Rock Tech Lithium Announces Plans to Dual-List on NASDAQ and Filing of Short Form Base Shelf Prospectus

Rock Tech Lithium Inc. has filed a preliminary short form base shelf prospectus and Annual Information Form with Canadian securities regulators, marking a strategic step toward a potential NASDAQ dual-listing through the Multi-Jurisdictional Disclosure System. The filing positions the company to leverage the MJDS framework, which allows eligible Canadian issuers to file U.S. registration statements based primarily on Canadian disclosure documents, substantially reducing regulatory duplication and processing costs.

The base shelf prospectus, if receipted, will provide Rock Tech with 25 months of capital markets flexibility, allowing the company to access capital markets in tranches aligned with project milestones without requiring full regulatory review for each future offering. This structure significantly reduces execution risk and costs in time-sensitive financing situations, positioning Rock Tech alongside more established TSXV-listed resource companies operating at similar scale.

Rock Tech's strategic rationale centers on accessing North American institutional capital markets at a critical juncture for its project portfolio. The company's Guben Converter holds EU CRMA Strategic Project status with full permits and engineering, while the Red Rock Converter project in Ontario carries a CAD $2.3 billion NPV under a committed GP/LP capital structure. The Georgia Lake Mine in Ontario is positioned to anchor North America's first fully integrated mine-to-battery-grade lithium supply chain.

CEO Mirco Wojnarowicz characterized the filing as building "institutional-grade capital markets infrastructure" ahead of the company's most consequential project development phase. A successful NASDAQ listing would provide Rock Tech with enhanced visibility, research coverage, and shareholder liquidity across the world's deepest capital market, potentially serving as a significant re-rating catalyst for the integrated lithium platform. The timing aligns with growing institutional focus on critical minerals supply chain security and battery materials infrastructure development in North America.
