Enertopia (CNSX:TOP) "very excited" by first analysis numbers for lithium recovery from brine: ProactiveInvestors Stocktube

Published on 29 Jun 2016
Robert McAllister, chief executive at Enertopia (CNSX:TOP, OTCBB:ENRT) talks to Proactive Investors about the group's deal with a leading North American brine water recovery for lithium recovery.

"We've been looking at how we can recover lithium in the most economically and environmentally-sensitive way to make sure we're on site for a better environment and also to make money for our shareholders. So we decided that brine, from all our research, was the cheapest way to extract lithium and improving on that we've looked at technology around the world for water processing. Our clean energy partners of the last several years then steered us in the direction of this company," he explains.

McAllister says he is "very excited" by the first analysis numbers for lithium recovery from brine.

#UK - Brexit family divide: BBC News

Published on 29 Jun 2016
The Hannons are just one of many families in the UK dealing with the fallout from the EU referendum. They are seven people divided by the outcome they backed last week. Connor, 20, is the middle child of five and like most of his siblings he wanted to remain. But his parents Anne and Mike disagreed and the debate goes on.
According to YouGov data, 75% of young people aged 18-24 voted to remain, but only 39% of those over 65 did the same. We joined the Hannons in their home in Salford to find out why their age seems to divide them.
