Canada Lithium now in Continuous production mode

Canada Lithium Posts Milestone Achievement with First Continuous Lithium Carbonate ProductionTSX: CLQ; U.S. OTC: CLQMF
Canada Lithium Corp. ("Canada Lithium" or the "Company") (TSX: CLQ) (U.S. OTC: CLQMF) is pleased to announce that continuous production of lithium carbonate has been achieved for the first time, as commissioning proceeds through the latter stages at the Company's open-pit mine and processing plant near Val d'Or, Québec. While previous production was achieved in batch-style fashion, all circuits in the process plant, from the crusher through to the final bagging station for lithium carbonate, are operating on a continuous basis.
Day-shift mining operations, temporarily suspended in July, have been reinstated in order to rebuild the ore stockpile depleted over the past quarter. As noted previously, crushing, grinding, concentrator and kiln circuits are operational and will be sequentially stepped-up to design capacity over the coming months. Commissioning of the hydrometallurgical circuit continues to proceed as per the revised timetable, and lithium carbonate product is being packaged on-site.

Throughout the commissioning phase, the Company has continued to monitor working capital levels. Product shipments to Tewoo in China are currently scheduled to commence within the coming weeks.

Potash will be a valuable by-product of Rodinia Lithium's operation at Diabillos.

Rodinia Lithium Successfully Harvests Sylvinite On Site At Diablillos

• SUCCESSFUL HARVESTING OF SYLVINITE DURING REGULAR OPERATION OF PILOT ENGINEERING PROGRAM
• PILOT PROCESSING CONFIRMS EFFECTIVE REMOVAL OF SYLVINITE IN AN ISOLATED POND USING CONVENTIONAL EVAPORATION BASED PROCESSING
• EVAPORATION CYCLE OF INITIAL PAN PILOT TEST SERIES COMPLETE CONFIRMING INITIAL PORTION OF THE METALLURGICAL PROCESS DESCRIBED IN PRELIMINARY ECONOMIC ASSESSMENT

Toronto, Canada, May 14, 2012: Rodinia Lithium Inc. (“Rodinia” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: RM; OTCQX: RDNAF) is pleased to report that sylvinite has been successfully produced and harvested at the Company’s 100% owned Diablillos lithium-potash brine project (“Project” or “Salar” or “Diablillos”) in Salta, Argentina.   Sylvinite, a potash and sodium chloride salt, has been harvested during operation of the pilot engineering program being conducted on site.  The results of the brine geochemical development during this pilot cycle was within the Company’s expectations and offers significant confirmation of the initial portion of the metallurgical process described in the Company’s Preliminary Economic Assessment conducted on Diablillos dated December 22, 2011 and filed on the SEDAR profile of the Company at www.sedar.com (the “PEA”).

William Randall, Rodinia’s President & CEO, commented, “Having harvested sylvinite during the regular operation of our pilot engineering program is a major milestone for the Company.  We remain confident that these results confirm our ability to produce potash from Diablillos using conventional methods employed by other major brine producers in South and North America.  This asset continues to meet our targeted milestones as we advance towards feasibility and production.”

This initial result from the pilot engineering program is from the first series of solar evaporation tests at ambient conditions of the Salar.  The evaporation was started May 2011 and concluded in April 2012.  The first series is one of five evaporation tests in progress.  Each test in pools and pans were started at different times of the year to see the effect of weather on the evaporation cycle chemistry.  The resultant brine from these evaporation tests will subsequently be processed for recovery of boron and lithium products.

The process engineering department continues to monitor the evolution of both the pools and pans installed on site at approximately 4050 metres above sea level.  As announced previously, a first stage of magnesium and sulphate removal has been completed, followed by successful removal of sylvinite in the ensuing step, confirming that potash is going to be a valuable by-product of an eventual lithium carbonate production facility.

About Rodinia Lithium Inc.:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Perth, Western Australia, December 2, 2010 – Talison Lithium Limited (“Talison”) (TSX:TLH) announces  the early commissioning of the Stage 1 expansion at the Greenbushes Lithium Operations and an update on the Stage 2 expansion.

Peter Robinson, Chairman, said “We are very pleased that commissioning of the Stage 1 expansion of production capacity at the Greenbushes Lithium Operations has commenced ahead of schedule, and that continued strong demand for Talison’s chemical-grade lithium concentrate has necessitated a revision of the design of the Stage 2 expansion”.

