Apologies for the recent inactivity but there have been some updates to the LiFT website news page, including a recent interview with @kmgoodenough by @InnoNewsNetwork on all things lithium! lithiumfuture.org/news.html
New report out on 'Global material flows of lithium for the lithium-ion and lithium iron phosphate battery markets' by @EPetavratzi and @PJossoBGS. Download here: nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/5313…
BGS is currently leading a £2.5m @NERCscience funded project - @Li4FutureTech - designed to increase our understanding of global lithium resources supporting a low carbon future. Read about the project here: bgs.ac.uk/news/bgs-to-le… #CleanEnergy #COP26 #TogetherForOurPlanet
It's #cleanenergy day at #COP26 today. We know that lithium that is crucial to a battery powered future: could Cornwall's mining industry be the key to meeting increase demand, sustainably? orlo.uk/FPnab
If you're interested in doing some experimental Li and Li isotope geochemistry, then you might like this postdoc position at @GeosciencesEd part of @NERCscience funded @Li4FutureTech project. Deadline 13th October. jobs.ac.uk/job/CJD504/pos…
Out today! A new report on Li resources & Li supply chains in Africa by @kmgoodenough @Geo_Eimear & @Rashaw_Rocks. Link to report can be found here: lithiumfuture.org/news.html & here: nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/5306…
Excellent @goldschmidt2021 session this morning on critical raw materials for the energy transition, especially on #lithium. Lots for researchers to do in understanding mineralogy, alteration & fluid sources in lithium resources. We're working on it through @Li4FutureTech!
New map showing location of lithium mines, deposits and occurrences is now available on the @Li4FutureTech website: lithiumfuture.org/map.html
New comment article in Nature Reviews Materials on 'Mining our Green Future' by @Li4FutureTech Co-I Richard Herrington (@RJHNHM). Full article can be found here: nature.com/articles/s4157….
Earlier this month I had the opportunity to discuss #lifecycleassessment for #mining, #refining, and #recycling projects with the great @YouTube channel @justhaveathink youtu.be/6T7R1lIBMfA

Life Cycle Assessment. Optimising raw materials for renewables
Graduate research assistant position is now available @CambSchMines @UniofExeter working on #Lithium life cycle assessment (LCA) as part of the LiFT project. Full details are here: jobs.exeter.ac.uk/hrpr_webrecrui…
Friday update. Phase map of a spherical aggregate of Mg carbonate lamellae produced in BGS hydrothermal lab. X-ray data collected from rough surface using FEI Quanta 600, HV, 20kV, 10mmWD. Blue - 2 types of Mg carbonates, yellow & green - contribution from Na+Cl (exp.by-product)
A bit of exciting news! LiFT now has a brand new webpage lithiumfuture.org. Here you can find out a little more about the project team and stay up to date with project news and publications.
Another PDRA position is available on the LiFT project. This one is based @NHM_London and will be focused on the mineralogy of lithium mineralisation in volcano-sedimentary environments. Application deadline is April 6th! Full details here: careers.nhm.ac.uk/templates/CIPH…
The LiFT project has appointed its 1st PDRA! Marie Lefebvre-Desanois will be based @unisouthampton working on the analysis of Li & B isotopes. Marie studied @Univ_Lorraine before completing her PhD @GFZ_Potsdam on the Hämmerlein polymetallic skarn deposit, western Erzgebirge.
Probably the most exiting PDRA job I've seen in the last decade. Come and work with the #BGS. @BritGeoSurvey #LiFT @Li4FutureTech earthworks-jobs.com/water/bgs21021…
Fluid-flow & transport in salar systems is a key part of the geological Li-cycle that will be investigated as part of the @NERCscience funded LiFT project. A new 2-year PDRA position in groundwater modelling is now available @BritGeoSurvey. Details here: bgs.ac.uk/about-bgs/work…
More salar info. from @AB_Groundwater: Different salar surface textures in the Li-Triangle of the Andes in S. America. The salars contain valuable amounts of Li, concentrated by evaporation. The different textures indicate maturity of the surfaces & control the evaporation rates.
New cut-off for highlight topic ideas announced - this is a fantastic way to contribute to steering @NERCscience research and has supported our @Li4FutureTech project.
What are the timely issues in your field? We want your ideas for potential highlight topics for strategic NERC funding. Find out more: orlo.uk/5XFmw Submit your ideas by 4 May.
A nice Salar factoid from @AB_Groundwater: Uyuni Salt Flat (Salar) in Bolivia is the largest salt pan in the world. It covers an area of c. 10,000 km2. That’s about 1.5 million soccer pitches. We're studying how Li is naturally concentrated & stored there. @UKRI_News @NERCscience
Just over one month to apply for our Lithium for Future Technology PDRA position in lithium geomicrobiology. Applications due 1st March jobs.exeter.ac.uk/hrpr_webrecrui… @Li4FutureTech @UniofExeterESI @CambSchMines
