Lithium Opportunity
The modern world continues to grow increasingly dependent on the soft, silvery-white metal known as lithium. According to the CEO of Rockwood Holdings, Inc., one of the world's leading producers of the metal: "One can claim that without lithium, the whole mobile technology would not have been possible. You use the product every single day."
The US Department of Energy (DOE), meanwhile, points out that as the market for plugin hybrids, electric vehicles, and other advanced clean energy technologies continues to grow, lithium is among the critical materials needed to support that growth. Between growing global demand and manufacturers facing few alternatives to lithium, prices for the metal have tripled since 2000.
Lithium Uses & Applications

Looking forward, the $1 billion a year lithium market is forecast to double by 2020. In particular, lithium battery usage is growing at ~25% per annum, and is forecast to be a $43 billion market by 2020.Although batteries represent the fastest growing market for lithium, several other markets also rely on the metal. Estimated global enduse for all lithium markets includes ceramics and glass, 29%; batteries, 27%; lubricating greases, 12%; continuous casting, 5%; air treatment, 4%; polymers, 3%; primary aluminum production, 2%; pharmaceuticals: 2%; and other uses, 16%.4
Lithium in Batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are a relatively new technology. Though not commercially available until the 1990s, by 2010 they had already grown into an $11 billion market. Their greatest advantage is the ability to generate more electricity than competing batteries. Additional advantages of lithium-based batteries include their ultra lightweight (especially for mobile and vehicle applications); exhibiting no memory effect (extends battery life); compact design; and faster recharge times.Those advantages support various existing and emerging applications and markets. For the electronics market, lithium batteries make portable technologies possible, such as tablet computers, a new global market that is growing faster than expected with shipments in 2012 projected to exceed 107 million units.
For the DOE, lithium-ion batteries represent the potential to help integrate clean, renewable energy sources into the electricity grid by storing the energy from intermittent wind and solar sources for later release. By way of example, in Q3 2011 the largest lithium-ion battery farm in the world began storing energy from a 98-megawatt wind farm in West Virginia and releasing it to the electric grid.
Lithium Batteries in Vehicles
According to Market Research, while 90% of lithium-ion battery demand currently stems from consumer applications, diversified applications such as electrified vehicles are expected to provide new market growth drivers. Half of the hybrids and all electric vehicles are forecast to use lithium batteries by 2017.Leading the market in vehicle electrification is Toyota with its groundbreaking Prius hybrid, which first went on sale in 1997.
As of May 2012, Toyota had sold 4 million hybrid-electric vehicles worldwide. Today's Prius model uses a lithium-ion battery. Other major auto manufacturers also using lithium batteries include Ford, Honda, Hyundai and Kia. US - based battery maker A123 Systems Inc., meanwhile, supplies lithium based batteries for General Motors; the BMW 5 Series hybrid sedan; rechargeable and hybrid cars for China-based SAIC Motor Corp.; buses made by Daimler and Volvo; and delivery trucks built by Smith Electric Vehicles Corp.
Lithium Demand & Asian Markets
Emerging Asian markets, such as Korea and China, continue to feed global demand for lithium as their populations increasingly consume electronics and electrified vehicles. In the case of China, government incentives exist to promote electric vehicle development, manufacturing and adoption (China offers a $9,000 incentive toward electric vehicle purchases).
China's government has also pledged to invest $15 billion toward the establishment of advanced vehicle technology and infrastructure by 2021.

Other countries are also preparing for expected lithium demand growth from emerging Asian nations. By way of example, Australia's Galaxy Resources Ltd. built a $102 million lithium carbonate plant in China to better serve its Asian customers.
Lithium Demand & Price
The expanding use of lithium in vehicles, electronics, ceramics and lubricants has made the annual global lithium market worth $1 billion. In particular, global use of lithium-ion batteries doubled from 2000 to 2011. Demand for the batteries has been growing at roughly 25% per annum (by comparison, overall lithium production has been growing at roughly 4-5% per annum).
