In this episode, we chat with Nikolaos Cacos, president, director, and CEO of Argentina Lithium & Energy Corp who is focused on acquiring high-quality lithium projects in Argentina and advancing them towards production in order to meet the growing global demand for the battery sector. 
Nikolas has a wealth of experience in executive-level management and advisory expertise in the mineral exploration industry and serves as an officer and director of a number of TSX Venture Exchange listed companies. We talk about Argentina Lithium and what they have been up to.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Despite being the 8th largest country in the world, until 1992, there was virtually no mining in Argentina.
When the government decided to let outside investors develop mines, Nikolaos was one of the earliest people to get involved in exploring and opening mines.
 The Grasso Group of which Argentina Lithium is a member has made 4 world-class discoveries along with many others.
Argentina Lithium has acquired 4 high-class lithium deposits and has recently added Rincon West, which sits next to two other projects that are already producing Lithium. 
Direct Lithium extraction technology is making it far easier to extract Lithium and do so even for low-grade lakes.
In Argentina, mining is controlled at a province level, so there are a few differences between provinces. But there is staunch support for mining everywhere.
Even 30 years ago, before ESG requirements, the Grasso Group has always involved the local community.

BEST MOMENTS
‘We started a couple of years ago, acquiring high-quality projects, as the price of lithium was beginning to firm up, ´
‘We have a very long history there…we understand how to work effectively there (in Argentina).’
‘We made a significant contribution to help them devise and put together mining regulations and mining laws.’
