Argentina is one of the most abundant brine lithium resources countries in the world, lithium resources are mainly distributed in the Puna plateau, Northwest Argentina. In Argentina, the brine magne- sium-lithium ratio is low, and associated potassium, boron and other salt resources can be utilized in the form of by-products. The conditions of mining is excellent in this area. Due to insufficient investment, the development of lithium in Argentina is limited to a few of salt lakes, lots of them with a low degree of ex- ploration and exploitation. This paper summarizes Argentine' s lithium resources, and introduces present situation of Argentine' s lithium ore explotation. It' s significant for Chinese enterprises to take part in Ar- gentina' s lithium resources development and utilization. |