In terms of vehicle applications, electric hybrids use roughly 2.9 pounds (1.3 kg) of lithium on average; plug-in hybrids use about 28.2 pounds (12.8 kg); and all-electric vehicles use about 42.3 pounds (19.2 kg).As the sales of portable electronics and electrified cars continue to increase, manufacturers such as Apple and Toyota have few alternatives to lithium-based batteries as they pursue greater performance and mobility. Given all that, it's not surprising the price of lithium has tripled since 2000.
Lithium Growth Forecast
The $1 billion a year lithium market continues to expand through increasing use of lithium in vehicles, electronics, ceramics and lubricants. In the words of a JPMorgan manager of ~$6.9 billion in natural resource assets, "You can't see any reason why that won't be a high growth market for many, many years.
" Meanwhile, Jonathan Lee, a battery materials and technologies analyst at Byron Capital, points to a very strong outlook for lithium in light of the uncertainty surrounding many of the industrial metals such as copper. And a Q1 2012 report from Market Research on the outlook for lithium ion batteries and alternative energy vehicles through 2020 concluded the lithium-ion market would bring huge increases in demand and profits in the billions of dollars.
Lithium Demand Forecast
With manufacturers such as Apple and Toyota having few alternatives to lithium-based batteries as they pursue greater performance and mobility, analysts from Dahlman Rose & Co. forecast lithium demand will double by 2020. Talison Lithium Ltd the world's leading lithium supplier, foresees demand doubling by 2022 on the strength of only minimal impact from electric vehicles, and as much as tripling if electric vehicles "take off in a big wayIn response, companies are already preparing for expected lithium demand growth, particularly from emerging Asian markets. Australia's Galaxy Resources Ltd. built a $102 million lithium carbonate plant in China to better serve its Asian customers.
Lithium Batteries Forecast
Lithium-ion battery use has shown a strong growth trend for over a decade. Rechargeable lithium batteries continue to gain market share from non lithium batteries in such applications as mobile phones, cordless tools, MP3 players, and portable electronics such as laptops and tablets. Demand doubled from 2000 to 2011, and has been growing at roughly 25% per annum. Since first coming onto the market in the 1990s, lithium-ion batteries grew into an $11 billion market by 2010. Today, analysts expect the lithium-ion battery market will reach $43 billion by 2020.
Lithium-Powered Vehicles Forecast
According to Market Research, while 90% of lithium-ion battery demand currently stems from consumer applications, diversified applications such as electrified vehicles are expected to provide new market growth drivers. By 2017, half the hybrid cars and all electric vehicles (EVs) will use lithium battery packs, according to Pike Research. The research firm also forecasts that by 2017 the number of vehicles with advanced batteries will triple while lithium vehicle battery packs will grow by more than 100 fold. Revenue from vehicle-based lithium batteries, meanwhile, is forecast to increase from the 2011 level of $2 billion to $14.6 billion in 2017 with the majority of growth stemming from EVs, which require significantly larger battery packs than hybrids.
Government policies, incentives and goals will contribute to the increased use of lithium-based batteries in vehicles. In the case of the US, the goal is to have 1 million electric vehicles on the road by 2015.5 In Germany the goal is to have 1 million plug-in EVs by 2020. The Asia Pacific region, meanwhile, is expected to lead the market on the strength of the established Japanese auto market combined with ongoing economic growth in China.
Lithium Technology Forecast
New technological advances continue to improve lithium batteries, further increasing their potential for performance and market gains. In June 2012, leading US-based battery maker A123 Systems announced it had developed an improved lithium-ion battery that can cut costs of EVs and hybrids while performing better than competing packs in extreme heat and cold. At the same time, ongoing experimental improvements include commercializing graphene material that is capable of significantly improving lithium-ion battery performance and power while reducing EV charge times to only a few hours and smart phone charge times to as little as 10 minutes.
Entirely new forms of batteries are also being researched and developed, such as IBM's lithium-air cells. The cells represent theoretical energy densities exceeding 1,000 times that of lithium-ion cells, and the potential of giving EVs a 500-mile range. IBM hopes to have a full-scale prototype ready by 2013.

Great American Energy Lithium Project - Big Smoky Valley
Great American Energy has an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Big Smoky Valley (BSV) lithium property.
