TORONTO, Oct. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - Full Circle Lithium Corp. ("FCL" or the "Company") (TSXV: FCLI) (OTCQB: FCLIF ), a USA-based lithium products manufacturer, is pleased to announce that its FCL-XTM specialty lithium-ion battery fire extinguisher is now available to the public in North America through AMAZON.

With the global rise in the use of lithium-ion batteries across various devices, there has been a concerning increase in the incidence of lithium-ion battery fires. As these fires pose significant risks to personal safety and property, the demand for an effective fire suppression solution has never been more critical.
FCL-XTM
is at the very forefront of the critical fight against lithium-ion battery fires and is expected to attract serious attention in this new and growing global market. FCL has and will continue to have discussions with distributors in the fire suppression industry that have significant reach in North America in the commercial, industrial and public sectors.

Lithium battery fires, often caused by thermal runaway, present unique challenges due to their high energy release and potential for re-ignition. Traditional fire extinguishers fail to address these fires effectively, leaving users vulnerable to repeated outbreaks, reignition, and prolonged danger.
The FCL-XTM specialty lithium-ion battery fire extinguisher is specifically engineered to quickly, safely, and fully extinguish lithium battery fires. Its advanced design and technology offer unmatched protection, ensuring swift action to mitigate risks and safeguard lives and property. In addition, FCL-XTM has achieved the world-renowned leading lithium-ion battery fire extinguishing Dutch Standard Designation (the "NTA 8133"), other preliminary tests are on-going to obtain a final report and stamp.

Key features of the FCL-XTM
Lithium-ion Battery Fire Extinguisher include:

Immediate Response:
FCL-XTM is designed for rapid deployment, allowing users to tackle fires at the onset, significantly reducing damage and danger.
Comprehensive Safety :
Utilizing a proprietary water-based, non-toxic, non-PFAS, environmentally friendly extinguishing agent, the FCL-XTM ensures user safety and minimizes environmental impact.
Compact and Portable Design:
FCL-XTM
lithium-ion battery fire extinguisher is available in a compact 2.5-gallon format making it easy to store and access, ideal for homes, offices, and many other settings.

"We are witnessing an unprecedented rise in lithium battery fires as these batteries become integral to modern technology.
These fires aren't limited to just industrial and commercial settings.
Nearly every household in North America contains multiple lithium batteries, powering devices such as laptops, e-bikes, power tools, cell phones, and electric vehicles." said Carlos Vicens, CEO of Full Circle Lithium. " FCL-XTM is a critical innovation, providing a reliable and effective solution where traditional extinguishers fall short. Its availability on AMAZON means more people can protect themselves and their homes with the best safety technology available."

FCL-XTM
is Uniquely Formulated to Fight Lithium-ion Battery Fires

Lithium-ion battery fires are the result of thermal runaway and catastrophic failure of the battery, caused by factors such as overcharging, overheating, physical damage, or internal battery malfunction, posing significant risks to property, life, and the environment. Thermal runaway happens when Lithium-ion batteries hit high temperatures, releasing toxic gases and igniting. Cooling the entire battery pack is crucial to stop the reaction in the damaged cells of the battery and prevent overheating and ignition in additional cells. FCL-XTM was specifically designed to extinguish and mitigate the hazards of Lithium-ion battery fires and also to quickly cool additional battery cells in the battery module.

Update On Operations

Hurricane Helene Impact

In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene's devastating impact on the Southeastern United States, we express our heartfelt condolences to the communities, families, and individuals affected by this catastrophic event. We understand the significant challenges faced by those in areas where the storm has left many without power, water, and essential resources. The tragic loss of life, including that of courageous first responders, highlights the severity of Helene's effects. Our thoughts are with everyone whose lives have been changed by this hurricane.

The rural communities in Georgia, where our employees and their families live and where we operate, have felt these impacts directly. The resilience demonstrated by these communities and our employees, as they come together to support one another, reflects the strength of the human spirit. Our teams are collaborating closely with local utilities to aid efforts in restoring power and communications, which are crucial for the affected regions, including our plant in Nahunta. Their dedication and perseverance have been truly inspiring.

Currently, operations at the Nahunta plant are suspended due to power outages and other infrastructure issues in the area. A timeline for reopening will be determined following assessments conducted over the next few days. At this time, we can confirm that there has been no major impact on the Nahunta plant's operations.

Recycling and Processing Operations

Due to the ongoing challenges in the lithium market, including prolonged low pricing and negative trends impacting all related businesses, FCL has for some time been shifting its focus to one of its several business opportunities – its FCL-XTM
fire extinguishing agent - which it believes could generate substantial revenue in the near term and is not directly impacted by lithium pricing. Consequently, the Company is not, at this time, pursuing its other lithium price sensitive business opportunities, being its lithium battery recycling, industrial (midstream) lithium brine processing, and upstream lithium brine processing, leading to a reduction in headcount, and savings in operational and administrative costs.

About Full Circle Lithium Corp.

Following the Company's mantra of the "home of lithium science", FCL has developed an innovative lithium-ion battery fire-extinguishing agent ( FCL-XTM ) to address the increasing number of difficult to extinguish and hazardous lithium-ion battery-based fires. A PCT patent application has been filed by the company to protect its FCL-XTM invention. Additional information regarding FCL is available on SEDAR at under the Company's profile and on its website .
