Albemarle’s Global Product Pricing Manager Peter Hannah will speak on a panel at the Fastmarkets BRM Lithium Supply and Battery Raw Materials Conference in Amsterdam on Wednesday, September 18. The panel, “How will the Lithium Market Develop? Exploring Pricing Mechanisms and Risk in an Evolving Ecosystem,” will cover several burning issues in this dynamic pricing environment, including: ❓ What are the prevailing pricing mechanisms in today’s lithium market? ❓ How could the quality of pricing be improved to better reflect the realities of the lithium market? ❓ How are developments in the market ecosystem changing the approach of supply chain participants on the issue of price risk? #FastmarketsBRM #RawMaterials #Lithium

Always a pleasure to sit down and speak with Howard Klein and Rodney Hooper. There are very few people that dedicate as much time in understanding the market as these two gentlemen. We spoke about inventory levels and a recent article written on the subject by my colleague Will Adams, which is linked in the comments section below. There was a nice remark in the comment section regarding a problem facing those trying to forecast the market, being that all of the participants in the supply chain can act irrational. There is no way to forecast irrational behaviour. For example, in the current spot environment, many higher cost producers of both spodumene and lepidolite will be feeling the pinch. This has already resulted in most mines in Jiangxi tightening production, with integrated ones cutting output in December, as one would expect. On the other hand we have received confirmation that CATL will maintain production plans at Jianxiawo in 2024, even though they will meet losses as current operating costs are between 90-115,000 yuan per tonne. This is not rational behavior when compared to how a western company might act in the face of potential losses, but for CATL the asset is a strategic long-term development. Despite lepidolite acting somewhat “sticky” and the lower costs producers still posting healthy operating margins (+50% CIF basis for $PLS), the current price is not sustainable in the long run. In line with a restocking lead price rebound to chemicals, we expect the spodumene price to increase by ~70% from current levels once restocking begins. https://lnkd.in/eMXWte53

What we learned at the Lithium Supply and Battery Raw Materials conference 2024 excellent article of Fastmarkets about Bearish sentiment prevails in the spot lithium market due to ongoing sluggish demand and oversupply, with many delegates at a recent conference seeing no near-term support for demand. Rising lithium supplies from Africa, particularly Zimbabwe, are expected to exacerbate the oversupply issue and further pressure prices. Despite this, recent auctions by major producers are believed to add transparency and efficiency to the market, potentially aiding in price stabilization and hedging strategies.

***Fastmarkets Pricing Panel*** #Lithium I participated in the Fastmarkets BRM lithium pricing panel last month in Las Vegas. We discussed whether we are in a supercycle and how the ex-China lithium price might evolve. Is it in the interests of the large Chinese battery companies to run local lepidolite mines at a loss for a percentage of their needs to secure the balance of their carbonate at lower prices? CATL and BYD now represent nearly 74% of Chinese battery production - how is this reality reshaping the lithium supply chain? Link to video here: https://lnkd.in/dfiPz2NX
