Our Vision
Brines over Mines
We envision a world where lithium and other critical materials are no longer a bottleneck in the clean energy transition. In this new world, mineral abundance is achieved through sustainable practices.
Locally Sourced Lithium
We want to ramp up the local
lithium production environment
Sustainable Mining
Source lithium with minimal
water and hazardous chemicals
Simplified Supply Chains
We envision a world where sourced Lithium doesn't travel 1000s of miles
OUR MISSION
The key to domestic Lithium: Brines
Brines in North America contain enough lithium to produce over 300 million electric vehicles, yet these resources have been barely touched. With our technology we can extract Lithium from dilute Brines, which unlocks 75% of the Lithium stored in US Brines.
