Cooper Lithium Project
Hydro Lit holds exclusive mineral rights over ~9958 km² in South Australia’s Cooper Basin. The project area hosts a JORC-compliant inferred resource of 25.2 million tonnes LCE with an exploration target up to 102 million tonnes LCE, sufficient to support multiple projects and decades of lithium supply.
High Quality Project
Represents an unparalleled lithium opportunity in terms of size, purity, ease of extraction and time to production.
Material Resource Size
One of the world’s largest inferred JORC-compliant lithium resources with 25.2 million tonnes LCE.
Large Exploration Potential
Significant existing data package from historical exploration. Exploration Target of up to 102 million tonnes LCE.
Low-Carbon Solution
The future of low carbon/green lithium production with a high fluid temperature providing potential for low cost/green geothermal energy.
Substantial Production
The Cooper Lithium Project has world-class scale with initial production target of 30,000tpa LCE and potential to expand to 60,000tpa.
Lithium Content
One of the highest-grade lithium waters in the world with up to 320 mg/l in solution.
Low Critical Impurities
One of the lowest Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) to lithium ratio (<20,000ppm TDS) globally, with circa 5ppm magnesium content which is expected to simplify recovery.
Favorable Jurisdiction
Australia has a supportive regulatory regime and a low-risk operating environment with strong energy transition mandates supported by Federal Grants. The Cooper Lithium Project is located in established area with extensive industrial activity and infrastructure.
First Mover Advantage
Hydro Lit holds mineral licences covering 9958km², capturing an entire region in South Australia.
Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) Technology
Hydro Lit can deploy DLE technology to extract and process lithium from the produced fluids with minimal environment impact. This process eliminates the need for surface evaporation ponds, drastically reduces or eliminates water consumption (compared to hard-rock mining) and produces battery-grade lithium onsite without the need for export to refineries overseas.
