Direct Lithium Extraction: The Electric Vehicle Industry's Shale Boom


⛏️ Direct Lithium Extraction: The Electric Vehicle Industry's Shale Boom.

The lithium industry is set to undergo a significant transformation with the introduction of direct lithium extraction (DLE) technologies, which could revolutionize the supply of lithium from brine projects. These technologies have the potential to tap into brine deposits across the globe and extract up to 90% of lithium, compared to the 50% achieved through conventional methods. One of the biggest advantages of DLE is its ability to supply lithium for electric vehicle (EV) batteries within a matter of hours or days, significantly faster than the traditional 12-18 months required for extraction from evaporation ponds and open-pit mines.
