Pilbara Minerals will acquire Latin Resources, which is developing a hard-rock lithium mine in Brazil, in an all-stock deal worth $377 million. Pilbara already operates a lithium mine in Australia.

Pilbara says the acquisition gives the company access to the battery material markets in North America and Europe.
