ElectraLith Selected As A Top Innovator By The World Economic Forum
ElectraLith has been recognized as one of eight top innovators globally by the World Economic Forum, which described its DLE-R technology as “deeply inspiring” and a leading solution advancing the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
Melbourne, Victoria, 16th May 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, The World Economic Forum today announced that ElectraLith Pty Ltd (“ElectraLith”) is a winner of the highly prestigious Sustainable Mining: Mining the Unmined Challenge. In its selection, the World Economic Forum identified ElectraLith’s next-generation DLE-R technology as one of the most promising solutions driving progress toward achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.

As part of the challenge, ElectraLith was selected by UpLink as one of eight Top Innovators advancing groundbreaking technologies that maximize the recovery of metals and minerals from ores and non-primary sources, reducing the need for fresh extraction to meet future raw material demands. Uplink is the World Economic Forum’s innovation platform with a mission to enable an innovation ecosystem driving positive systemic change for people and the planet.
The World Economic Forum commented: “We are deeply inspired by ElectraLith’s solution and excited to help ElectraLith scale its impact.”
As a Top Innovator, ElectraLith will benefit from a three-year curated Engagement Programme that includes high-profile events, global visibility and access to networks of potential partners, collaborators and investors. The Engagement Programme is intended to significantly enhance ElectraLith’s ability to rapidly scale DLE-R to create a lasting and positive impact on global sustainability challenges.
Charlie McGill, ElectraLith’s CEO, commented: “It is a genuine honor to receive this special recognition from the World Economic Forum. Our team is dedicated to delivering the cleanest method of extracting and refining lithium from any source, unlocking lithium’s full potential to deliver a sustainable future. This recognition validates that DLE-R is on track to make an important and measurable impact that directly addresses the global sustainability challenges identified by the United Nations.”
McGill continued: “DLE-Rs’ ability to extract and refine lithium from any source without water is its true differentiator. It means we can unlock lithium in regions where water is extremely scarce, such as in the Andes where the vast majority of the world’s lithium reserves can be found. It’s estimated that more than 60% of all water in this region is used for lithium extraction, having a devastating impact on the environment and its indigenous communities.”
Jun Qu, ElectraLith Director and Main Sequence Investment Manager, commented: “Ensuring sustainable access to critical resources is one of Main Sequence’s key priorities. Lithium is central to the energy transition, but there is a significant innovation gap that needs to be bridged before we can sustainably supply the battery-grade materials needed at scale. ElectraLith is closing that gap. Its single-step, cost-effective process is capable of producing battery-grade lithium directly from any source.”
Based on technology invented at Monash University by Sir John Monash Distinguished Professor Huanting Wang, ElectraLith’s DLE-R system uses proprietary electrochemical technology to extract and refine lithium in an end-to-end, modular and scalable system. It is the only Direct Lithium Extraction (“DLE”) process that requires no water or chemicals, and the only DLE process able to directly produce refined lithium for the battery market, eliminating dependence on third party refining. By removing these externalities, DLE-R is rapidly emerging as the cleanest, most versatile and most-cost-efficient method to extract and refine lithium from any source.
The World Economic Forum’s recognition follows the December 2024 close of a materially oversubscribed Series A funding round of A$27.5m led by Main Sequence and supported by a world-class investor syndicate comprising Rio Tinto, Chevron Technology Ventures, Marathon Petroleum, Vista Energy, In-Q-Tel, IP Group, Fathom Fund, Hostplus, Breakthrough Victoria and Monash University.

CryptoBigBox.com: A Clean, No-Gimmicks Source for People Who Actually Use Crypto
Dubai, UAE, 24th July 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Most websites talking about crypto have one thing in common: they’re trying to sell you something. Whether it’s hidden behind affiliate links, paid endorsements, or inflated reviews, that bias shows up fast. CryptoBigBox.com takes a different route. It’s not a news site, not a blog with trading signals, and definitely not another list of “top platforms.” It’s more of a reference space — built for regular users who just want the facts written clearly.
The idea behind the site is simple: explain how different parts of the crypto world work without trying to steer readers in any particular direction. That includes exchanges, wallet options, peer-to-peer platforms, and tools like market sentiment indicators. Everything is written in a way that doesn’t assume deep experience, but also doesn’t talk down to the reader.
