Following the achievement of first lithium carbonate production in June 2023, Caucharí-Olaroz has been consistently producing lithium carbonate as commissioning and ramp-up continue. Production is currently achieving 99.5% lithium carbonate content with technical quality specifications approaching battery quality.
The Project produced approximately 6,000 tonnes of lithium carbonate in 2023 exceeding the Company’s previous guidance of 5,000 tonnes. The first lithium shipment left Argentina in early October with regular shipments continuing since then.