The property represents 48 unpatented placer mining claims comprising ~7,680 acres (~3,108 hectares) in and around Esmeralda County,Nevada. The BSV property lies halfway between Reno and Las Vegas, and is adjacent to Clayton Valley's lithium deposit, which may exceed 700 million kg. The Clayton Valley brines have some of the highest lithium content of brines anywhere in the world. It is also adjacent to America's only producing lithium mine, Chemetall Foote's Silver Peak Mine in Clayton Valley. The Silver Peak Mine has been producing for 40+ years at a rate of ~5,000 lithium carbonate
equivalent (LCE) tonnes per year.
The lithium-bearing rhyolites (i.e., finegrained extrusive volcanic rock) contained in the surrounding playa floor are among the richest in the world according to US Geological Survey (USGS) information. In September 2009, the private geotechnical consulting firm Coast Mountain Geological Ltd (CMG) prepared a National Instrument 43- 101 compliant technical report on what is now the Company's BSV lithium property.
The CMG report found similar geology to that of the Silver Peak Mine in the adjoining Clayton Valley, and recommends a non-contingent multi-staged program be carried out to test the resource potential of the BSV property.
Great American Energy is currently developing an initial exploration plan. Lithium exploration work will include reconnaissance and grid sampling along with geophysics surveys designed to identify drilling targets and inform hydrogeological tests for the purpose of resource estimation.
Previous Exploration The Silver Peak Mine and the surrounding area, including the Big Smoky Valley, are located in what is geologically referred to as the Basin and Range Province, which extends from southern Oregon to Mexico. In the 1970s and 1980s, the USGS carried out a series of reconnaissance programs in the region, which included sampling and drilling programs conducted in several valleys including 2 holes in Big Smoky Valley. Both holes intersected geochemically anomalous concentrations of lithium in water and sediments while yielding lithium values averaging 160 ppm. One of those holes is located on the Company's BSV property.
A gravity survey was also completed through Clayton Valley and the saddle connecting Big Smoky Valley. Another more extensive gravity survey was subsequently conducted in Big Smoky Valley for the US military. The regional gravity surveys confirmed the existence of various structures that may have created topography favorable for compared to mining hard-rock ores. Nevada's Clayton Valley brines have some of the highest lithium content of brines anywhere in the world, and the valley's lithium deposit may exceed 700 million kg.
The state also represents close proximity to lithium battery and hybrid/electric vehicle manufacturers in California, including Flux Power, Inc. and Tesla Motors, among others in the US and Canada.
Why You Must Research SRBL Right Now!
With a market cap of less than $100 million, even the smallest penetration into the $1 billion lithium market (projected to be worth tens of billions within a decade) and a fractional penetration of the $10 billion REE market (projected to grow equally well by 2020) would be a boon for Great American Energy. And, it won't be a long wait - SRBL recently reported it would begin its exploration program at its rare earth site (Bear Creek) in March of 2013.
A lithium mine very near the Big Smoky site is capable of producing 5000 tonnes of lithium and lithium-equivalent material per year, and its geology is very similar to Big Smoky's. At a lower-thanaverage price of $5000 per ton, the other mine is selling roughly $25 million worth of lithium per year. Moreover that existing mine has been producing lithium at that pace for over 40 years.
If the geology of Big Smoky is anything like that existing mine, Big Smoky could be a multi-decade resource, and end up producing $1 billion or more worth of lithium. And make no mistake - lithium demand is only going to grow. Some say it could quadruple within the next ten years. At the same time, Great American Energy's Bear Creek rare earth element site holds equally compelling promise.
In all, the property could hold up to 1 billion tones of material containing rare earth elements. Its 500 meters underground, meaning it's expensive to dig up, and an exact potential revenue possibility is still unclear. But, with the option to buy up t o a 60% interest of the entire site, it too represents what could be a revenue opportunity that reaches into the hundreds of millions of dollars range.
And like lithium, the demand for rare earth metals is only going to grow as time moves on. The advantage newcomers to the investment opportunity have is the simple fact that it's so new, most traders are not aware of it yet;
I urge you to research SRBL, and be ready for Tuesday's action!
