This ASX All Ords lithium share is taking off today

The Neometals share price is joining many of its fellow ASX All Ords lithium shares in the green on Monday as a host of stocks post quarterly updates.

Here are the key takeaways from Neometals' financial activities in its most recent quarter:

  • Used $6 million in operating activities
  • Spent $3.3 million in investing activities
  • Used $16,000 in financing activities
  • Ended the period with $50.8 million in cash and no debts

What else happened during the quarter?

Neometals' 50%-owned Primobius booked its maiden recycling revenue last quarter.

Meanwhile, the company continued work at its core battery materials business units: its Lithium-ion Battery Recycling Operation, its Vanadium Recovery Project, and its Lithium Chemicals Project.

Additionally, results from trials using products from the company's Barrambie Titanium and Vanadium Project are expected to be released next month.

Looking beyond that, the project's pre-feasibility study is on track to be completed in December.
