Where we work
Nasarawa: The Lithium Frontier
--------------------------
Our operations are centered in Nasarawa State. Nigeria's mineral-rich powerhouse, know for its abundant lithium pegmatite deposits. We operate multiple site across the region, strategically located near key towns and transport hubs like Abuja, just a few hours away. Nasarawa's deposit-yielding lithium oxide content between 7% and 11% rival the world's best, making it an ideal base for our work. Our flagship site near Keffi or Endo, tap into this wealth, producing raw materials for both local processing and global markets.
