Piedmont Lithium said Tuesday that, following a detailed operational review, the joint venture partners of North American Lithium have agreed to complete several ongoing capital project initiatives and continue operations.

North American Lithium plans to complete ramp-up activities to achieve steady state production within 2024.

Piedmont owns 25% of North American Lithium, and Sayona Mining owns the other 75%.

Production at NAL began in March 2023, and the operations have been undergoing steady improvement. Process plant recoveries are now exceeding internal expectations. March month-to-date lithium recoveries were 69%, exceeding the ramp-up target of 67%, with global recovery of 62% during the July 2023 through March 2024 period.
