Welcome to our Economics toolbox !

This interactive tool is designed to give you a clear overview and foundational understanding of key preliminary economic parameters for critical minerals and rare earths mining and processing.

It is intended for companies exploring mining as a potential investment field and seeking additional data and context. The information presented on our interactive platform is sourced from leading industry experts, price‑reporting agencies, major mining companies, and the largest offtakers.

All data is compiled and aggregated by Lithium for America volunteers.

The platform is currently under development and is expected to be available by Summer 2026 with the launch of the Lithium Economics Tool. A complementary suite of critical minerals and rare earths economics tools is planned for release in the second half of 2026.
