Arizona Tribune - EVSX Completes Installation of Multi Chemistry Line

The EVSX battery processing line is now moving to final testing prior to full commissioning. This line, with an annual capacity of 10,000 tonnes and capability to process virtually any type of battery, was previously fully commissioned for testing under the supervision of WSP Group PLC before shipping to Canada. The EVSX engineering team is working closely with the manufacturing engineers to ensure a smooth start-up.

EVSX further announces that it has filed an additional Environmental Compliance Approval ("ECA") submission which will permit the processing of a wider range of battery chemistries, more adapted to the line's capability. The submission was approved for Priority Review by the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks, a critical step in fast tracking ECA approval.

"We are pleased to announce that the installation of our multi chemistry line is now complete and undergoing final testing prior to full commissioning. EVSX holds an existing ECA which permits us to sort and process various battery chemistries under our battery supply agreement, so it's important to note that the new ECA submission to expand battery chemistries will not impact operational startup expected in January 2025." Commented Mr. Ian C. Peres, Chief Executive Officer of EVSX.

EVSX holds an existing ECA and a three-year battery supply agreement with Call2Recycle, a not-for-profit institution responsible for battery collection across Canada and the United States. Advanced discussions are underway to secure a greater range and volume of battery chemistries in 2025.

This line is one of three highly automated multi-chemistry lines that process waste batteries and recover battery metals (black mass), steel, aluminium, paper and plastics and other materials. There is no acid or similar product used in the process and end products are sold downstream for further processing as fertilizer, feed stock and back to the supply chain, with nothing ending up in waste landfill.

EVSX also announces that it has secured a Convertible Debenture ("Debenture") financing for gross proceeds of $356,000. Each debenture has a one-year maturity and bears a face value of $1,000, with an implicit annual interest of twenty five percent capitalized in advance. Each Debenture is convertible, at the discretion of the holder, into common shares in St-Georges Eco Mining Corp. at an exercise price of $0.0625. EVSX has the option to redeem the Debentures not earlier than ninety days following closing, and upon five day written notice to the debenture holders. Proceeds will be used to fund the installation of the line and for general working capital purposes.
