Our 1,200-acre site in Kings Mountain, NC sits on one of the richest spodumene ore deposits in the world and is one of the most sophisticated sites for advanced lithium material development. The site’s Lithium Conversion Facility produces battery-grade lithium hydroxide, lithium bromide, lithium chloride, USP-grade lithium carbonate, high purity lithium carbonate, battery grade lithium metal products and lithium alloy powders. Our Global Technical Center has the capability to produce a wide range of new lithium-based materials for battery applications. In addition, lithium-based essential resources including amides, hydrides, and alkoxides are also produced. With the growing demand for lithium, Albemarle is pursuing a potential restart of production from the Kings Mountain mine to strengthen the U.S. supply of critical minerals.
