Vancouver, British Columbia, and Houston, Texas – September 1, 2023 - International Battery Metals Ltd. (the “Company”) is pleased to advise that on Wednesday, August 30, 2023, it filed with the British Columbia Securities Commission an Annual Information Form for the financial year ending March 31, 2023 (the “AIF”).
The filing of the AIF is due in part to the Company’s ongoing development of its Module Direct Lithium Extraction Unit, as well as the Company’s ongoing strive to ensure it maintains the highest disclosure standards. Additionally, the Company believes that the filing of the AIF reflects a positive step in the Company’s growth that will provide the Company with greater exposure to the investment community, including institutional investors in both Canada and the United States.
In addition to the filing of the AIF, the Company would also like to advise that it has posted on its website a letter from Garry Flowers, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, addressed to shareholders of the Company (the “Shareholder Letter”). The Shareholder Letter provides readers with a general overview of the Company’s development over the course of the 2023 fiscal year, as well as a general outlook of the Company for the upcoming months. A copy of the Shareholder Letter can be found on the Company’s website located at www.ibatterymetals.com.
