Intrepid Engages Pickering Energy Partners as Lithium Advisor

12.12.2023  |  Globenewswire Europe

Denver, Dec. 12, 2023 - Intrepid Potash Inc. ("Intrepid," "we," or "our") (NYSE:IPI) today announced it engaged Pickering Energy Partners LP ("Pickering" or "PEP") to advise on maximizing the value of the lithium resource at its mine in Wendover, Utah.

Management Commentary
Bob Jornayvaz, Intrepid's Executive Chairman and CEO commented: "I am excited to announce our engagement with Pickering to help us evaluate our options to capitalize on the value of the lithium that we have long known to be present in the brine at our Wendover mine. Pickering has established itself as a leader and trusted advisor in the energy space and we are excited to partner together and evaluate promising new direct lithium extraction ("DLE") technologies to recover lithium from our brine and create value for Intrepid and our shareholders."

"The opportunity for Intrepid to develop its lithium resource is compelling as its existing potash operation and infrastructure provide a clear path to production in the rapidly growing lithium industry," said Dan Pickering, Chief Investment Officer of PEP. Diego Kuschnir, who helps lead Pickering's Energy Transition Banking practice, added "The majority of the lithium Intrepid currently extracts from its deep brine wells as part of its potash operation is on fee land and Intrepid's existing, large-scale evaporative assets greatly simplify the story. We are excited to represent Intrepid on this unique energy transition project and look forward to helping Intrepid expand the domestic supply of lithium and achieve maximum value for its lithium brine."

Wendover Brine Recovery Mine and Lithium Resource
Potash is produced at the Wendover brine recovery mine by collecting brines from the shallow-brine aquifer through ditches and from deep-brine wells that target the deep-brine aquifer. Brine is initially collected in a primary storage pond and then sequenced through the Wendover system to concentrate the potassium before depositing potash and salt in a series of harvest ponds for eventual processing in our mill. In addition to potash and salt, our brine resource also contains magnesium, lithium, and other associated minerals. The Wendover evaporative area is over 11,000 acres and we've measured lithium concentrations at over 1,500 parts per million in our final byproduct brine.