Expansion of the Greenbushes Lithium Operations
Commissioning of the Stage 1 expansion of the chemical-grade plant at the Greenbushes Lithium Operations has commenced ahead of schedule, and production is already at the increased design capacity (an increase of approximately 7,500 tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent).

Talison is also continuing to plan the Stage 2 expansion of the chemical-grade plant and in response to continued strong demand for lithium concentrate, the original design of the expansion (that planned to increase total production capacity of the Greenbushes Lithium Operations to approximately 62,000 tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent), is being revised to allow for further increases in production capacity.

To ensure that revision of the design allows Talison to proceed with the Stage 2 expansion in calendar 2011 as originally planned, Board approval has been received to commence ordering long lead time items for the expansion.

Solactive Global Lithium Index
Following its listing on the TSX in September, Talison has recently been included in the Solactive Global Lithium Index. This Index is used by Global X Lithium, the world’s first lithium based Exchange Traded Fund, to track performance of the largest and most liquid lithium mining, refining and battery producing companies in the world.

Rodinia Lithium Inc. Hits Lithium Fountain at Salar De Diablillos, in Argentina

Rodinia hits virtual lithium guyser, Grading 540 Mg/L At Salar De Diablillos

November  2010

• ARTESIAN BRINE INTERSECTED IN LAST THREE DRILL HOLES WITH VALUES UP TO 540 MG/L LITHIUM, 5500 MG/L POTASSIUM, 660 MG/L BORON AND A MG:LI RATIO OF 3.33

• EXPLORATION PROGRAM CONTINUES TO DELIVER POSITIVE DRILL RESULTS, EXPANDING ZONE APPROXIMATELY 4 KM EAST AND 4.5 KM SOUTH OF D-RC-01

• SIGNIFICANT INTERCEPTS INCLUDE 510 MG/L LITHIUM OVER 90 METRES AND 530 MG/L LITHIUM OVER 72 METRES IN D-RC-03 AND D-RC-04 RESPECTIVELY

• ARTESIAN LITHIUM BRINE REMAINED UNABATED AND DENSITY INCREASED OVER A 3 DAY SPAN WITH A PRESSURE AND VELOCITY THAT PUSHED THE ARTESIAN COLUMN APPROXIMATELY 13 METRES ABOVE THE SALAR SURFACE (please see figure 1)

Toronto, Ontario: Rodinia Lithium Inc. (“Rodinia” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: RM; OTCQX: RDNAF), is pleased to report that it continues to intersect high-grade lithium and potash in its reverse circulation drilling exploration program on its Salar de Diablillos lithium-brine project in Salta, Argentina (“Diablillos” or the “Salar”).  The Company remains encouraged by the results of the exploration program and reinforces its belief that the project has the potential to become a lithium, potash and boric acid producer in the near future.

William Randall, President and CEO of Rodinia, commented “the fact that we are routinely intersecting artesian conditions containing high grade lithium values is, in our opinion, extremely positive.  We believe that these results indicate that the subsurface brines are spouting to surface and increasing in salinity and density as they continue to flow. This is a rare phenomenon which may add significant value to the project.  Equally exciting is the fact that we intersected these brines in the southern portion of the basin where, based on our auger drilling, we expected lower grade brines due to the proximity of the river. In our opinion these results indicate the potential for the majority of the basin to contain lithium rich brines.”

Results from the most recent five drill holes are summarized in Table 1.  All the holes reported in this press release are open at depth and in all directions, bound only by the basin limits.  The reverse circulation drill holes were drilled vertically to ensure proper representation of the stratigraphic column.  As in the previous drill holes the distribution of lithium concentrations over the hole are remarkably even, suggesting that our entire stratigraphic column below the near surface clays represents a single aquifer, composed primarily of sands and gravels.  The clay content in all holes drilled to date has been low to negligible.

A sampling procedure was enforced by management to ensure sample integrity during the drill program.  Where possible, brine and sediments samples were air lifted, and water restricted to the upper part of the hole before the water table was intercepted.  Once brine bearing horizons were intercepted, drilling was halted and the drilling pipe lifted 2 feet or more to allow the total flushing of the internal pipe by means of air pressure for approximately ten minutes or until the brine appeared reasonably clean of sediment.  After sufficient air lifting of the brine, a sample was collected in 500 ml sample bottles that had been washed three times with the brine.  Liquid was also collected in five gallon buckets and the time of filling of the bucket recorded, in order to aid in quantifying the formational flow.

