Ordinary Shares at a price of 16 pence per new Ordinary
Share.
The Company also granted a Broker Option to

£2.0 million can be raised at the Issue Price. In view of the
potential interest of retail shareholders in participating in the
Fundraising, the Company also announced a retail offer via
BookBuild (the "Retail
Offer") of new ordinary shares (the "Retail Offer Shares") at a price of 16
pence per Retail Offer Share together with one Warrant for every
Retail Offer Share. The Retail Offer is only being made available
to existing shareholders of the Company on the same financial terms
as shares are available under the Broker Option.
The amount raised under the Broker Option and
the Retail Offer will not in aggregate exceed £2
million.
Words and expressions defined in the
Company's announcements of 10 and 17 February 2025 shall have the
same meaning in this announcement.

Notes
CleanTech Lithium (AIM:CTL,
Frankfurt:T2N, OTCQX:CTLHF) is an exploration and development
company advancing lithium projects in Chile for the clean
energy transition. Committed to net-zero, CleanTech Lithium's
mission is to become a new supplier of battery grade lithium using
Direct Lithium Extraction technology powered by renewable
energy.
CleanTech Lithium has two key
lithium projects in Chile, Laguna Verde and Viento Andino, and
exploration stage projects in Llamara and Arenas Blancas
(Salar de Atacama), located in the lithium triangle, a leading
centre for battery grade lithium production. The two most advanced
projects: Laguna Verde and Viento Andino are situated
within basins controlled by the Company, which affords significant
potential development and operational advantages. All four projects
have good access to existing infrastructure.
CleanTech Lithium is committed to
utilising Direct Lithium Extraction with reinjection of spent brine
resulting in no aquifer depletion. Direct Lithium Extraction is a
transformative technology which removes lithium from brine with
higher recoveries, short development lead times and no extensive
evaporation pond construction. www.ctlithium.com
