Research indicates Queensland, NSW and Victoria have untapped lithium deposits across Australian soil, providing crucial insights
Lead author Dr Wartini Ng, a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Soil Security from thesaid: “Our research not only opens up new possibilities for Australia’s lithium industry but could also advance our path towards a low-carbon economy, a critical step in curbing greenhouse gas emissions.”

Aqua-regia-soluble Li concentrations are categorised in five quantile classes. Regions discussed in the text are highlighted in various shades of green.
Senior study author Professor Budiman Minasny, one of the leading international scientists in soil mapping and modelling, said that the findings could have significant implications for the lithium industry in Australia. “We’ve developed the first map of lithium in Australian soils which identifies areas with elevated concentrations,” Professor Minasny said. “The map agrees with existing mines and highlights areas that can be potential future lithium sources.”
