Lithium is at the heart of the global shift toward cleaner, more sustainable energy.
From electric vehicles to renewable energy storage, lithium products play a critical role in enabling the technologies that are transforming how we power our world.
At SQMi, we produce high-quality lithium hydroxide and spodumene concentrate—essential materials that support the growing demand for efficient, high-performance battery solutions.
What We Produce
Spodumene Concentrate
Spodumene concentrate is a vital raw material in the production of lithium compounds.
Lithium Hydroxide
Lithium hydroxide has long been recognised as a transformative substance.
Lithium products are the foundation of the clean-energy future—powering electric vehicles, renewable energy storage, and the technologies driving global decarbonisation.
SQMi completes first export of Australian-produced lithium hydroxide.
This milestone follows two years of successfully exporting spodumene and steadily building the operational experience, technical capability and organisational confidence required to move downstream into battery-grade chemicals. It represent …
