Covalent Lithium Pty Ltd

Covalent Lithium Pty Ltd (Covalent) is the manager appointed by a joint venture between subsidiaries of Sociedad Química y Minera de Chile S.A. (SQM) and Wesfarmers Limited to develop and operate the Mount Holland Lithium Project, which will be a unique, fully integrated producer of battery quality lithium hydroxide in Western Australia. Wesfarmers Limited will leverage the expertise and chemical processing capabilities within Wesfarmers Chemicals, Energy and Fertilisers (WesCEF), part of the Industrials Division, to support the Project. The Mount Holland Lithium Project, when constructed, will include a mine and concentrator at Mount Holland, located south of Southern Cross, and a refinery in Kwinana capable of producing approximately 45,000 tonnes per year of lithium hydroxide. This means we will have complete control over the end-to-end value chain of producing battery quality lithium hydroxide. However, we are much more than a mining company extracting a valuable resource: we add significant value by processing it and refining it into a finished product. What really motivates us is knowing that we are playing a part in enabling a clean energy future. A reduced dependence on fossil fuels worldwide is essential to achieving a more sustainable future. Our ability to store and use energy from renewable sources when we need it is crucial to making this vision a reality. As the global demand for cleaner, battery-based energy storage systems and electric vehicles is on the rise, so too is the demand for the battery quality lithium hydroxide we will produce. We are excited to be a part of this. In fact, in full production, Covalent will produce enough lithium hydroxide to enable approximately one million electric vehicles to replace regular vehicles on the road each year.
