CleanTech Lithium appoints Cutfield Freeman & Company as financial advisor
Aim-listed CleanTech Lithium has appointed Cutfield Freeman & Company (CF&Co) as its financial advisor to support the company with securing a strategic partner for the next phase of development at the Laguna Verde project, in Chile, and in structuring the financing pathway towards commercial production.
Funding the Laguna Verde project through its next and subsequent development stages is now of central importance following the company’s recent application for a Special Lithium Operating Contract (CEOL), and with the prefeasibility study (PFS) nearing completion, as previously reported by Mining Weekly.
CF&Co was appointed following a selection process involving a number of firms in the fourth quarter of 2025, and has been selected for its sector experience, having achieved meaningful results for some of CleanTech Lithium’s peers, the company explains.
“The appointment of CF&Co marks a significant next step in the evolution of CleanTech Lithium. As we progress the CEOL application through the streamlined process and prepare to release the Laguna Verde PFS, the timing is ideal to bring in an experienced advisor to support both our strategic partner process and the broader project financing pathway.
“CF&Co’s record, particularly in energy-transition minerals, gives us confidence that we can identify and secure the right partner to unlock the full value of the Laguna Verde project,” says CleanTech Lithium CEO Ignacio Mehech.
Founded in 2000, CF&Co deals exclusively with the mining and metals processing industry and has offices in London, Toronto, Hong Kong and Perth and provides advice across the spectrum of private mining finance.
