| TRU Group Inc has probably the most qualified lithium team in the world - a strong capability in all aspects of lithium technology and industry - lithium brine, spodumene ore, lithium clay mining, compound & metal extraction, manufacturing, engineering and refining and has also worked extensively in the applications for lithium including in Li-ion, cells, batteries, compounds, ceramics, lithium quartz crystals, metal and lithium alloys. We are expert in the production and refining of lithium intermediates such as brines, lithium carbonate, lithium hydroxide, lithium chloride, butyl-lithium, lithium metal, lithium alloys and compounds. We know, have visited and have assessed most of the lithium facilities in the USA, Chile, China, Argentina, Bolivia, Australia, Canada, Russia and Zimbabwe etc. |
