Thursday, April 6, 2023

PALM BEACH, Fla., April 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The surging demand for storing grid-based energy is one of the key factors that is expected to drive the demand for Lithium ion batteries and, hence, propel the metal's mining requirement. Growing technological investments in metallurgy and mining would accelerate the metal's production through mining. New technological studies have led to developing such mining techniques, which are more energy and resource-efficient. New techniques, such as direct extraction technologies, use organic sieves instead of vast evaporation ponds, making mining and extraction a sustainable practice. Hence, growing advancements and technological development of such mining practices would propel the market growth during the projected period through the next several years. According to Fortune Business Insights, the global lithium mining market size is projected to grow to $516.22 million by 2028, growing at Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 6% through 2028. It said that the high demand for power because of the surging urbanization and industrialization worldwide would affect growth positively. It would result in the increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries for storing the excessive energy. The report said: "The market has been analyzed across major countries, including the United States, Canada, Portugal, China, Australia, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Brazil, Namibia, Nigeria, and Zimbabwe. The market is dominated by Australia due to a high amount of lithium reserves, coupled with massive mining projects in the country. The growing awareness of utilizing environment-friendly electric vehicles would also drive the market growth in the country." Active mining stocks in the markets this week include: Lithium South Development Corporation (OTCQB: LISMF) (TSX-V: LIS), Livent Corporation (NYSE: LTHM), Sayona Mining Limited (OTCQB: SYAXF), American Lithium Corp. (NASDAQ: AMLI) (TSX-V: LI), Piedmont Lithium Inc. (NASDAQ: PLL).

Key Points: 
  • One additional shallow monitoring well was completed at Natalia Maria adjacent to the deep monitoring well in the original corehole.
  • The high-grade lithium results across seven holes at Alba Sabrina, as well as the very high-grade lithium samples from Natalia Maria, demonstrate the potential of the HMN Li Project.
  • The Company is on track to achieve its objective to potentially expand the current National Instrument 43-101 Lithium Carbonate Equivalent resource.
  • Continued strength in lithium market conditions and customer demand resulted in higher sequential volumes, the impact of which was partially offset by a less favorable customer mix.

PALM BEACH, Fla., March 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The market for lithium-ion batteries is likely to grow significantly over the next several years as a result of the electrification of cars, which will spur lithium mining during that period. A report from ResearchAndMarkets projected that the Global Lithium market , which was valued at USD 4650 Million in 2021 and expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.5% during the forecast period of 2023-2028. The report said: "Due to the strict rules that ICE automakers must adhere to in order to minimize carbon dioxide emissions from automobiles, the automotive application market is predicted to increase significantly over the course of the projection period. This has caused automakers to become more interested in creating EVs, which is expected to increase demand for lithium and related goods. Together with investments in this area, government subsidies for EVs are projected to serve as an additional catalyst for the market's expansion. Also, the growing lithium-ion battery market will be able to get enough products from the lithium sector. Direct lithium extraction (DLE) and direct lithium to product (DLP), which are anticipated to grow tenfold between 2021 and 2030, can be the driving factors behind the industry's ability to react more quickly to skyrocketing demand."  Active mining stocks in the markets this week include:  Lithium South Development Corporation (OTCQB: LISMF) (TSX-V: LIS), Lithium Americas Corp.

VANCOUVER, BC, March 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- USA News Group - Back in late Summer 2022, it was still too early to say whether Brazil had the potential to be a global player in the lithium industry. However, as a new Brazilian mine is set to produce lithium in 2023, the world is taking notice. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz recently returned from a trip to South America, visiting Argentina, Chile, and Brazil, with an intent to expand collaboration on green energy. Securing battery and EV metals from Brazil is clearly a priority for many larger interests, including Warren-Buffett-backed Chinese EV giant BYD Company Limited (OTCPK: BYDDY) (OTCPK: BYDDF) even considering production in Brazil. Now research analysts at Benchmark Minerals are predicting that Brazil is set to more than double its share of global lithium mining this decade, as Sigma Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ: SGML) (TSXV: SGML) ramps up towards production in April 2023. Joining Sigma in the Brazil lithium scene are other developers such as Lithium Ionic Corp. (TSXV: LTH) (OTCQB: LTHCF), Atlas Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ: ATLX), and the latest entrant to the region, Infinity Stone Ventures Corp. (CSE: GEMS) (OTCQB: GEMSF).

Key Points: 
  • However, as a new Brazilian mine is set to produce lithium in 2023, the world is taking notice.
  • Now research analysts at Benchmark Minerals are predicting that Brazil is set to more than double its share of global lithium mining this decade, as Sigma Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ: SGML) (TSXV: SGML) ramps up towards production in April 2023 .
  • Sigma holds 27 mineral rights in four properties spread over 191 square kilometres (19,100 hectares), which include nine past-producing lithium mines.
  • Meanwhile, Sigma Lithium moved forward in the commissioning of its dense medium separation processing plant , gaining more traction towards becoming a lithium producer.
