Chilean state mining company Enami announced today that there is significant interest from potential partners for the lithium extraction project, after releasing the first results from the $10.5 million drilling campaign. The company highlights that according to the research, samples of saline water at the Agilar deposit showed an average lithium concentration of 740 milligrams per liter, as reported by Bloomberg.

Enami expects that these results will help find partners for financing, development, and management of the project, and interested companies have until Friday to submit their applications. The complete news content is available to Tanjug services users.
