Millennial recommended that shareholders back the offer, which it said has unanimous board approval and the backing of its largest investor.

The deal, which is expected to be finalized in the fourth quarter of 2021, offers “a very attractive opportunity for Millennial shareholders to realize full liquidity at a substantial premium to the current share price,” said CEO Farhad Abasov. .

Millennial has two non-producing lithium brine projects – Pastos Grandes and Cauchari East – in northern Argentina, near Ganfeng’s existing operations in the country, which include a joint venture with Lithium Americas Corp.

Ganfeng said this week that he expects first-half net profit to increase by 922.5% year-on-year to 1.6 billion yuan, after previously forecasting an increase of 411.2 to 666.9%, the rise in lithium prices helping to finance its expansion. plans.
