Our purpose is finding better ways to provide the materials the world needs – striving for innovation and continuous improvement to produce materials with low emissions and to the right environmental, social and governance standards. But we can’t do it on our own, so we’re focused on creating partnerships to solve problems, create win-win situations and meet opportunities.
Recognized as a pioneer and leader in the industrial minerals industry due to product quality, supply reliability and technical support; we are proud to make modern life work. Lithium is part of our portfolio of materials essential to a low-carbon future and is a key element needed for low-carbon technologies. The Battery Materials unit is comprised of the Borates operations in US, the Jadar Project in Serbia and the Rincon project in Argentina, leading in mining borates and lithium for a more sustainable future. The Rincon lithium project is a large undeveloped lithium brine project located in the heart of the lithium triangle in the Salta Province of Argentina, an emerging hub for greenfield projects. It is a long-life, scalable resource with one of the lowest carbon footprints of lithium assets in the world.
