We report heteronuclear photoassociation spectroscopy in a mixture of magneto-optically trapped 6Li and 7Li. Hyperfine resolved spectra of the vibrational level v=83 of the singlet state have been taken up to intensities of 1000 W/cm^2. Saturation of the photoassociation rate has been observed for two hyperfine transitions, which can be shown to be due to saturation of the rate coefficient near the unitarity limit. Saturation intensities on the order of 40 W/cm^2 can be determined.
