This will make mining for the metal all the rage in 2023!
This high demand only makes sense because lithium is the main component in many types of batteries across countless industries. It's an energy-efficient power-storing medium, which led to a sizable increase in 2022's lithium stocks.
The company's upcoming projects include the Tomas III Project, which takes place in Argentina—specifically in Incahuasi Salar, Salta Province.
There's also the Formentera Project—Patagonia Lithium's flagship project in Paso Salar, Jujuy Province, northwest of Argentina.

Much like Gold Hydrogen, Tiger Tasman Minerals' main goal is coming up with eco-friendly approaches to safely mine and process minerals.
However, instead of extracting naturally occurring hydrogen, Tiger Tasman Minerals is all about base minerals, critical minerals, industrial minerals, and battery minerals.
For a more sustainable future and a smooth transition into worldwide clean energy, the company has special projects to dig up gold, copper, silver, manganese, lithium, nickel, and more.
Its projects currently take place in Ashburton, Paterson Province, Earaheedy Basin, and the Townsville region, just to name a few.
The way that this company goes about achieving all these goals is by using the help of advanced technology and A.I. assistance.

Another promising Aussie IPO in 2023 in the field of mining and mineral exploration is High-Tech Metals Ltd.
Just a while ago, Global Energy Metals Corp., which is an established Canadian company, signed asset purchase and sale agreements with High-Tech Metals.
GEMC currently has a 70% interest in High-Tech Metals, with the other 30% belonging to Marquee Resources Ltd.
The main focus of this agreement is the advanced exploration of the Werner Lake region for copper, cobalt, and gold. The managing director of High-Tech Metals had a lot to say about this, as he stated:
"The world needs more high-quality cobalt mines, and High-Tech is committed to beginning work to realize the potential of Werner in a sustainable and responsible manner to ensure strong outcomes for all stakeholders. High-Tech is currently on the path to IPO with Werner as our first project focused on E.V. metals in tier-1 jurisdictions, with the aim to list by the end of 2022."
● Listing date: Yet to be added
● Focus: High-purity quartz feedstock (developing, mining, physical processing, and marketing)
● Issue price: AUD 0.20
● Issue type: Ordinary Fully Paid Shares
● Security code: GTM
● Raise: $7,000,000
Investors who are looking forward to trying their luck in the quartz mining and processing industry are in for a surprise in 2023. That's because the Australian company Greentech Minerals Ltd. is ready to go public sometime in early 2023.
There's no doubt that high-purity quartz will be in rising demand in the upcoming years. Being a crucial part of various hi-tech industry sectors like solar panel manufacturing, mining for quartz is the future.
What's even more encouraging is the exploration done by Greentech Minerals near Mount Isa in northwest Queensland. It showed considerable amounts of HPQ deposits after some bulk sampling and trial mining.
Besides quartz, the company has its sights set on other minerals such as cobalt, copper, phosphate, gold, and vanadium.
All these minerals are essential components of the global shift to greener energy. Therefore, it only makes sense that investing in mining and processing them will yield rewarding results for investors.
● Focus: Mining for rare-earth deposits and critical minerals
● Issue price: AUD 1.35
● Issue type: Ordinary Fully Paid Shares
● Security code: VHM
● Raise: $30,000,000
Last but not least, VHM Ltd. is another Aussie mining company that's ready to go public in early 2023. The company's positive move is backed by its vision for a brighter and greener future.
Currently working on two projects that revolve around mining and processing rare-earth minerals, VHM Ltd. is anticipated by many interested investors in the U.S. government.
Its flagship project—the Goschen Project—takes place in the premier mineral sands province in Northwest Victoria. So far, exploration as part of this project has yielded 413,107 tons of total rare earth oxide (TREO).
It's worth noting that this project, as well as the company's other one—AREM—has the support of local, state, and governmental bodies. What proves this point is the exceptionally skilled workforce involved, the bulletproof infrastructure, and other solid features.
These days, the Goschen Project is in the front-end engineering and design (FEED) stage, which will shift into detailed engineering of the mining plans afterwards. The next step is the construction of the mine, then the mining and processing of the materials.
Company experts estimate that this project will come up with an excess of 20 years of mine life!
Final Words
People and companies interested in the Australian stock market will be thrilled about these ten Aussie IPOs coming in 2023.
Most of the companies listed above—Gold Hydrogen Ltd., South-East Queensland Exploration Ltd., and more—specialize in mining and processing different sorts of minerals.
It only makes sense that most IPOs have this focus in Australia, as the continent is rich in metals essential in clean-energy industries.
