Lithium is used in glass, ceramics and batteries for electronic equipment and, increasingly, hybrid vehicles. It is the lightest of all metals and is highly reactive at room temperature.
Talison Lithium mines and processes lithium bearing mineral spodumene at Greenbushes near Perth, Western Australia. The company produces a range of lithium concentrates that are distributed to a well-established global customer base, including China.
In September 2010, Talison Lithium merged with Salares Lithium Inc which gave it exposure to prospective lithium brine projects in Chile.
