Alkemy is pleased to announce that it has raised £1.2m in an oversubscribed

capital purposes.

Following the placing, the directors will have the following shareholdings in
the Company:

 

                           Number of Shares  % of enlarged capital
 Paul Atherley (Chairman)  3,078,000         42.75%
 Sam Quinn (Director)      325,000           4.51%
 Helen Pein (Director)     25,000            0.35%

London Stock Exchange ("Admission") and Admission is expected to occur at 8.00

In accordance with the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, the
Company confirms that following Admission, the Company's enlarged issued
ordinary share capital will comprise 7,199,998 Ordinary Shares each with a
right to vote and with no shares held in treasury . Therefore, following
Admission, the above figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the
denominator for the calculations to determine if they are required to notify
their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company, under the
FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

 

Grant of Share Options

 

The Company also announces the proposed grant of 590,000 share options at £1
per share, for a period of 5 years, to further align Directors and senior
management with shareholders.   A further announcement will be made once the
options have been granted.

Alkemy and TVL Director, Sam Quinn, commented:

"We are grateful to all the existing and new shareholders who have contributed
to this fundraise, which will help enable the further fast-tracked development
of TVL's lithium hydroxide processing facility in Teesside, UK. Funds will be
used to commence and advance FEED and to complete the planning process. We
appreciate the ongoing support from all stakeholders and look forward to a
successful year ahead as we move to establish the UK's first major independent
and sustainable lithium hydroxide producer at the Wilton International
Chemicals Park in Teesside, UK".

NOTES TO EDITORS

Alkemy is seeking to develop, construct and operate the world's leading
independent and sustainable lithium hydroxide production facility.

Alkemy, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Tees Valley Lithium, has secured a
9.6ha brownfields site at the Wilton International Chemicals Park located in
Teesside, a major UK Freeport.

Alkemy has completed a Class 4 Feasibility Study for its proposed lithium
hydroxide facility which will process feedstock imported from various sources
to produce 96,000 tonnes of premium, low-carbon lithium hydroxide annually,
representing around 15% of Europe's projected demand.
