Estrategia Nacional del Litio: Con más de 80 manifestaciones de interés expresadas cierra el proceso de RFI
Tuesday, June 18, 2024.- Within the framework of the National Lithium Strategy, and after 60 days of an open and transparent call to express interest in developing projects for exploration and exploitation of lithium in Chile, this Monday, June 17, the period of reception of the initiatives on the digital platform enabled by the Ministry of Mining ended.
With more than 80 expressions of interest expressed, from more than 50 companies and consortia, from 10 countries, the background assessment stage will now begin to define the areas to be prioritized for the implementation of projects and what will be the mechanisms for the assignment of Special Contracts for Operation of Lithium, previously conducting Indigenous Consultation in case of susceptibility of affectation.
The National Lithium Strategy, promoted by President Gabriel Boric, is a long-term policy that involves a broad effort by the government to best fulfill the goal of increasing wealth for the country. The RFI process has involved a joint work with the Ministries of Economy, Finance, Foreign Affairs, Corfo and InvestChile to promote the process in a transparent manner, providing the most information to those interested in Chile and abroad. The number of stakeholders we receive, from Chile and abroad, are the best sign that this joint work has been successful, said the Minister of Mining, Aurora Williams.
The Secretary of State added that it is important to note that in parallel with the RFI process the teams of the Ministry of Mining are deployed on the ground to maintain a permanent dialogue with the communities on the progress of the strategy, in addition to carrying out two indigenous consultations: for the projects in Salar de Maricunga, of Codelco; and for the Salares Altoandinos project, of Enami. Corfo is also developing his indigenous consultation for the project in Salar de Atacama. All this is in addition to the work of the Ministry of Science for the creation of the Technological Institute for Public Research of Lithium and Sales, and the commitment of the Ministry of the Environment to begin studies for the creation of the Network of Protected Salaries.
