NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Organization and Description of Business

NEXT-ChemX Corporation, formerly known as AllyMe Group Inc. (“Company”, “we” or “us”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on August 13, 2014, and has adopted a December 31 fiscal year end. The Company trades on the OTC market (Pink Sheet) under the symbol “CHMX”. On December 23, 2021, the Company filed SEC Form 8-12G becoming a mandatory filer and has since complied with the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Commission as a reporting issuer.

Since April 2021, following a complete change of the Company’s shareholders, management, assets and strategy, the business of the Company is the commercialization of a novel innovative Ion-Targeting Continuous-Flow Direct Extraction Technology (“iTDE Technology”) as further described in Note 5 below. The iTDE Technology is embodied in certain patents and patent applications as well as proprietary knowledge.

The primary focus of the Company is the commercial launch of its iTDE Technology in a scalable system, deployable remotely to customer locations, which will enable the commercial extraction of lithium from natural brines and geothermal sources as well as liquors from leached mined ore solutions. In addition, during the first quarter, management began to focus on developing two to three other targeted systems for the mining of metals as well as water treatment systems and recycling.

Potential future commercial applications for the iTDE Technology include:

	●	Extracting Fatty Acids from Vegetable Oils for More Economical Refining;
	●	Extracting of Radioactive Ions from Nuclear Plant Stored Water;
	●	Extracting of Metal Ions from Mine Leach Solutions, Effluent, or Tailings; and
	●	Desalination of Sea Water, by Extracting Ions for Water Purification

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company has continued to manage the construction of the first of two pilot plant systems that will form the basis of its ongoing commercialization efforts by demonstrating the scalability of the system for commercial purposes, by providing actual commercial data to define typical running costs, and by generating commercial interest by processing samples supplied by potential customers to demonstrate the iTDE technology’s capability commercially. The two planned systems include (i) a smaller flexible system utilizing the iTDE Technology that will enable the processing of solutions containing lithium to demonstrate the commercial viability of the system; and (ii) a larger system that will handle the processing of industrial quantities of brines, better demonstrating the scalability and performance of the system when used commercially to extract lithium. This work is being carried out in India under contract.

The smaller system was designed to facilitate work on refinement of the basic iTDE system by enabling changes to sensor types and positions as well as adaptations to its other relevant systems. It is expected this will contribute to improvements in efficiency and assist in the modelling of the process for commercial implementation, enabling changes that will reduce the cost and improve the economics of the process. The inherent flexibility of the design also allows the Company to conduct its research into the extraction of other elements thereby exploring the commercial viability of the extraction of other elements.

The first system is expected to be completed during third quarter of 2025.

The Company anticipates first running extraction tests on brine solutions mixed with controlled defined quantities of elements that approximate the naturally occurring brines of potential customers. The Company has already received brine samples from Clontarf Energy plc, a UK AIM listed company with whom the Company concluded an agreement to iTDE Technology in Bolivia through a jointly established commercial venture. The composition of these brines will be the basis for modeling these controlled samples. This initial calibration of the system will be done by making synthetic brines based upon analytical data received from the Bolivian State Lithium Company and should provide a basis for better testing with actual brines. We expect large container sized sample of actual brines to arrive in India around October of 2024 for testing in our pilot plant system.

We have also engaged with another Indian company to test the effectiveness of their nano-filtration system to use in front of our pilot plant system to remove significant amounts of divalent ions, such as magnesium and calcium, without the use of any chemicals. This may make our complete system more economical in challenging remote areas such as our project with Clontarf in Bolivia.

Due to a lack of funding, the Company has scaled back its intellectual property protection strategy in the near term.
