Job Description

OVERVIEW

American Battery Technology Company (ABTC) encompasses one of the largest known measured, indicated, and inferred lithium claystone resource deposits in the United States. Located in Big Smoky Valley near Tonopah, Nevada, the project includes 517 unpatented lode mining claims covering over 10,340 acres of land administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). ABTC began geologic exploration in the project area in 2021, and the results of this successful exploration program led to the publication of our Inferred Resource report in February 2023, an Initial Assessment in December 2023, and Updated Initial Assessments in April 2024.

ABTC has conducted geological mapping, sampling, drilling, geochemical analysis, and proprietary extraction trials to characterize these resources and quantify the performance of the lithium extraction and manufacturing operations. Our in-house developed processes utilize selective leach extraction (SLE) to provide a lower-cost, lower-impact solution in contrast to conventional lithium extraction methods

ABOUT THE JOB

ABTC seeks an experienced process engineer with mining experience for our Reno, Nevada location.

The ideal candidate will have extensive mineral processing and metallurgical experience, with strong knowledge of Hydrometallurgy, Pyrometallurgy, and experience working on Lithium projects, preferably with a Consulting/Engineering company. The responsibilities for this position include evaluating laboratory data and test work and collaborating with the R&D, resource, and engineering teams for the development of ABTC’s commercial primary lithium extraction facility. Additional responsibilities include estimating equipment and personnel requirements, estimating project capital and operating costs, project economic evaluation, preparing technical reports, business development, and project management. The individual will play a pivotal role in the early phases of minerals & metals projects. The successful candidate will work with ABTC's internal engineering staff and consultants to manage the development of our Tonopah Flats mining project.