The most useful part of the site is probably the section on crypto exchanges. It doesn’t list winners or losers, and it doesn’t push sign-up links. It just breaks down how crypto exchanges actually work — what kinds of fees to expect, how long it takes to move funds around, and what kind of interface you’re dealing with. Each page is built from real usage, not press releases or scraped data.
There’s also a solid overview of peer-to-peer trading. That side of crypto doesn’t always get attention, but it plays a big role for people moving funds directly without centralized accounts. The site looks at structure, liquidity differences, and practical safety issues. It doesn’t pretend to be a tutorial — it just shows what’s out there and what people need to be aware of before getting involved.
On the security side, CryptoBigBox.com has pieces that walk through wallet setups — hot, cold, custodial, non-custodial — but again, without recommending anything. Some wallets are simple but risky. Some are solid but clunky. Instead of ranking them, the site just shows the tradeoffs and lets users decide what fits.
One small tool that gets mentioned a lot is the fear and greed index. The site doesn’t track charts or predict swings, but it does explain how emotional trends move the market. It goes over the signals behind the index — like trading volume, social buzz, volatility — and what it might mean when fear dominates or greed takes over. It’s not framed as advice, just something that’s good to be aware of.
Here’s a quick glance at the kind of content you’ll find there:
-
walk-throughs of how exchanges handle deposits, withdrawals, and fees
-
descriptions of P2P trading flow and what safety measures exist
-
breakdowns of best crypto wallets categories and how people actually use them
-
plain-language insights into market emotion indicators
One thing that makes the site feel different is how low-key it is. There are no popups, no fake urgency, no rating systems. The writing feels more like a Reddit post from someone who’s seen enough to be careful — not a polished piece designed to drive clicks. There’s no corporate voice, no overexplanation, and no filler.
CryptoBigBox.com doesn’t claim to be complete, or final, or smarter than everyone else. It just fills a gap that a lot of users feel: the need for grounded, unbiased, readable information in a space that’s usually anything but that. If you’re tired of being sold to every time you try to learn something, this is probably the kind of site you’ll actually come back to.

Iowa Native Mark Brown Champions Local Conservation Through Outdoor Education
Iowa, US, 24th July 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Iowa native and conservation educator Mark Brown is making visible strides across Waverly, Waterloo, and Cedar Falls by championing local conservation through hands-on outdoor education. In his early fifties, Brown combines lifelong knowledge of tree and plant identification, wildlife tracking, mushroom foraging, and woodworking with a passion for mentoring youth and engaging communities. His commitment is growing conservation awareness by teaching Iowans to understand, appreciate, and protect their natural environment—one forest, field, and classroom at a time.
Reviving Outdoor Learning in the Heartland
Each season, Brown leads dozens of walks and workshops designed to reconnect participants with Iowa’s natural landscapes. By guiding small-group hikes through local forests, parks, and schoolyards, he teaches participants how to identify native species, track
wildlife, test soils, and forage sustainably. These experiences captivate audiences with hands-on tools—field guides, magnifying lenses, and seasonal lessons in tree anatomy or fungi cycles.
While walking beneath towering oaks at George Wyth State Park, for example, Brown narrates the trees’ ecological role, equating them to community pillars. He explains how these trees filter water, provide habitat and even hold historical memories of past
generations. Parents, children, and teachers leave his events talking about soil health and wildlife corridors in their own neighborhoods.
Passing Skills to Future Generations
Mark emphasizes youth engagement as a cornerstone of sustainable conservation. He designs and teaches programs in local schools where students plant native gardens or construct bird and bat houses made from reclaimed wood. Brown trains youth volunteers to lead mini-workshops for their peers, nurturing confidence and leadership skills. At a spring planting day in Waverly, over fifty students repurposed plastic bottles to grow milkweed seedlings—a vital host plant for monarch butterflies. Mark led the event with
hands-on instruction, sharing why native plants matter not only for pollinators and soil health, but also for community identity and pride. At its conclusion, students cheered while transplanting seedlings into the school’s pollinator garden, already planning next year’s maintenance and expansion.
