INCLINE VILLAGE, NV / ACCESSWIRE / June 29, 2020 / American Battery Metals Corporation (OTCQB:ABML) (the 'Company'), an American-owned advanced extraction and battery recycling technology company with extensive mineral resources in Nevada, is pleased to announce the closing of a $2,625,000 common stock financing round. Initially targeting $2 million, the friends, family and insider investment round was over-subscribed. American Battery Metals Corporation Chief Technology Officer, Ryan Melsert participated with an investment of $150,000. The restricted common stock is subject to registration rights or a six-month hold sellable under Rule 144.

American Battery Metals Corporation Chief Executive Officer, Doug Cole, commented, 'We are extremely pleased with the commitment of our friends, family and insiders, who believe in our long-term vision of becoming the world's first fully integrated battery metals supply chain provider. Our near-term capital needs are met with the additional capital raised in this friends, family and insider round. Of note, we never put all of our eggs in one basket, as we have always been pursuing multiple financing strategies in parallel and are currently engaged with several debt and equity financing partners to fund as needed for the construction of the Company's battery metals recycling plants and long-term capital expenditures. We are convinced that we are moving down financing paths that will be less dilutive to current shareholders than the previous proposed terms.'

Cole, continued, 'I am proud of the talented team we have assembled with vast experience in battery metals, state of the art recycling technology, extraction, and resource permitting. We expect the battery recycling plant to commence commercial operations in the fourth quarter 2020 with additional value add operations implemented during the second quarter of 2021. As always, we will continue to be communicative and transparent to shareholders.'
