- Lithos Group Ltd. is a clean technology and mineral processing company that specializes in the development, licensing, and deployment of proprietary direct lithium extraction and brine pre-treatment technologies for the energy transition and critical minerals industries. Founded in 2010 and headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, the company maintains operations and advanced testing infrastructure across North America, including a research laboratory in Denver, Colorado, and a commercial fabrication and testing complex in Bessemer, Alabama. Lithos Group offers a comprehensive suite of mineral recovery and environmental engineering solutions, including AcQUA, a patented electro-pressure membrane pre-treatment technology engineered to selectively remove impurities such as magnesium, calcium, sulfate, and boron while concentrating lithium chloride without the use of freshwater or harsh chemicals; TiERRA, a specialized brine management and purification system; bespoke laboratory-scale assaying, analytical characterization, and metallurgical validation services; custom engineering, design, and modular deployment of direct lithium extraction pilot systems; and industrial produced water treatment solutions that purify spent oilfield and mining brines for subsurface reinjection or industrial recycling. In recent developments, the company executed a strategic transformation from traditional resource exploration to pure-play mineral extraction technology, transitioning its corporate name from Alchemist Mining Incorporated to Lithos Energy Ltd. and subsequently to LiTHOS Group Ltd. in January 2024. The company has since expanded its commercial validation pipeline through strategic testing collaborations with major global lithium producers, including SQM in the Salar de Atacama, secured key United States patent protection covering its electro-pressure membrane refining architecture, and operationalized its 55,000-square-foot facility in Alabama to accelerate commercial-scale testing and client deployment.
