Current Activities
Avalon is currently evaluating the opportunity to apply an
innovative, new extraction technology to recover rare earths and
other metals from acid mine drainage at closed mine sites, and
subsequently remediate their environmental liabilities. Initial
laboratory test results are encouraging and Avalon plans to work
with the innovator of this new technology to begin operation of a
demonstration facility to scale up the process as a first step
toward commercialization. Avalon is also actively seeking other
opportunities related to extracting value from waste materials that
offer potential for near term revenue streams.
Process development work continues on Avalon's Separation Rapids
Lithium Project (Kenora, Ontario)
to produce high-purity petalite product samples for glass-ceramic
manufacturers who have expressed strong interest in Avalon's
product. The Company is planning to proceed this summer with the
recovery of a bulk sample for processing to recover product samples
for customer qualification, while continuing to look at
opportunities to produce lithium battery materials.
Avalon also plans to re-activate its Lilypad Tantalum-Cesium
Project (Fort Hope, Ontario) this
summer. In addition to the global need for establishing new cesium
supply chains, there is also renewed interest in tantalum, another
technology metal with limited supplies from non-conflict
sources.
