About Lithium in South America 2026
Lithium is one of the essential elements in the transition to a cleaner energy matrix and in the electrification of transport. What is lithium used for? This resource has multiple uses, but its main destination is the manufacture of batteries, where it works as a key component.
In the future, demand for this metal is expected to continue to grow, especially as countries deepen the reduction of their carbon emissions. This effort leads mining companies, automakers, technology companies, and governments to collaborate with each other to ensure sustainable and efficient supply chains, which is also one of the main drivers of demand.
In the so-called “Lithium Triangle,” one of the most prosperous regions for the development of this resource, Argentina (4th) and Chile (2nd) are the main regional players, while Australia (1st) and China (3rd) are other important global players.
To analyze all these trends, the “International Seminar: Lithium in South America,” organized by the specialized media Panorama Minero, with annual traveling headquarters in the three most prosperous provinces of Argentina, convenes the main players in this sector, among which stand out: renowned international speakers, investors, supplier and technology companies, development companies and government agents, academic entities, and local representatives.
As an attraction, it offers first-line conferences on current lithium and the most advanced projects, the market situation, the political-economic scenario, and topics related to sustainability, new technologies, and electromobility.
Additionally, it promotes diverse commercial and business opportunities and connects the central actors of the industry for two days.
