Top Reasons to Invest in Lithium Heading into New Year 2024 November 30, 2023 - Baystreet.ca Analysts still don’t believe the world will have enough lithium supply to meet demand. As noted by Reuters, “Albemarle (NYSE: ALB), the world’s largest lithium producer, is growing rapidly across the Americas, Asia and Australia. Still, it expects global lithium demand to exceed supply by 500,000 metric tons in 2030. Various consultancies and other producers have slightly different projections, but all warn of a looming shortage.” Even analysts over at Morningstar believe lithium supplies will need to rise from about 800,000 metric tons in 2022 to about 2.5 million by 2030 to meet demand. Those are all strong catalysts for companies such as LI-FT Power Ltd. (TSXV: LIFT) (OTCQX: LIFFF), Lithium Americas (NYSE: LAC) (TSX: LAC), American Lithium Corp. (NASDAQ: AMLI) (TSXV: LI), and Piedmont Lithium (NASDAQ: PLL). Look at Li-FT Power Ltd. (TSXV: LIFT) (OTCQX: LIFFF), For Example Li-FT Power Ltd. announced that it has obtained a Type A Land Use Permit from the Mackenzie Valley Land and Water Board for its Cali project in Northwest Territories. The Land Use Permit will enable LIFT to expand its exploration activities in the Cali area and allows the Company to establish an exploration camp and fuel caches, conduct diamond and reverse circulation drilling, and construct & maintain winter access roads. This Permit will grant the Company adaptability to scale up its exploration efforts, adjusting its approach according to the findings and enhanced knowledge of the area. The Land Use Permit has a term of five years, which may be extended for an additional two years. April Hayward, Chief Sustainability Officer of LIFT commented “I am very pleased with the terms and conditions in the Land Use Permit, which provide LIFT with the flexibility to expand our exploration program in response to results as we learn more about the area. I am also grateful for the support and feedback we received throughout the permitting process and look forward to continuing to strengthen the collaborative working relationships we have developed with regulatory agencies and local communities in the Cali area.” LIFT is dedicated to working with local communities to find the right balance between environmental and socio-economic impacts. LIFT is committed to creating a culture of safety for all stakeholders, including its employees, contractors, and local communities by adhering to the highest standards of environmental and social responsibility. Other related developments from around the markets include: Albemarle Corporation signed agreements with Caterpillar Inc. to collaborate on solutions to support the full circular battery value chain and sustainable mining operations. The collaboration aims to support Albemarle's efforts to establish Kings Mountain, N.C. as the first-ever zero-emissions lithium mine site in North America. These efforts include utilization of next-generation, battery-powered mining equipment. Caterpillar and Albemarle signed an agreement making Albemarle's North American-produced lithium available for use in Caterpillar battery production. The two companies will also explore opportunities to collaborate on research and development of battery cell technology and recycling techniques. Lithium Americas, now Lithium Americas (Argentina) Corp. and a new Lithium Americas Corp. jointly announced the completion of the reorganization of Lithium Americas into two independent publicly traded companies, implemented by way of statutory plan of arrangement. “We look forward to seeing these two market-leading companies thrive independently,” said Jonathan Evans, President and CEO of Lithium Americas (NewCo) and former President and CEO of Lithium Americas. “The Separation offers investors two unique and highly focused pure-play lithium companies with world-class assets in our respective regions of operation.” American Lithium Corp. announced a new lithium discovery from the initial drill hole completed at one of the key discovery targets previously identified from 2021 field work conducted near the Community of Quelcaya. Further holes have been drilled near this discovery with identical geology to the discovery hole and full assays expected shortly. The Quelcaya exploration project comprises 3 areas of mapped surface lithium mineralization located 5.5 to 11 km west of the Company’s Falchani lithium deposit near the village of Quelcaya in Puno, southeastern Peru (see Figure 1 – Quelcaya – Falchani Drill Platform Location Map, below). Quelcaya was the first of three exploration drilling permits submitted by the Company, which was granted by the Peruvian Ministry of Energy and Mines (MINEM) in May 2023. Drilling continues in and around Quelcaya with 6 drill hole platforms planned in total, each with multiple holes. Piedmont Lithium announced a strategic investment in a large prospective lithium project in Newfoundland, Canada. Piedmont has agreed to pay C$2 million for a 19.9% equity interest in Vinland Lithium Inc., a new entity established with Sokoman Minerals Corp. (40.1%) and Benton Resources Inc. (40.1%). The Company also may earn up to a 62.5% equity interest in Killick Lithium Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vinland Lithium holding a 100% interest in the Killick Lithium Project, through a staged investment agreement. Piedmont will be entitled to 100% marketing rights and a right of first refusal on 100% offtake rights to any lithium concentrate produced by the Project on a life-of-mine basis at competitive commercial rates.
