Lithos Group is a mining technology company focused on selective extraction of aqueous minerals. The company’s AcQUATM technology allows lithium to be extracted from continental brine reservoirs without the need for additional freshwater or any added chemicals or reagents. Lithium is now among the world’s most in-demand metals as the world “electrifies” to reduce CO2 emissions, led by continuing growth in EV sales and the installation of hundreds of gigawatts of intermittent solar power generation capacity requiring partial battery storage solutions.
The company’s mission is to produce sustainable lithium without evaporation ponds. AcQUATM is the Lithos patent-pending technology that spans the complete value chain from the conditioning and pre-treatment of raw brines through the DLE phase into the polishing and purification of battery-grade lithium feedstock. Lithos has two processing facilities: a 4,000 sq ft lab in Denver, CO, and a 55,000 sq ft complex in Bessemer, AL.
Lithos is working with multiple strategic mineral resource owners, including brines from the largest Salars in Chile and the United States. Their wholly-owned subsidiary, Aqueous Resources LLC, is a US Department of Energy grant awardee and a Colorado Advanced Industries grant awardee.
