Enertopia Announces Lithium Carbonate Purity Testing Underway

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 29, 2017 / Enertopia Corporation (OTCQB: ENRT; CSE: TOP) (the “Company” or “Enertopia”) is pleased to announce that it has been notified by the 3rd party laboratory that the Lithium Carbonate purity testing is underway on the four Lithium carbonate samples recently produced from the Genesis Water Technologies (GWT) bench tests. The third party laboratory is using Ion Chromatography to determine the precise purity in the submitted four Lithium carbonate samples.

The Company has expedited the time for testing the samples and believes it will have the purity results within two weeks.

Since the Company’s press release of the bench test recovery numbers on March 6, 2017, it has received several requests for further information from Lithium producers and other leaders in the Lithium space.

Enertopia looks forward to the results of the 3rd party independent laboratory testing to determine the purity of lithium carbonate product produced from processing of the 4 brine samples by GWTs recovery process. Once these results have been received and reviewed by Enertopia and GWT, Enertopia will provide the outline for the next phase of development and selection process for the pilot plant location.

“Modern technology is revolutionizing Lithium production technology, and potentially providing a much better way to recover lithium, while protecting our environment. We are enthusiastic in becoming leaders in this evolution,” stated President and CEO, Robert McAllister.
