Sawtooth Mining is the exclusive contract miner for the Thacker Pass lithium project in Northern Nevada. We bring decades of mining expertise to the project.
The Thacker Pass Lithium Project is the largest known lithium resource in North America. It is a sedimentary-clay deposit that will utilize similar mining techniques to many coal deposits. It will be mined as a shallow open pit, average depth of 300 feet, and will be actively reclaimed throughout the life of the project.
Our experience allows us to successfully perform in a safe and economical manner, closely aligning with our customer’s goals.
