One integrated platform
for lithium extraction.

Securing reliable lithium supply to meet growing global demand.

One system. Three parts. 

"Summit

01 Multi-column system

Our proprietary column sequencing delivers ultra-low water use, high recovery, and high impurity rejection, in a modular system deployable to commercial scale. 

"Summit

02 High-performance sorbent

eLivate™ sorbent delivers the industry’s highest capacity and fastest kinetics with a projected 5 – 8 year service life. 

"Summit

03 Predictive modeling

A multi-physics modeling platform tunes denaLi™ to each brine’s unique chemistry, compressing design timelines, optimizing performance, and creating the foundation for supervisory machine learning. 

The denaLi advantage:

$1-2K

Reduction per tonne LCE

8X

Lower water intensity

95%+

Validated uptime

Our approach

Validated, secured, and ready.

We bring innovative technology and industrial scaling expertise to Direct Lithium Extraction.

  • Validated

    Independently tested by major mining partners across South America and North America. 

  • Secured

    Proprietary sorbent manufactured in the United States and key components globally sourced to protect supply-chain integrity for Western projects. 

  • Ready

    In-house demonstration plant generates commercial-grade design data in a fraction of the time and cost of a traditional field demo. 

See our approach

Advanced system design

Modular design scalable to any resource.

Standardized 5000 tpa denaLi modules can be deployed in parallel, enabling phased capacity build-out tuned to your resource and market timing. 

How we’re different

The clear leader in DLE.

Summit has solved the challenges of sorbent DLE and innovated well beyond competitors.
