Frontier Lithium Inc. is a pre-production business focused on becoming North America’s supplier of battery-grade lithium products for electric vehicles (EV) and energy storage systems. Located in Ontario’s Great Lakes region, the company manages the largest land position in an emerging premium lithium mineral district. With substantial mineral reserves totaling 22 million tonnes at 1.55% Li2O grade, Frontier Lithium is strategically positioned to meet the growing demand for lithium in North American markets.
Battery Technology
Frontier Lithium specializes in producing spodumene concentrates and battery-grade lithium hydroxide essential for EV battery manufacturing. Their processing capabilities center on converting high-grade spodumene into premium lithium materials through an integrated production system. The company’s PAK deposit yields exceptional quality spodumene with grades averaging 2.02% Li2O in measured and indicated resources, while the Spark deposit contains 18.8 million tonnes of indicated resources at 1.52% Li2O.
Their technical approach involves a multi-phase development strategy, starting with spodumene concentrate production and progressing to advanced chemical processing for battery-grade lithium hydroxide. This integrated method ensures strict quality control throughout the production chain, meeting the exacting standards required by EV manufacturers. The company’s processing techniques minimize environmental impact while maintaining high extraction efficiency, supporting the transition to sustainable transportation solutions.
