OfficialenPublished 11 Jul 2024Accessed 7 Oct 2026

Official NRCan release on CMRDD support for midstream lithium processing: C$4,937,500 to Saltworks for lithium-brine concentration/conversion and C$4,500,000 to NORAM Electrolysis Systems for industrial-scale lithium-hydroxide electrolysis demonstration. The two awards are coded in the lithium financing backfill; NORAM's binding agreement is separately verified through the federal grants disclosure.
