STRATEGIC MINERALS
Summit Nanotech has launched a Direct Lithium Extraction demonstration plant in Santiago, Chile, to provide rapid validation for lithium developers. The facility aims to reduce project risk and accelerate development timelines by offering commercial-grade testing.
This system allows developers to gauge commercial viability and design modular solutions before making capital investments. Summit is working with lithium firms in the Lithium Triangle and has a pilot plant in Denver, Colorado, to support North American operations.
