Clontarf Energy (LSE:CLON) has engaged Bolivia's state lithium company to seek a memorandum of understanding to ship large bulk samples from the Coipasa and Uyuni brine deposits for processing at Next‑ChemX's pilot plant in India.
The company, a small-cap focused on lithium brines and petroleum projects, said its local representatives expect to meet YLB officials in the coming weeks as Bolivia signals a shift toward pro‑business reforms across hydrocarbons, energy and lithium legislation.
The board has reviewed a number of potential projects in recent months, deemed several unsuitable and said it will continue to evaluate opportunities that align with its strategic objectives.
