CENTURY LITHIUM COMMENDS FIRST PHOSPHATE IN MAKING LFP BATTERY CELLS USING CENTURY LITHIUM MATERIAL
VANCOUVER, BC, July 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ – Century Lithium Corp. (TSXV: LCE) (OTCQX: CYDVF) (Frankfurt: C1Z) (“Century Lithium” or “the Company”) congratulates First Phosphate Corp. (“First Phosphate”) (CSE: PHOS) (OTCQB: FRSPF) (FSE: KD0) on successfully producing commercial-grade lithium iron phosphate (“LFP”) 18650 format battery cells, as reported in First Phosphate’s news release on July 7, 2025. The LFP cathode and anode materials for the First Phosphate 18650 LFP battery cells were produced using North American critical minerals, which included lithium carbonate derived from Century’s Angel Island and produced at Century’s Demonstration Plant in Nevada, USA, as well as high-purity phosphoric acid and iron powder from First Phosphate’s Bégin-Lamarche property in Quebec, Canada.
Bill Willoughby, Century Lithium President and CEO, said:
Century Lithium is very pleased that First Phosphate found our lithium carbonate suitable for use in producing LFP battery cells,
“Century Lithium continues to advance Angel Island through permitting, engineering, and innovation at the Company’s Demonstration Plant in Nevada. We see a bright future for lithium-based chemistries. We believe LFP batteries, in particular, will have an important place in the future of mobile and stationary energy storage systems. We look forward to continuing to support First Phosphate as we work together to strengthen the North American supply chain.”
The LFP 18650 battery cells were assembled for First Phosphate by Ultion Technologies Inc. at their pilot facility in Las Vegas, Nevada.
