Allens has advised Liontown on its strategic entry into the Centenario lithium brine project in Argentina.
The transaction includes a staged farm-in arrangement and associated shareholders’ agreement terms. It provides Liontown with a pathway to acquire up to 100% of the Centenario project and a strategic platform to build capability in lithium brine, one of the world’s major sources of lithium supply.
Allens has a longstanding relationship with Liontown, having acted for the company over many years on its Kathleen Valley Project and associated strategic matters.
‘It has been great working with the Liontown team again on this important transaction, which broadens its exposure to a second major source of global lithium supply and creates a platform for future growth,’ said partner Alexander Ninkov.
The matter showcases Allens’ market-leading critical minerals capability and its ability to bring together corporate, resources and capital markets expertise on complex cross-border transactions.
