Description
Lithium Americas is rapidly advancing its Thacker Pass lithium mine in Nevada, aiming to bolster the U.S. supply chain. With over 900 construction workers on site and plans to double that by year-end, the project is expected to complete by 2027. The mine is equipped with a Siemens turbine for power and is creating numerous jobs in Humboldt County. Financing the $3 billion project involves a mix of sources, including a DOE loan, GM investments, and private funds. Despite tariff hits, the project is on track, promising a century of domestic lithium supply.
