Tees Valley Lithium meets UK Minister in Australia

Tees Valley Lithium has hosted the UK Minister for the Indo-Pacific on a visit to the Australian port where it hopes to create a lithium sulphate refinery to feed its £200m North East facility.

The listed company met with Berwick MP Anne-Marie Trevelyan at Port Hedland on Australia’s West Coast, near where Tees Valley Lithium (TVL) plans to create a low carbon lithium sulphate refinery that will process minerals extracted in the country before being shipped to Teesside. Earlier this year TVL announced it had secured a 43-hectare freehold site at Boodaries Strategic Industrial Area, 12km south of Port Hedland.

The Port is the world’s largest bulk export port, with exports including iron ore, lithium and salt. Coinciding with the Minister’s visit, Tees Valley Lithium also met with Australian mining operators who it hopes to work with in processing spodumene – the raw material that contains small amounts of lithium.

Alkemy Capital Investments plc (LON:ALK, FRA: JV2) is focussed on developing projects in the energy transition metals sector. Alkemy’s wholly-owned subsidiary Tees Valley Lithium (TVL) is developing a state of the art lithium hydroxide plant at Teesside, UK. TVL is Europe’s largest independent and sustainable lithium hydroxide producer.
