Galan Lithium Secures Major Breakthrough in Argentina’s Lithium Market with Glencore’s Offtake and Financing Facility

Argentina-based Galan Lithium Limited has reached a major milestone in its Hombre Muerto West (HMW) Lithium Project following the signing of a binding term sheet with a subsidiary of Glencore, one of the world's leading global natural resource companies. The agreement outlines a binding offtake for lithium chloride and/or lithium carbonate, for phase one production at HMW.

Offtake Agreement Drives Revenue Growth and Secures Financial Stability

The offtake agreement will allow Galan Lithium Limited to sell technical grade lithium chloride concentrate to Glencore, generating revenue from phase one production of HMW. This deal paves the way for a secure and stable revenue stream for Galan Lithium Limited, eliminating the need for an export license, and providing the company with increased financial stability.

Financial Prepayment Facility Offers Significant Cash Inflow

In addition to the offtake agreement, Glencore has offered a secured Financing Prepayment Facility for between $70 to $100 million, which will support the construction of phase one and two of the HMW project. The prepayment facility offers the opportunity to accelerate the development and construction of the project, as well as providing financial stability to the company without incurring additional risk.

Low Cost Lithium Chloride Development Strategy Proven Successful

The new agreement with Glencore endorses Galan Lithium Limited's low-cost, low-risk lithium chloride development strategy, which aims to position the company as the next lithium producer in the region.
