Allkem merger raises stakes in battle for WA lithium assets

Allkem shareholders will receive one share in the new company for each Allkem share held.It will have capacity to churn out 248,000 tonnes a year of lithium carbonate equivalent.

Established lithium producers and hopefuls are also beating a path to Canada, but Mr Graves sees little chance of it emerging as a major rival to WA in lithium spodumene production. Mr Graves likened shipping lithium concentrate from WA to China to selling into a “big hole” where there was not a lot of differentiation. “There’s not a lot of real partnering, and you’re not really capturing a lot of value,” he said.

Allkem’s Mt Cattlin mine will be the merged entity’s only asset in WA, but Mr Graves signalled it would grow that footprint. It will also have capacity to produce and process all range of lithium materials across assets in Argentina, Canada, the US, Australia, Japan, China and the UK.