The project is supervised by Ray Spanjers, Rodinia’s Manager of Exploration.  Mr Spanjers is considered a qualified person, as defined by National Instrument 43-101, and has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information in this release.  According to the Company’s sampling protocol, sample size is to exceed 500 millilitres and be stored in clean, secure containers for transportation.  The prepared samples are then forwarded to the ALS Laboratory Group, Environmental Division, in Fort Collins, Co (USA) for analysis.  A rigorous QA/QC program is implemented consisting of regular insertion of standards and blanks to ensure laboratory integrity.

Rodinia Lithium Inc.'s Auger Drilling Extends Near Surface High-Grade Lithium-Potash Zone 1.5 km at Salar de Diablillos

7:46AM ET on Friday Sep 24, 2010 by Marketwire

Rodinia Lithium Inc. ("Rodinia" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: RM)(OTCQX: RDNAF), is pleased to report further sample results from its auger drill exploration program on its Salar de Diablillos lithium-brine project in Salta, Argentina ("Diablillos" or the "Salar"). The completion of an additional 38 sample holes has extended the previously defined 2.5 km by 4.0 km high-grade lithium-potash zone near surface by an additional 1.5 km along strike (see Press Release dated May 26, 2010 for additional details on the original high-grade zone definition).

William Randall, President and CEO of Rodinia, commented "It is encouraging that these additional auger drill holes have intersected grades similar to the previous auger drilling and has extended our high-grade zone an additional 1.5 km. We now have additional areas to target with our ongoing reverse circulation drilling. Coupling these results with drill hole D-RC-01 announced last week, which demonstrated a continuous aquifer to depths of at least 120 metres, provides additional support for the potential to delineate a large scale resource at Diablillos" (see Press Release dated September 17, 2010 for additional details on drill hole D-RC-01).
 
Based on the completed sampling program of 140 sample holes, the Diablillos auger drill exploration program returned lithium ("Li") values of up to 1,000 milligrams per litre ("mg/L") and potassium ("K") values of up to 11,000 mg/L. Focusing on the nucleus of the Salar, which the Company believes represents the highest probability for production (see Figure 1 below), results returned average Li of 845 mg/L, average K of 9,092 mg/L, and 762 mg/L boron ("B") with favourable magnesium ("Mg") to Li ratio of 3.75 and an attractive sulphate to lithium ratio. Previously reported results for the auger drill program were based on a total of 102 sample holes. The full set of results reinforce the Company's belief that Diablillos may contain high concentrations of lithium, potash and boron and that the project has the potential to become a lithium carbonate producer. The Company remains encouraged by the presence of near-surface brines that contain similar, and in many instances higher, lithium and potash concentrations to other established brine developers in South America.

The completed auger program successfully covered a large portion of the Salar which returned average results of 680 mg/L Li, 7,400 mg/L K, 669 mg/L B, 3.75 Mg:Li, and 10.73 SO4:Li. Certain portions of the salar and its margins could not be sampled due to more extensive overburden material. The auger drill has been modified to be able to successfully penetrate the hard calcium carbonate layers commonly encountered, therefore enabling the additional sampling reported in this press release. In general, lithium values decreased towards the salar margins to the north and south, however drilling will be required to establish whether this trend is consistent at depth. Rodinia has a reverse circulation drill program underway on the Salar, which amongst other things will test the depth of the aquifer, as well as the lithium potential under the areas sampled by the auger drill.

Throughout the auger sampling, Rodinia employed a sampling procedure designed to ensure sample integrity by minimizing contamination of brine samples through the dissolution of overlying sediments and evaporates that may be enriched in lithium. All the holes were drilled to a depth sufficient to ensure penetration of the overlying clay layer, which varies in thickness between one and over three metres. Below the clays, a medium to coarse-grained sand aquifer was encountered containing high-grade lithium brine in its porous space. A historical drill hole in the south eastern margin of the Salar indicates the presence of this aquifer to a vertical depth of at least 75 metres, with material coarsening at depth to a coarse basal conglomerate (SEGEMAR; www.segemar.gov.ar). Rodinia has also recently completed a reverse circulation discovery drill hole, drill hole D-RC-01, which indicated the presence of this aquifer to a vertical depth of at least 120 metres.

