As global demand for electric vehicles (EV) grows, North American automotive manufacturers are seeking to regionalize their supply chain for greater security and sustainability. In addition to examining clay resources, Albemarle is seeking ways to optimize lithium extraction from its brine resources, including those in the Clayton Valley.
It’s no secret that a steady supply of lithium is essential to the growth of the electric vehicle industry both here and abroad. I’ve written here in the past about my company’s Smackover prospect in southwest Arkansas. Of the fresh water used, 94% of it was recaptured and recycled, thus minimizing its consumption.
Published in the journal Science Advances , the research said the lithium found in southern Arkansas could make up to 36% to 136% of the current US lithium reserve estimate – of course, that’s a sweeping number, but we get the gist. The researchers announced that it could contain anywhere from 5 million to 19 million tons of lithium. “If
Researchers at the US Geological Survey (USGS) say they have located high concentrations of lithium brine in the Smackover Formation in southern Arkansas. million metric tons) of lithium in Smackover Formation brine in southern Arkansas. to 19 million tons (4.63
With the demand for lithium expected to surpass supply by 2030, automakers have never been more pressed to secure the resource , especially as it becomes increasingly essential for the future of their business, specifically regarding the production of electric vehicles.
Stardust Power , a lithium refiner supplying the EV sector, is going to build the US’s largest battery-grade lithium refinery in Oklahoma. The refinery will be in Southside Industrial Park in Muskogee, Oklahoma, southeast of Tulsa, and is expected to be capable of producing up to 50,000 metric tonnes of battery-grade lithium annually.
battery production Lithium mining was extensive in North Carolina until the 1980s A lithium deposit located in southwestern Arkansas could hold enough of the metal to satisfy global EV battery demand nine times over, according to a U.S. Despite having one of the largest supplies of lithium, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)-led study.
These legal ambiguities are the latest impediment – alongside technical challenges and sagging commodity prices – to America’s plans to produce more of its own lithium and wean the country off foreign supplies, according to interviews with regulators from seven U.S. While the 1972 U.S.
The US government has approved the construction of a massive new lithium mine on public land in Nevada as part of a strategy to break China’s dominance over the supply chain of critical minerals used in EVs. The mine will be a key supplier to Ford’s future EVs.
But both have stated that they’re concerned about the ramifications for traditional supply chains and the possibility that the changes would negatively impact the U.S. However, the Clean Air Act and decades of increased regulatory involvement has kind of muddied the waters. Swelling vehicle prices was another issue.&
