A team partially replaced lithium in a lithium antimonide compound with the metal scandium. This creates specific gaps, so-called vacancies, in the crystal lattice of the conductor material.

Measuring water availability for lithium extraction can still be unpredictable, especially in the high-altitude Lithium Triangle in Chile, Argentina and Bolivia. Current models can overestimate ...

As part of closing, Orion has purchased senior unsecured convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $195 million, has paid Lithium Americas $25 million in exchange for payments ...

Freshwater availability for lithium mining in the Lithium Triangle is significantly overestimated, with actual inflow ranging from 2 to 33 mm per year, contrary to previous estimates of 90 to 230 mm.

As you shop for new batteries for your devices, you'll most often come across two types — lithium and alkaline. While on the surface, they might look pretty similar, inside, they're worlds apart.

As China and Russia expand their lithium influence, the United States must rethink its policies to remain competitive in 2025. The new U.S. administration must rethink its entire lithium policy ...

Bolivia holds the world's largest proven lithium reserves but faces challenges in developing them due to low lithium purity, lack of infrastructure, and political instability. The country has ...

Lithium may be the key component in most modern batteries, but it doesn't make up the bulk of the material used in them. Instead, much of the material is in the electrodes, where the lithium gets ...

The discovery of 40 million metric tons of lithium in the McDermitt Caldera positions the US to become a major player in the global lithium market. The Thacker Pass project, set to begin ...

Lithium batteries dominate today’s rechargeable battery market, and while they have been wildly successful, challenges with lithium have spurred research into alternative chemistries that can improve ...

A massive lithium find in California's Salton Sea region could help boost domestic supplies of the mineral, which plays a critical role in production of electric vehicle (EV) batteries.

A new geological survey has discovered enough lithium to meet global demand for the next six years. The study, led by the United States Geological Survey, discovered between 5 million and 19 ...
