Minister of Energy and Natural Resources “Development of our nation's rich lithium resources is paramount to the prosperity of Canadians for generations to come but requires innovation to unlock Canada's vast and dilute brines.
“Ontario’s abundant supply of critical minerals is one of our province’s greatest advantages. We’re so pleased to welcome Frontier Lithium’s interest in expanding its production of strategic battery minerals right here in Ontario, which will support our growing end-to-end critical minerals and electric vehicle battery supply chain.
Frontier Lithium’s multi-hundred-million-dollar PAK Lithium Project is the first fully integrated lithium development initiative in Canada. It supports the Government of Canada’s goal of developing Canadian end-to-end supply chains for critical minerals in the face of an increasingly uncertain world.
We look forward to collaborating with the government as we continue to progress our project.” The PAK Lithium Project is a joint venture between Frontier Lithium and Japan’s Mitsubishi, showcasing an opportunity for Canada to supply our allies with the critical minerals they are looking for.
