These 4 lithium shares began 2023 with a big bang!
Nick Sundich, January 11, 2023
2023 has begun with a bang for several lithium shares. Essential Metals (ASX:ESS) kicked off the action amongst lithium shares, unveiling a $136m takeover bid on Monday. And there has been more news from the sector over the past couple of days, especially among explorers that have given shareholders some indication that all their hard exploration work is paying off.

There’s nothing like a project with a US$1.5bn NPV
Among all lithium shares, the biggest news came from European Lithium (ASX:EUR) this morning. This company is expecting to unveil a DFS for its Wolfsberg project in Austria, during the first quarter of 2023. In advance of the release, the company unveiled the Net Present Value (NPV), which was US$1.5bn, based on the Measured and Indicated resource of 9.7mt at 1% lithium from the 2018 Pre-feasibility Study (PFS). The stock was up more than 4% on the back of this news.
Lake Resources is expanding its resource base
Another company that’s trying to pin down just how much of a resource it has is Lake Resources (ASX:LKE). This company, which has the Kachi lithium brine project in Argentina, doubled its Measured and Indicated resource to 2.2Mt of lithium carbonate. In addition to this is a further 3.1Mt in Indicated resources.
I love the smell of good drilling results in the morning
Also this morning, Aruma Resources (ASX:AAJ) unveiled drilling results at its Mt Deans project in Western Australia. Results included grades of up to 1.94% lithium with an average of 0.84%.
Excited shareholders sent Aruma’s share price up by over 45% this morning. This illustrates that there’s nothing like exploration results to get investors in lithium shares excited!
