In the United States there are not many places to mine Lithium, a much needed element found in Li-ion batteries. Therefore the United States DOES NOT have a domestic nor sustainable supply chain. These 3 Lithium corporations will be able to produce 100 tons/year.
1) Piedmont Lithium
Charlotte, North Carolina
Tucked away in North Carolina, Piedmont Lithium quietly received a 5 year contract with TESLA to supply lithium in late 2022/2023. The agreement can be extended an additional 5 years. With Piedmont's mission to be a strategic domestic supplier of battery-grade lithium to the growing electric vehicles and battery shortage markets in the United States, Piedmont is positioned for success. It is also ideally located in the USA's Auto Alley.
Piedmont Lithium will produce 22,000 tons annually.

3) Standard Lithium
El Dorado, Arkansas
Labeled as Lithium City, USA - El Dorado - the Golden, Arkansas is already producing on what many analysts are now calling "white gold" or the new "gold rush". Being one of the few companies in the United States that actually has product, puts them at an advantage in the race for lithium. Potential partnerships could be just months, weeks or even days away.
Standard Lithium will produce 21,000 tons annually.

Editor-in-Chief Statement
