Introduction
Located in the heart of the lithium triangle South American Lithium owns 50,000+ hectares throughout the El Quemado mining district. The El Quemado project is within one of the finest spodumenic areas in all of Argentina where the potential for mineralization of lithium, columbite-tantalite and rare earth minerals is outstanding.
What Is Lithium?
Lithium is the lightest metal and least dense solid element. It’s high electrochemical potential makes it an extremely valuable component of high energy-density rechargeable batteries.
Lithium Mining
El Quemado has tenements covering 50,000 hectares in the South America region, prospective for lithium mineralization.

The El Quemado mining project is one of the largest lithium bearing land packages in all of Argentina
The El Quemado mining district is located on the eastern slopes of the Palermo and Cachi Mountains, at an altitude between 3,800 and 4,700 meters above sea level.
It lies Northwest of the town of Palermo Oeste and extends in a N-S belt between the towns of La Poma and Cachi (province of Salta, Argentina), covering an area of over 50,000 Ha.
El Quemado mining district is said to be the most important concentration of Tantalum and Niobium in Argentina. It contains a large number of pegmatitic bodies with large concentrations of niobium, tantalum, lithium and rare earths.

The Huaytiquina Project, owned and operated by SALi Lithium Corp, is strategically located in the Salar del Rincón basin, Salta, Argentina. Spanning 7,625 hectares, the project is positioned within the Altiplano-Puna high plateau, a region renowned for its significant lithium resources. With a prime location and access to nearby aquifer systems, the Huaytiquina Project offers exceptional potential for lithium brine extraction and exploration.
The Huaytiquina Project benefits from its proximity to two important aquifer systems: the Catua Aquifer System and the Volcanic Aquifer Complex. These water resources are essential for lithium brine extraction, a critical component of lithium production. SALi Lithium Corp’s access to these water sources ensures that the project is well-positioned to support future extraction activities, contributing to the region’s growing lithium industry.
