Pilbara Minerals is a leading Australian lithium-tantalum producer which is strongly positioned to capitalise on the resurgence in the lithium raw materials market. Thanks to some astute corporate and strategic moves over the past 12 months – notably its well-timed recent US$175 million acquisition of the adjoining Altura Lithium Operations – Pilbara Minerals has secured its position as the world’s largest independent hard rock lithium operation.
