Initial search for lithium-rich brines in sedimentary basins of the Norwegian Barents Sea shelf integrating geology, geophysics and seabed geochemistry

Lithium (Li) can be extracted in closed system facilities from brines pumped to the surface through wells and returned thereafter. These rapidly developing technologies for direct Li extraction are suitable for offshore application and promise low environmental impact. This study investigated the potential for Li-rich brine systems in sedimentary basins combining interpretation of geological, geophysical […]
