Neo Lithium Corp. announced that it has engaged Worley Chile and Worley Argentina, respectively, to complete a  Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS") of its flagship Third Quarter Project in Catamarca, Argentina. Worley Argentina and Worley Chile are subsidiaries of Worley Limited ("Worley") (ASX: WOR). Neo Lithium has engaged Worley to complete a comprehensive DFS on its flagship, high-grade lithium brine project, third quarter, in Catamarca, Argentina. The development strategy focuses on production of 20,000 tonnes per year of lithium carbonate with the flexibility to expand production to 40,000 tonnes per year after phase one is completed and operational. The DFS is scheduled for completion in third quarter of 2021.  results of the last pre-feasibility study ("PFS") performed by GHD Chile SA ("GHD") and Groundwater Insight Inc. were filed on May 8, 2019 for a project with 20,000 tonnes of lithium carbonate production annually with an after-tax Net Present Value (8% discount rate) of USD 1.143 billion, Internal Rate of Return of 49.9%, Capital Expenditures of USD 318.9 million, Operating Expenses of USD 2,912 per tonne of lithium carbonate, and a pay-back of twenty months using a lithium carbonate price of USD 11,882 per tonne over a thirty-five year mine life. The studies carried out by the Company in its evaporation pilot plant at the salar site and the lithium carbonate pilot plant in the town of Fiambalá confirm that the general parameters defined in the PFS will be validated in the DFS. This reserve will be updated because two new wells yielding 160 meters with 1,128 mg/l Lithium (PB1-R-24) and 178 meters 1,117 mg/l Lithium (PB1-R-25) were reported in June 2019, after the PFS was issued. The wells are outside the previously considered ore body and therefore it is expected to have a positive effect in the previously estimated resource and reserve. The decision to complete a DFS has been made in collaboration with Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Ltd. ("CATL"), the Company's 8% shareholder, who will also participate in all technical decisions. Neo Lithium has been operating pilot evaporation ponds for more than three years, while the pilot lithium carbonate plant has been in operation for nearly two years. This has resulted in a meaningful ramp up in knowledge while improving the process all the way through to validate the PFS and take the project more efficiently into DFS with a view towards future construction. As a result of our efforts to maintain steady operations at pilot scale level, we continue to produce our own lithium brine concentrate and lithium carbonate on a regular basis, and believe that we are on track towards our goal of being in production by the later stages of 2023. The COVID-19 situation in Argentina has been improving the last weeks with the arrival of warmer weather but a second wave of COVID-19 could affect the abovementioned timeline. The Company has taken all the required measures to minimise any impact to the project and look after its people. Due to resurgence of lithium iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries and other battery technologies that are able to use lithium carbonate in their cathode, lithium carbonate prices have materially recovered over the past months. This upward trend is expected to continue during 2021 and beyond. Spot supply of lithium carbonate battery grade material is very tight since most capacity has already been allocated on long term contracts and demand has continued to outpace production of lithium carbonate battery grade. The Company believes that this upward trend in pricing will bode well in its long-term price expectations for its pricing assumptions on its DFS and more importantly in its continuous financing strategy negotiations.
