TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: LiSA (Lithium Sensing with Advanced Polymer Systems)

The Los Alamos National Laboratory is offering a technology licensing opportunity for LiSA, a field-deployable, polymer-based sensing platform that enables rapid, in situ detection of lithium in geothermal brines and clay-rich formations. This technology has the potential to accelerate resource validation, reduce exploration risk, and lower costs for companies involved in lithium mining and mineral exploration, geothermal energy development, and direct lithium extraction. The key advantages of LiSA include its field-deployable and portable design, in situ measurement capabilities, faster decision-making, lower exploration costs, and adaptability to harsh environments. * Field-deployable and portable design * In situ measurement capabilities * Faster decision-making * Lower exploration costs * Adaptability to harsh environments * Potential extension to other critical minerals
