Welcome to the European Lithium Institute eLi
eLi gathers partners along the whole lithium value chain to generate focused international cooperation. By pooling expertise in the fields of exploration, mining, processing, manufacturing and recycling plus predictive modelling – as shown in the illustration below – the institute offers comprehensive advice to use lithium in a sustainable, responsible and economically sensible way.
Take part of it and become stake- and/or shareholder for a better way of resource management!
