According to the report of Bolivia National Radio (NRb) on June 17, the Bolivian government is currently evaluating six companies to exploit the undeveloped lithium resources in the country. Eventually, one or more companies may be selected to cooperate with Bolivia's state-owned lithium mining company (YLB). Alvaro arnez, Vice Minister of the Ministry of high energy technology of Bolivia, said that the government now plans to prepare proposals for consideration by the company by the end of October and reach a final agreement by the end of December, which is six months later than the initial schedule. After the disqualification of the US start-up energyx and the Argentine energy company tecpetrol this month, the Bolivian government's choice was narrowed from eight to six.
