Trends in Supply of Lithium Resources and Demand of the Resources for Automobiles, Apr 2011
Regions and State of Production on the Resources Lithium resources are roughly divided into two categories: lithium resources from salt lakes (and other brine waters) and mines. As previously discussed, lithium is not a rare element. However, lithium resources that can be acquired efficiently and profitably are concentrated in some continental regions. Chile has the worlds largest reserves of brinesource lithium, followed by Bolivia and Argentina; these three countries are considered to have about 80% of the worlds reserves. The United States has the largest reserves of mine-source lithium, about 50% of the worlds reserves, followed by Congo and Russia.[7] However, these are estimated reserves, and different organizations have very different estimates. Additionally, these estimates will be continuously updated. Figure 3 illustrates the worlds reserves of metallic lithium raw materials based on the Mineral Commodity Summaries (MCS) issued in January 2010 Bolivia (which is next to Chile) and it likely has one of the worlds largest reserves. There are claims that this lake, Uyuni salt lake, has 50% of the worlds lithium reserves, and the quality has been investigated. The amount of Bolivias reserves is not clear at this point and is not calculated into the worlds reserves. However, it is apparent that lithium resources will be more concentrated in South America.
Japan has a strong interest in strategic resources for the coming non-fossil Economy

STRATEGY: To create a win-win environment to collaborate between academics and government to develop an electric vehicle ECO-SYSTEM: Lithium- Li-ion battery- GEV TARGET: To find and select the best cooperation instrument to provide financing and facilities to create a concrete cooperation activity (project) until end 2011 TASK FORCE: Create a TASK FORCE GROUP (TFG) in order to align task effort with agreed goals. TFG should be created between Japan Agencies representatives (under Japan embassy leadership) , Chilean goverment (Under Chilean foreing Affairs) , Chilean private and academic groups (Under CIL project) . NEXT STEPS: Three weeks investigation between Japan and Chile GoverNments to explore alternatives of collaboration feasible instruments . Proposed next meeting: August 12th.
