Lake Resources NL (
Production from the flagship Kachi Lithium Brine Project is targeted to commence in 2024 at a rate of 50,000 tpa lithium carbonate. Kachi is indicatively financed into production with long dated low cost project finance from the UK Export Finance and Canada's EDC for approximately 70% of the total finance required for Kachi's development, subject to standard project finance terms (ASX release 11 Aug 2021).
Lake's development plan uses a cost-effective DLE method that enables Lake to come to market quickly at significant scale with strong ESG benefits, a low carbon (CO2) footprint, low water and low land use.
High purity battery quality lithium carbonate (99.97% purity) has been produced (ASX release 20 Oct 2020) from pilot plant modules, which performed successfully in NMC622-based lithium-ion battery test cells (ASX release 2 Mar 2021). A Lilac demonstration plant has been assembled and dispatched to the Kachi Project (ASX release 3 Mar 2022).
Lake aims to bring forward development projects at Olaroz, Cauchari and Paso targeting annual production of 100,000 tonnes of high purity lithium chemical to market by 2030.
