Piedmont Lithium Releases Updated Corporate Presentation for March 2022

Presentation includes recent Preliminary Economic Assessment of potential second hydroxide plant and projected production timelines for projects in Quebec and Ghana

Piedmont Lithium Inc., (“Piedmont” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PLL; ASX: PLL), a leading developer of lithium hydroxide production to enable the North American electric vehicle supply chain, today released a new Corporate Overview Presentation. The updated overview includes recent information addressing overall market conditions, lithium supply and demand projections from industry analysts, and pricing trends. The presentation also provides a detailed overview and update on Piedmont’s multiple resources in North Carolina, Quebec, and Ghana. In addition, information from the recently released Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) of a second lithium hydroxide plant has now also been included, as well as estimated production timelines related to a restart of the North American Lithium asset in Quebec, and spodumene concentrate production from the Ewoyaa project with Atlantic Lithium in Ghana.

“While there remains a focus on our proposed flagship Carolina Lithium Project in Gaston County, N.C., we’ve been expanding our portfolio of mineral resources, production capacity, and upside financial exposure through assets and strategic investments in Quebec and Ghana,” commented Piedmont Lithium President and CEO, Keith Phillips. “The planned 2023 restart of North American Lithium in conjunction with our partner, Sayona Mining, and the potential for spodumene production at Ewoyaa in partnership with Atlantic Lithium as early as 2024, creates an attractive timeline for potential revenue generation that could precede output at our proposed Carolina Lithium project. The steady drumbeat of expansion announcements from OEM’s and battery makers alike, continues to drive the need for additional lithium hydroxide supply to support the U.S. market. We see expanding our access to resources, plus looking at additional hydroxide production capacity through a second potential plant, as a way of delivering security of supply to potential customers and returning value to shareholders in the process,” added Phillips.

About Piedmont Lithium

Piedmont Lithium is developing a world-class, multi-asset, integrated lithium business focused on enabling the transition to a net zero world and the creation of a clean energy economy in North America. The centerpiece of our operations, located in the renowned Carolina Tin Spodumene Belt of North Carolina, when combined with equally strategic and in demand mineral resources, and production assets in Quebec, and Ghana, positions us to be one of the largest, lowest cost, most sustainable producers of battery-grade lithium hydroxide in the world. We will also be strategically located to best serve the fast-growing North American electric vehicle supply chain. The unique geology, geography and proximity of our resources, production operations and customer base, will allow us to deliver valuable continuity of supply of a high-quality, sustainably produced lithium hydroxide from spodumene concentrate, preferred by most EV manufacturers. Our planned diversified operations should enable us to play a pivotal role in supporting America’s move toward decarbonization and the electrification of transportation and energy storage. As a member of organizations like the International Responsible Mining Association, and the Zero Emissions Transportation Association, we are committed to protecting and preserving our planet for future generations, and to making economic and social contributions to the communities we serve.
