On January 17, Rapid Lithium, formerly known as Armada Metals, has announced the renegotiation of its 2025 payment terms for the acquisition of the Ingersoll Project in the United States. Under the revised terms, the company will pay US$330,000 to the vendors of Midwest Lithium, the project’s owner, in a combination of cash and shares. The initial payment of US$30,000 has been made, with two additional payments of US$150,000 each due by August 30, 2025.
Rapid Lithium has also decided to forgo its planned acquisition of New Energy, a subsidiary of Patriot Lithium. New Energy owns the Black Hills, Keystone, and Tinton West lithium projects in the United States. This decision, announced in November 2024, aligns with Rapid Lithium’s strategy to focus on existing portfolio projects and the newly acquired Prophet River Gallium-Germanium Project in British Columbia, Canada.
Rapid Lithium’s strategic focus underlines its commitment to lithium and critical mineral exploration. The Prophet River Gallium-Germanium Project offers new opportunities for diversification into essential materials for electronics and renewable energy technologies. The company’s balanced portfolio now includes projects in Australia, South Dakota, and Canada, ensuring a streamlined approach to exploration and development. By renegotiating terms for the Ingersoll Project and prioritizing high-potential assets, Rapid Lithium positions itself to meet the increasing global demand for battery and critical minerals.
