  • Full of great perspective on his experiences in the Lithium market

    I’ve only recently began peaking an interest in the lithium space, honestly I didn’t about it so I have to admit I’m uneducated and I look forward to this podcast to gain knowledge and perspective in a space Joe knows so well. You don’t earn the name Mr. Lithium without knowing your stuff. Keep up the great work thank you for what you do Joe.

  • Joe has a point of view!

    Joe’s experience and contacts are ‘must listen’. While Joe did not get the price movement right last year, he did provide a lot of useful context for what was happening as the lithium price melted down. The best aspect of the podcast is his vast knowledge of all of the companies and especially how China operates. I have deep respect for his willingness to put himself out there on his podcast. Very grateful for Joe Lowry.

  • Liontown Resources

    With the DFS due any day now and the IPO of its non-lithium assets on Oct 15. It would be an interesting time to talk to Tony Ottaviano CEO (ex BHP) As the largest hard rock lithium resource on the planet that has no offtake agreements and with its Buldania resource @15MT still largely unexplored, this should be one of the most interesting interviews you could do at the moment considering the looming deficit.

Q: What are the top three or four elements of a great lithium project?
A great lithium brine project is defined by size and permeability, water access, manageable impurities, and robust infrastructure, with permitting and social license also playing pivotal roles; recovery and processing considerations must balance with the overall feasibility and potential to reach a PFS.
