The potential volume of lithium carbonate equivalent within the United States amounted to 94.8 million metric tons. By far, the state with the highest potential for LCE was Nevada, with more than 88 million metric tonnes. Arkansas comes in second place with more than four million metric tons of potential volume of lithium carbonate equivalent.
Potential volume of lithium carbonate equivalent in the United States, by state
(in million metric tonnes)
The measure of a lithium mine’s potential is the quantity that can be extracted from the source.
For each lithium resource, the potential volume of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) was calculated with a ratio of one metric ton of lithium producing 5.32 metric tons of LCE.
