As we write this in June 2022, the price of lithium carbonate has skyrocketed 600% in the past year from about $10,000 a metric ton to more than $70,000.
Volkswagen will lead this drive with a goal of building 15 million EVs in the next five years. GM wants to build 1 million EVs a year.
If the average EV battery size holds, the world is going to need at least 20.8 billion pounds, or 10.4 million tons, of lithium over the next decade.
Its exploration project is located in the middle of the Lithium Triangle, where an estimated two-thirds of the world’s 19 million metric tons of lithium is believed to exist.
Spey Resources is one of only three companies currently exploring the Incahuasi Salar… the other two are Ganfeng Lithium and Allkem. Both are major miners with multi-billion- dollar market caps.
This cutting-edge lithium extraction process can produce lithium carbonate in hours not years. This could allow Spey Resources to produce at a fraction of the price of a traditional lithium brine operation.
While Spey Resources may still occasionally trade well under $1, it’s neighbors in the Incahuasi Lithium Salar, Ganfeng Lithium and Allkem, currently trade for $12 and $ 8.50. Investors with eyes to the future should take heed.
