The collaborative project, ‘Toward domestic lithium independence: Tectonic controls on critical emerging lithium deposits’, will run for 15 months.<\/p>\n
The project was selected for funding under the Seed Projects for Research, INnovation, and Technology (SPRINT) Program sponsored by SwRI and UTD.<\/p>\n
The grant will provide $125,000 with a $50,000 cap on UT Dallas costs and a $75,000 cap on SwRI costs.<\/p>\n
Lithium is a vital component in rechargeable batteries, which power everything from smartphones to electric vehicles (EVs).<\/p>\n