Sample integrity was maintained by pushing four inch casing down into the hole and pumping, where possible, the contents of the hole. The hole was then left to refill from the aquifer below, ensuring proper representation of brine geochemistry. This brine was then sampled and decanted before collection in sealed plastic containers that had been previously rinsed in the same brine. All samples were sent to ALS Laboratory Group, Environmental Division, in Fort Collins, CO, USA where Rodinia is sending both its Diablillos and Clayton Valley project samples.

The Project is supervised by William Randall, MSc (Geology), the President and CEO of Rodinia, and by Ray Spanjers, Rodinia's Manager of Exploration. Both Messrs. Randall and Spanjers are considered qualified persons, as defined by National Instrument 43-101, and both have reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information in this release. According to the Company's sampling protocol, sample size is to exceed 300 millilitres and be stored in clean, secure containers for transportation. The prepared samples are then forwarded to the ALS Laboratory Group, Environmental Division, in Fort Collins, Co (USA) for analysis. A rigorous QA/QC program is implemented consisting of regular insertion of standards and blanks to ensure laboratory integrity.

Worlds largest, pure lithium producer, going public!

Talison Lithium Ltd, the largest, pure lithium company in the world, will go public on Thursday, Sept 23rd, on the Toronto Stock Exchange!

Right: Talison currently operates two lithium plants in Greenbushes Australia which have been operating for 25 years and currently supply 300 companies with lithium and lithium carbonate. Talison, up until now, a privately owned company, supplies approx 66% of Chinas imports of lithium.
 

A very light metallic element, lithium is mainly used as lithium compounds that act as fluxes in the ceramics and glass industries, and in lubricants. The metal is an important alloying agent in in the manufacture of primary aluminium. Lithium is increasingly being used in rechargeable batteries used in all aspects of the mobile web, from laptops to cell smart phones. Now lithium is the primary resource used in batteries for the hybrid and electric vehicle markets.

Lithium is mined from spodomen (hard rock) , clay deposits and more promisingly, from salars or brine lakes. Mining from Salars, (salt lakes) is much less expensive and less labour intensive. The Puna plateau in South America which spans Chile, Argentina and Bolivia holds much of the worlds salars. Junior miners have flocked to the region over the past two years to stake claims to what is, without argument, the worlds richest lithium deposits.
In July, Talison Lithium announced a merger with publicly traded, junior miner, Salares Lithium which owns the Salares 7 project in the Atacama Desert on the Puna Plateau of Chile which is, we believe, one of the largest, pure lithium deposits in the world, encompassing over 116 hectares in 7 Salars or salt lakes, of which Salares owned 100% of five of those salars.
In doing so, Talison kills two very big birds with one stone. Firstly, they now own one of the largest pure brine properties on the market today. As Talison has, up until now, been a spodomen or hard rock miner, the jump into brine production will enhance significantly, their lithium footprint in todays market, especially in the cheaper to produce (and more lucrative) brine deposits.
Also, as a result of the merger, Talison will become a publicly traded company, TLH. Its strike price should be between $3.50 and $4  per Talison share, which will return a premium to current Salares Lithium shareholders of 98.6% as the merger of shares is 2.81 Salares shares for one Talison share.

This year, the electric vehicles market is ramping up from California to Tokyo (see the Tesla roadster and other EVs parked at a charging station - right) Every major auto company on the planet has an EV in some stage of production at this writing.
With the advent of the Global X Lithium EŦF and lithium indexes popping up around the market, I believe that the strike price mentioned is very low as these ETFs and indexes will have to include Talison at or near the top of their lists (you cannot ignore a world leader in any market).


On Sept 17th 2010, Salares shareholders approved the merger with Talison by a 99.9% vote.
The hearing for the final court order to approve the Arrangement is scheduled to take place on September 21, 2010, with the completion of the Arrangement expected to occur on or about September 22, 2010. The TSX has conditionally approved the listing of the Talison ordinary shares under the symbol "TLH", and trading is expected to commence on the TSX at the market open on September 23, 2010.


As Talison goes public I am making it my conviction stock pick. Look for Talison Lithium Ltd to double the above price by Christmas (if not the first day of trading) and double again by Spring 2011.
