en.Wedoany.com Reported - LibertyStream Infrastructure Partners Inc. (TSXV: LIB | OTCQB: VLTLF | FSE: I2D) announced that it has delivered the first ton of lithium carbonate to a U.S. industrial customer from its site at Select Water Solutions (NYSE: WTTR) ("Select") in Howard County, Texas (north of Midland).

This delivery fulfills the company's previously announced first U.S. order and marks LibertyStream's initial shipment from the Select site. The lithium carbonate produced meets the technical specifications required by the customer as part of the company's customer qualification and commercial sales process. With this, LibertyStream's operations in Texas have progressed from field deployment and production to customer delivery, helping to de-risk the company's plan to replicate its lithium extraction and refining model in high-volume U.S. oilfield basins, including the Permian Basin and the Bakken Basin.

Alex Wylie, President and CEO of LibertyStream, stated that the team is proud of the production rate of lithium carbonate at the Select site, and delivering the first ton meeting required technical specifications is a significant milestone. The company is continuing to produce lithium carbonate for delivery to numerous battery-grade and technical-grade customers, and with production ramping up, it is expected to reach an annual production capacity of up to 1,000 tons of lithium carbonate by the end of 2026.

LibertyStream completed the installation and construction of its lithium carbonate operations facility ahead of schedule in March 2026 and has begun production from the refining unit. The refining unit is designed to produce battery-grade and technical-grade lithium carbonate. The current configuration at the Select site incorporates key learnings from the company's previous field operations and is intended to improve operational consistency as on-site production history accumulates. Following the first ton delivery, LibertyStream is transitioning from field integration and production to customer qualification, product sales, and planned capacity expansion. The company expects the Select site to continue serving as a core operations and validation platform while scaling customer deliveries and beginning site preparation for the construction of its first Texas facility, which is planned to achieve an annual production capacity of up to 1,000 tons of lithium carbonate by the end of 2026.
