These <a href=\"https:\/\/capital10x.com\/old\/worlds-top-3-lithium-miners-by-output\/\">three countries<\/a> account for 90% of the world\u2019s proven and probable lithium reserves.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-pullquote su-pullquote-align-right\">Since it takes eight to 10 years to build a lithium mine from scratch most of the near-term supply growth will come from expansions of existing production facilities.<\/div>\n<p>Rechargeable-battery manufacturers currently consume 46% of all the world\u2019s lithium, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/publications.industry.gov.au\/publications\/resourcesandenergyquarterlyjune2019\/index.html\">Australian government estimates<\/a>. By 2025, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resource-capital.ch\/fileadmin\/reports\/2017\/final_Lithium.2_en_.pdf\">Swiss Resource Capital<\/a> and Canaccord estimate the battery and accumulator sector \u2014 in association with EV manufacturers \u2014 will account for up to 75% of lithium consumption, bringing demand to 700,000 tons lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE).<\/p>\n<p>With so few viable deposits and such large capital requirements \u2014 it takes eight to 10 years to build a lithium mine from scratch \u2014 most of the near-term supply growth will come from expansions of existing production facilities. In this article, we look at the three largest brownfield expansions currently in or close to development.<\/p>\n<h2>Greenbushes, Australia<\/h2>\n<p>The Greenbushes lithium mine, about 250 km (155 mi) south of Perth in Western Australia, is the world\u2019s largest producing spodumene deposit. It has undergone several expansions over the past 30 years, with another on the way as operator Talison Lithium aims to keep pace with increasing global demand.<\/p>\n<p>Talison, jointly owned by <strong>Tianqi Lithium<\/strong> [stock_market_widget type=\"inline\" template=\"generic\" color=\"default\" assets=\"002466\" markup=\"(SHE: {symbol} {currency_symbol}{price} ({change_pct}))\" api=\"yf\"] &#8211; Market Cap $3.81b, 51% share; and <strong>Albemarle<\/strong> [stock_market_widget type=\"inline\" template=\"generic\" color=\"default\" assets=\"ALB\" markup=\"(NYSE: {symbol} {currency_symbol}{price} ({change_pct}))\" api=\"yf\"] &#8211; M\/C: $7.45b, 49% share) is planning an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.epa.wa.gov.au\/sites\/default\/files\/Referral_Documentation\/Supporting%20Report.pdf\">expansion that will double Greenbushes\u2019 production<\/a> to 9.5 million tons per year of spodumene, bringing production of lithium mineral concentrate to 2.3 Mtpa of lithium mineral concentrate, or around 195,000 LCE<a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\">[i]<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.epa.wa.gov.au\/media-statements\/expansion-greenbushes-lithium-mine-recommended-environmental-approval\">Western Australia\u2019s Environmental Protection Authority<\/a> recently approved the project, subject to certain conditions including the protection of endangered black cockatoos in the area. Commissioning is expected this year.<\/p>\n<p>Tianqi\u2019s contribution to the A$1 billion<a href=\"#_edn2\" name=\"_ednref2\">[ii]<\/a> ($680 million) expansion will be A$516 million, the company reported as part of a now-lapsed bid to list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The lithium concentrate produced by the process plant will be transported by truck to one of two lithium hydroxide production plants in Western Australia: Tianqi\u2019s Kwinana plant, which is under construction; or Albemarle\u2019s Kemerton plant, which is in planning.<\/p>\n<h2>Salar de Atacama, Chile<\/h2>\n<p><strong>SQM<\/strong> [stock_market_widget type=\"inline\" template=\"generic\" color=\"default\" assets=\"SQM\" markup=\"(NYSE: {symbol} {currency_symbol}{price} ({change_pct}))\" api=\"yf\"] &#8211; M\/C: $3.44b), full name Sociedad Qu\u00edmica y Minera de Chile S.A, the world\u2019s other major lithium producer alongside Albemarle and Tianqi Lithium, has its sole production facility in the Atacama Desert in northern Chile. It is involved in a major joint-venture development in Australia<a href=\"#_edn3\" name=\"_ednref3\">[iii]<\/a>, but the expansion of its Chilean production remains the key to its growth strategy.<\/p>\n<p>SQM produces lithium carbonate from brines extracted from the Salar de Atacama, the largest salt flat in Chile. Its lithium carbonate facility, located 230 km away near the port city of Antofagasta, had a production capacity of 70,000 Mtpa LCE at the end of 2018. SQM is preparing for expansion to 180,000 Mtpa LCE in future. The initial phase, which will bring capacity to 120,000 Mtpa LCE by the end of 2021, will <a href=\"https:\/\/seekingalpha.com\/article\/4266097-sociedad-quimica-y-minera-de-chile-s-2019-q1-results-earnings-call-slides?part=single\">cost SQM around $280 million<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Salar de Olaroz, Argentina<\/h2>\n<p>Most of the world\u2019s lithium resources can be found in the dry Atacama Desert region shared by Chile, Argentina, and Bolivia. While Chile is the major lithium producer in the region \u2013 and the world number two, behind Australia \u2013 Argentina also has two production facilities. One of these facilities, Salar de Olaroz, is about to undergo a major expansion.<\/p>\n<p>Joint-venture partners <strong>Orocobre Limited<\/strong> [stock_market_widget type=\"inline\" template=\"generic\" color=\"default\" assets=\"ORE\" markup=\"(ASX: {symbol} {currency_symbol}{price} ({change_pct}))\" api=\"yf\"] [stock_market_widget type=\"inline\" template=\"generic\" color=\"default\" assets=\"ORL\" markup=\"(TSX: {symbol} {currency_symbol}{price} ({change_pct}))\" api=\"yf\"] &#8211; M\/C $465 million) and Toyota Tsusho Corporation (a member of the Toyota Group) last year approved the expansion of lithium carbonate production capacity by 25,000 Mtpa, bringing total capacity to around 42,500 Mtpa LCE. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.orocobre.com\/wp\/?mdocs-file=5077\">Salar de Olaroz<\/a> expansion, due for commissioning in the second half of 2020, will produce technical-grade lithium carbonate, part of which will become feedstock for the proposed Naraha lithium hydroxide plant in Japan. Total capital expenditure for the expansion is expected to be $295 million, including $25 million contingency.<a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Australia, Chile, and Argentina are home to three of the biggest brownfield developments for Lithium Metal.
