Keliber project economics improve as it shifts to lithium hydroxide

The updated Keliber definitive feasibility study (DFS) to consider producing lithium hydroxide, rather than lithium carbonate, has improved all the key financial metrics of the Finnish project.

The summer of 2018 DFS was based on the production of battery-grade lithium carbonate; however, with demand in Europe moving to lithium hydroxide, Keliber Oy has adjusted its DFS.
