Li-Metal are evaluating brownfield facilities in North America for a project to produce lithium metal from lithium carbonate.

I would think there are very few suitable and available brownfield sites in North America to choose from.

I would think there are even less that are near a facility that could produce the lithium carbonate feedstock required.

I am thinking the disused paper mill at Amos, would probably fit the bill to produce the lithium metal.

I am also thinking that having such a facility within a short distance (29km) of a lithium mine and lithium carbonate plant comes close to a fully integrated lithium metal supply chain.

“Godavarthy said Li-Metal is in discussions with state and provincial officials to evaluate the feasibility of the facility in a North American brownfield site. Quebec is the current front-runner, he said, because of its low energy costs. Another possible location is upstate New York, Godavarthy told Sustainable Biz Canada.”
