OUR VISION
We're Building The Future Of Sustainable Lithium Production
LiTHOS is developing the trusted standard for environmentally efficient and economically sustainable lithium resource development.


Unlocking New Resources
Most of the world’s lithium reserves are found in brines – natural salt water deposits. Currently 2/3 of the world production of lithium is extracted from brines, a practice that evaporates on average half a million litres of brine per ton of lithium carbonate. Furthermore, the extraction is chemical intensive, extremely slow, and delivers large volumes of waste.
The conventional process for extracting lithium from brines requires large evaporation ponds that are environmentally damaging, slow to start up, and vulnerable to weather. This conventional process suffers from low lithium recovery, low product purity, and is ineffective for most new brine discoveries with lower grades of lithium. Lithium producers are seeking new extraction methods.
Brine resources – natural deposits of salt water – contain enough lithium to power the world. However, efforts to increase production from brines have mostly stalled due to environmental and technical problems. Lithium brine resource owners need new technology to deliver new production quickly, efficiently, and sustainably.
