A rough translation of the story text follows: Amid intense lobbying by lithium producers to enter the Chilean market, Mining Minister Marcela Hernando, who yesterday received Lithium Power International (LPI) and Tianqi Lithium Energy Australia, announced the state's overriding position on future projects. She defended the State's participation in mineral lithium exploitation. “We are ready to listen,” officials stressed, to proposals from national and foreign investors, which take place in a public-private partnership model with the majority participation by the State and which leaves installed capacity in all the determinants of the production chain”.
She added that the Government "is aware of the Strategic Importance of Lithium in Chile and Technological Developments to Combat the Global Climate Crisis". She also explained that "we must promote foreign investment, bearing in mind the sovereignty of the State over this natural wealth, so that they are our partners. In this context, we (ie the State) have comparative advantages, competitiveness, and above all constitutional legality... we are the owners of lithium.
After the meeting, Cristóbal García Huidobro, CEO of LPI & General Manager of Minera Salar Blanco reaffirmed that MSB still maintains a difference with Codelco over the exploitation of the Salar de Maricunga and further commented that the minister was "very clear plus committed to the development of the industry of lithium while willing to give the certainties that are essential for foreign investment”. "We are leaving calm, looking at the development of our project with optimism not only for us but for the country," he added.
For his part, Russell Barwick, director of Lithium Power International and Chairman of MSB, stressed that "mining implies long-term projects and, therefore, trust in the institutional framework, legal certainty and, in particular, respect for a country's international treaties. These are key aspects in investment decisions. As an Australian company we believe that Chile brings together all these elements and the authorities have conveyed that confidence to us."
On Tianqi's side, the meeting with Minister Hernando was attended by CEO Tianqi Lithium Energy Australia, Raj Surendran, accompanied by José Hofer, LIB Supply Chain specialist, and executive Paul De Nardi.
