The Thesis

The world needs lithium supply

There is no lack of lithium in the world. The lithium mining sector is growing fast, but what lithium investors lack, is an intelligence layer.

But lithium projects are hard to understand

Which makes lithium investment high risk

The Real constraint  

The problem isn't capital.
It's intelligence.

Puna makes lithium projects understandable.

Hombre Muerto — a producing brine project operated by Rio Tinto Lithium. New small-scale operator coming online in 2026. "The grade hits at HMW differentiate it from every other Catamarca development we are tracking." — JP Vargas de la Vega, MD, Galan Lithium · Q3 corporate update · 05 May 2026

Cauchari-Olaroz — a producing brine project operated by Lithium Argentina Corp (LAAC). Cauchari-Olaroz is now the largest producing lithium brine operation in Argentina and is filing to nearly double nameplate capacity to ~79 ktpa combined. The RIGI application is among the first for a brownfield brine expansion and, if approved, locks in a 3% royalty cap and tax stability for Stage 2 capex — setting a precedent that Jujuy peers (Allkem/Livent successor assets, Ganfeng at Mariana) will benchmark against. Sub-$6k/t cash costs at current scale already place the asset in the global first-quartile; if sustained through Stage 2 ramp, it compresses the cost curve further and pressures higher-cost Puna projects seeking financing.
What's not being said
  • Ganfeng (66.5% JV partner) has not separately confirmed Stage 2 capex budget or timeline — funding split remains undisclosed
  • RIGI approval cadence for brine projects is untested; provincial vs. federal alignment on Jujuy lithium royalties could delay the process
