Lithium Comparables As of June 10, 2016
TSX-V: ZAD OTCQB:ZADDF
- Clayton Valley hosts North America’s only Lithium
Production, Albemarle's (Rockwood) Lithium Mine and Processing Plant in Silver Peak, in Esmeralda County, Nevada
- The Mine produces lithium from Clayton Valley basin
brines, pumped from depth to surface and allowed to evaporate in the Nevada high desert environment
- Lithium brines have been known to exist in this
location since their discovery in the 1960s
