• Brine increased in concentration 5 times from 1,260 mg/l lithium to over 6,300 mg/l lithium by
the end of December 2016, with the lithium concentration continuing to increase
• Potassium chloride is precipitating in the evaporation ponds as the brine concentrates. Potassium Chloride is a beneficial by-product of lithium production.