Deepening Community Stewardship
Inspirational education extends to adult audiences. Recently, Brown led a “Forest to Table” dinner in Cedar Falls featuring ingredients ethically foraged from local woods. The event paired culinary delight—marsala mushrooms and leafy greens—with ecological insights on
nutrient cycling and sustainable harvesting. Attendees left with not only belly-full satisfaction, but renewed motivation to practice eco-conscious foraging and land stewardship in their backyards.
Brown works with local conservation boards, master gardeners, and civic organizations to scale these efforts. His collaboration with the Black Hawk County Conservation Board resulted in a series of family outdoor education days at Butler Forest Reserve, offering guided hikes, plant workshops, and wildlife tracking for all ages.
Blending Old‑World Crafts with Modern Ecology
In addition to outdoor education, Brown creatively integrates craftsmanship into conservation. Participants in his woodworking workshops repurpose fallen limbs into practical items—canoe paddles, walking sticks, garden planters—engraved with notes on species and origin. Attendees leave with tools, skills, and a deeper connection to the land that provided the raw materials.
During one workshop in Waterloo, attendees processed oak salvaged from storm‑damaged city streets. Under Brown’s supervision, they crafted birdhouses which the group later donated to a local park. By guiding every step, from log selection to finishing, Brown instilled
a sense of pride and respect for responsible harvesting.
Faith‑Backed Conservation Mission
As an active member of his local church, Mark intertwines faith with outdoor stewardship. He regularly leads camping retreats where participants reflect on creation through devotional readings, prayer, and hands-on conservation projects like trail maintenance and native plant
propagation. He emphasizes that caring for Earth aligns directly with spiritual values, fostering a sense of moral purpose in environmental work.
During a recent church-organized “Creation Care Weekend” at a Cedar Valley camp, Brown led a youth-led forest restoration project. Teens, assisted by Brown, planted hundreds of native saplings, conducting soil tests and tracking tree growth. Brown facilitated discussions
connecting scripture with ecological action, helping participants understand their role as stewards of divine creation.
National Park Stories Reinforce Local Action
Brown draws inspiration from his travels to national parks across the country, incorporating those experiences into local conservation messaging. He shares images and stories from places like Yellowstone and Great Smoky Mountains to illustrate what thoughtful land protection can achieve. Local audiences leave events excited to replicate park-level stewardship in their community. During his recent “Parks to Prairie” lecture series across Cedar Valley, Brown juxtaposed images of majestic mountain vistas with nearby Iowa prairies, encouraging listeners to recognize local ecological heritage. He urged attendees to preserve what may seem modest, reminding them: even small local areas can serve as vibrant ecosystems when treated with care.
Achieving Recognitions and Growing Impact
Mark Brown has received civic commendations for his work, including the Black Hawk County Conservation Award and a special community recognition during “Arbor Week” by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. His programs receive strong support from local councils, churches, and grassroots volunteers. In Waverly, his “Seeds of the Soil” initiative is planting a native corridor along the Cedar River, connecting riparian zones and enhancing wildlife habitat. The project has mobilized over 200 volunteers to plant trees, remove invasive species, and maintain riparian buffer zones.
Scaling Efforts with Digital Engagement
To broaden his reach, Brown recently launched an online platform providing virtual nature workshops, instructional videos, species-identification guides, and eco-friendly action plans. Through email newsletters and social media, he encourages a growing community of conservation advocates and home gardeners to build native habitats and track their environmental impact. The digital space has amplified his message beyond local county borders, drawing positive attention as far as small towns in other Midwestern states.
Looking Ahead: Cultivating Long‑Term Change
Going forward, Brown plans to introduce seasonal “Nature Apprenticeship” programs, targeting teens and young adults. Participants will gain mentorship in outdoor education, ecological surveying, public speaking, and community outreach. Brown hopes these chosen apprentices become future conservation educators who can amplify and adapt his methods statewide.
He is also writing a manual for educators entitled “Outdoor Classroom: Iowa Edition.” The guidebook—scheduled for fall release—includes seasonal lesson plans, native species lists, activity guides, and suggestions for field trip implementation tailored to local regions and
school budgets.
Quote from a Community Partner
“We’ve worked closely with Mark for years,” says Sarah Jennings, Environmental Coordinator at Butler Forest Reserve. “He brings an unmatched combination of expertise and warmth. His programs don’t just teach—they inspire families to make conservation a daily habit. His impact on our community is tangible, meaningful, and enduring.”
