Kenticha Mining (KMPLC) is poised to become the first producer of lithium in East Africa, with production scheduled to commence within the next three months. The company has already invested Birr 80 billion in the project, which is anticipated to generate 1,000 job opportunities.
Lithium is a metal with increasing demand on the global market mainly for its application in lithium ion batteries for electric vehicles. Ethiopia has potential for lithium resources related to pegmatites and to rift-bound brine deposits.
No economic extraction of lithium exists in Ethiopia at the moment; the pegmatite deposit is only mined for niobite/tantalite. This research work excludes the pegmatite-related lithium resources of Ethiopia, and it only focuses on brines and related deposits.
KMPLC has already entered into an agreement with a Saudi Arabian company to supply lithium products, and discussions are underway with other potential buyers. Beyond lithium production, KMPLC also intends to mine tantalum from the Kenticha area.
The Kenticha Project has the potential to be a world-class battery metals project. Ethiopia is the ideal mining destination for companies looking to invest in a high-potential mining jurisdiction. The mining sector in Ethiopia has undertaken major reforms in recent years.
