The main objective of this TC is to advance geological knowledge of potential deposits of lithium, graphite and rare earth elements. The TC aims to gather fundamental geological information in order to (i) identify new graphite mineralizations, (ii ) facilitate date to create a favorability map for rare earth elements; (iii) support a layer of Brazil's lithium favorability map; and (iv) enhance governance and institutional frameworks that support geological mapping.
