A Lithium brine pool. Saudi Arabia is exploring projects that can produce lithium for batteries in an effort to ramp up production in the Middle Eastern oil exporter.
Saudi Arabia has successfully extracted lithium from brine samples from national giant Aramco's oilfields and plans to launch a commercial pilot programme for direct extraction soon, the Saudi vice minister of mining affairs said on Tuesday.
Saudi Arabia is a step closer to becoming part of the global battery industry after deals to develop lithium processing and anode material projects in the country. The deals could make Saudi Arabia’s lithium ion supply chain the most developed in the Middle East, which right now has virtually no battery material capacity. Saudi Arabia’s […]
Separately, Saudi Aramco is working on a joint project to extract lithium from brine taken from oil fields, the state energy giant said in an e-mailed response to questions. The presence of lithium and its concentrations and the prospects for extraction are being evaluated, the company said.
The state-run mining investment venture Manara Minerals Investment Co. is seeking to develop nickel processing in Saudi Arabia and the kingdom is also studying graphite production, Al-Mudaifer said. Nickel and graphite, which can be synthesized in the oil-refining process, can also be used in battery technologies.
Saudi Arabia, whose economy for decades has relied on oil, has spent billions on trying to turn itself into a hub for EVs as part of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman 's attempts to find alternative sources of wealth. Be the first one to comment.
