processed 11,573 barrels, surpassing the 10,000 bpd milestone," said Alex Wylie, president & CEO of Volt. "We have begun stockpiling lithium, confirming the commercial viability of our Direct Lithium Extraction technology, and this success positions us on track for our 2025 goals as the system is built to process even higher volumes."

Volt was last seen up $0.01, to $0.32, on the TSX Venture Exchange.
