Company Description
United Lithium Corp. (ULTHF) is an exploration and development company focused on lithium and other strategic metals within the Basic Materials sector. According to the company’s disclosures, United Lithium is “energized by the global demand for lithium” and targets lithium projects in politically safe jurisdictions with advanced infrastructure that allows for rapid and cost-effective exploration, development, and potential production opportunities.
The company’s shares trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol ULTH, on the OTCQX market in the United States under ULTHF, and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under a 0UL-series symbol. United Lithium positions itself as a Nordic- and Europe-focused explorer with projects in Sweden and Finland, and with additional exploration-stage interests referenced in company materials.
Core business focus
United Lithium describes its primary business as the exploration and development of lithium projects. The company is building a portfolio of hard rock lithium assets, particularly lithium-cesium-tantalum (LCT)-type pegmatites, in regions that already have transportation, power, and port infrastructure. This focus is intended to support the potential future supply of lithium for applications such as batteries and the broader energy transition, as reflected in repeated references to the electric vehicle and clean energy value chain in its news releases.
Bergby Lithium Project, Sweden
A central asset for United Lithium is the Bergby Lithium Project in central Sweden. Company disclosures describe Bergby as a 100%-owned, district-scale, hard rock lithium project covering approximately 7,897 to about 8,000 hectares near the coast of the Gulf of Bothnia, roughly 200 km north of Stockholm and close to the city of Gävle. The project benefits from nearby highway and road access, railway, power infrastructure, and port facilities at Norrsundet, with Gävle serving as a labour and supply hub.
Bergby hosts numerous LCT granitic pegmatites, five of which (Pegmatites A to E) have been drill-confirmed as spodumene-bearing. United Lithium reports a combined strike length of more than 4,000 m for these pegmatites. The company has also identified unexplained spodumene-bearing boulder trains and notes that much of the property remains unexplored, which it cites as evidence of further exploration potential.
Technical work at Bergby includes mineralogical test work on samples from Pegmatites B, C, D and E, conducted by SGS Canada Inc. The study examined chemical and mineralogical characteristics, including spodumene abundance, liberation, and associations with other minerals. According to the company, spodumene is the primary lithium mineral in these pegmatites, accounting for a large proportion of the contained lithium, with relatively low iron oxide content in spodumene and limited lithium hosted in micas. United Lithium states that these attributes are positive for lithium recoveries and operating costs and that the pegmatites are amenable to separation using conventional flotation methods.
Drilling at Bergby has returned multiple lithium oxide (Li2O) intersections across Pegmatites A to E. The company has disclosed assay intervals for Pegmatites D and E, including near-surface and deeper mineralization, and notes that all drilled pegmatites remain open along strike and at depth. United Lithium has also acquired the Axmarby property, located directly north of Bergby, where multiple pegmatite dykes have been observed and are interpreted by the company to be associated with the same structural trends.
National interest designation in Sweden
In a later update, United Lithium reported that Bergby received a national interest designation from the Geological Survey of Sweden (SGU). The company states that this designation recognizes Bergby as a mineral project of national interest, linked to its potential to provide a future supply of lithium to Sweden and other parts of Europe. Under Swedish law, this designation is described as protecting the area against measures that may hinder future mining extraction and is intended to support long-term planning for land use and resource management.
United Lithium emphasizes that Sweden has a long mining tradition and is one of the European Union’s leading ore and metal producing countries. The company presents the national interest designation as a milestone that aligns Bergby with Sweden’s and the EU’s focus on critical raw materials for the green energy transition.
Finnish lithium portfolio
United Lithium has assembled a large exploration footprint in Finland through a combination of projects and reservation areas. The company reports that its Finnish land package totals over 105,000 hectares across several properties, many of which are at the reservation stage, allowing mapping and sampling with the option to convert to exploration permits.
Key Finnish assets described by the company include:
- Kietyönmäki Project: A 900-hectare project within the Häme belt, hosting a dyke swarm of near-vertical spodumene- and petalite-bearing pegmatite dykes, including the Main Dyke. United Lithium reports that the Main Dyke has been drill-defined to be up to 25 m wide, more than 200 m in length, and confirmed to extend to at least 160 m depth. The company has disclosed several lithium oxide intersections from both its own drilling and historical work by previous operators and the Finnish Geological Survey.
- Kannus Reservation: Approximately 15,225 hectares in the Ostrobothnia region, located directly north of the Keliber lithium deposits within the Järvi-Pohjanmaa Lithium Metallogenic Belt. United Lithium notes that the area is underlain by Paleoproterozoic metasediments, black schists, and mafic volcanic rocks of the Western Finland schist belt, which also hosts most of the Keliber lithium deposits, and that no publicly reported LCT exploration has historically been completed on the Kannus area.
- Kova Reservation: A 54,400-hectare land package on the northern margin of the Pirkanmaa migmatite belt, immediately south of the Tampere Schist Belt and directly south of the Eräjärvi LCT-metallogenic area. United Lithium cites prior mapping by Pure Resources Limited, which identified numerous pegmatites, and describes the area as prospective for late-orogenic LCT-type complex pegmatites.
- Salkola Reservation: About 20,713 hectares located near Kietyönmäki. United Lithium initially acquired Salkola due to known lithium and tungsten pegmatites and structural similarities to Kietyönmäki. In a later update, the company states that, after reviewing exploration results, it elected to allow the Salkola reservation to expire rather than convert it into an exploration permit.
- Kast Reservation: Approximately 13,900 hectares in the Kemiö metallogenic area, adjacent to the Rosendal tantalum deposit. The company notes that the area hosts gneisses, schists, amphibolites, and various intrusive rocks, and is considered prospective for mixed or hybrid rare-element pegmatites with both LCT and NYF signatures.
United Lithium has described a 2024 exploration program in Finland involving systematic mapping and sampling across Kietyönmäki, Kannus, Kova, Kast, and Salkola, with a stated goal of identifying undiscovered LCT pegmatites and defining future drill targets.
Corporate and capital markets activity
United Lithium’s news releases describe several corporate and capital markets actions, including non-brokered private placements, warrant repricing and proposed warrant expiry extensions, and the use of marketing and investor relations services. The company has also reported on annual general meeting results, auditor appointments, and changes in senior management, such as the appointment of an interim chief executive officer.
In late 2025, United Lithium announced a binding Letter of Intent and later a definitive Share Exchange Agreement to acquire Swedish Minerals AB, an arm’s length Swedish corporation with uranium and rare earth exploration properties in Finland and Sweden. The company presents this proposed transaction as a way to create a diversified Nordic strategic metals platform by combining its lithium portfolio with Swedish Minerals’ uranium and rare earth assets. The transaction remains subject to due diligence, regulatory approvals, and other customary closing conditions, and the company cautions that there can be no assurance the transaction will be completed as contemplated or at all.
Strategic positioning
Across its disclosures, United Lithium consistently frames its strategy around building a portfolio of lithium and other strategic metal assets in the Nordic region and in jurisdictions it describes as politically safe with strong infrastructure. The company highlights proximity to European battery and electric vehicle supply chains, referencing facilities such as the Northvolt lithium battery gigafactory in Sweden and the Keliber lithium hydroxide plant under construction in Finland, as contextual factors for its exploration focus.
