Albemarle Corporation

Yesterday Albemarle Corporation had the pleasure of co-hosting an event in the European Parliament with MEP Verena Mertens and Rasmussen Global, to discuss the role of Chilean #lithium in the EU security of supply. It was a great occasion to explain the activities of Albermarle in the Salar de Atacama, how we extract and refine lithium in Chile, our sustainability track record, and the relations with indigenous communities. Close cooperation with like-minded countries such as Chile will be fundamental for the development of a secure, resilient and sustainable battery value chain. I would like to thank all participants for the interesting discussion we had, and in particular MEP Verena Mertens and Rasmussen Global for the great collaboration in organizing this event!

To help bolster the future of engineering in South Arkansas—home to our Magnolia operations—we recently gave $20,000 to the Southern Arkansas University (SAU) Albemarle-Endowed Professorship of Engineering. ??? Albemarle has a longstanding relationship with SAU. Over the past 25 years, we've provided funds to support instruction, research, mentorship and equipment for students and faculty. We also proudly offer scholarships, internships, full-time positions and plant tours to members of the university community. ??

You may be familiar with the use of lithium within batteries, or even for pharmaceuticals—but did you know this critical mineral plays a key role in powering grid storage, a key asset for enabling the future of AI and connectivity? Our lithium supports energy storage systems that build grid resiliency by storing generated power to use when electricity demands are their highest. ?

As a proud member of the United Nations CEO Water Mandate and Water Resilience Coalition, we recognize World Water Day tomorrow, March 22 and are committed to continuous efficiency improvements of our water resources across our operations. ?? Albemarle is on track to achieve our goal of reducing freshwater usage intensity by 25% by 2030 at our operations in Chile and Jordan. Notably, our Chile sites have met this target ahead of schedule due to optimizing a thermal evaporator at our La Negra facility.

Albemarle Chairman and CEO Kent Masters headlined the Arkansas Economic Development Foundation (AEDF)?luncheon in Little Rock earlier this week, where more than 650 elected officials and industry leaders came together to celebrate the state’s advancements in economic development and hear more about its future in minerals. In his remarks, Masters discussed Albemarle's 55+ year history in the Arkansas Smackover region and how the company is well positioned for a future with both bromine and lithium in Magnolia. ??

Happy birthday, Albert Einstein ?? We celebrate Einstein's curiosity—one of our core values—and immeasurable contributions to science today. The German-born theoretical physicist, best known for developing the theory of relativity, helped us understand the universe in a completely new way. And as our teammates know, we even named our employee portal, "Albert," after him! #Science #Einstein #Curiosity

We believe in the power of establishing deep roots in the communities where we operate. At some of our facilities, multiple members of the same families—spouses, siblings, parents and their children—have worked for Albemarle, like the McDaniel family at our site in Kings Mountain, North Carolina. ??
