Sinomine Resource Group : sa filiale détenue à 100 % Jiangxi Sinomine Lithium suspend temporairement sa production pour maintenance

Savannah Resources announced on June 29 that its Barroso lithium project in Portugal – Europe's largest petalite deposit – would resume operations effective immediately. The restart followed a decision by the Portuguese government to reject an anticipated precautionary measure, thereby lifting the suspension of the related temporary land easement order and removing the final hurdles to site access in the pre‑construction phase. In its ruling, the Portuguese government stressed that the project is of major national and European significance, supporting EU strategic autonomy and the energy transition. It will effectively boost the inland economy, strengthen regional cohesion through job creation, and acknowledged Savannah's compliance during the initial easement implementation in 2025, as well as its active engagement with community concerns. The company said the timely resumption was in line with expectations, and that it would proceed with on‑site work and the final feasibility study.

According to customs statistics, Guangzhou exported over 120,000 vehicles worth RMB 13.295 billion in the first five months of this year, up 65.8% and 56.1% year‑on‑year respectively. Among them, exports of electric passenger vehicles reached 75,500 units valued at RMB 9.36 billion, jumping 92.8% and 88.5% respectively, making auto exports a key driver of the city's foreign trade growth. The rapid export growth is primarily attributed to Guangzhou's enhanced port capacity and service innovations. Nansha Port, equipped with seven berths of 10,000‑tonne class or above and an annual design throughput of over 3 million vehicles, operates 12 international ro‑ro routes. In the January–May period, some 192,000 vehicles were exported through Nansha auto terminal, with NEVs accounting for nearly half and posting growth of over 80%. Meanwhile, innovative models such as the "Guangzhou–Hong Kong Auto Export Express" have cut vehicle registration time from 14 days to 3 days upon arrival in Hong Kong, reducing per‑vehicle costs by more than RMB 2,000 and saving companies over RMB 12 million in total. The city has also issued the "Auto Export Guidebook" and regularly holds resource‑matching events to provide full‑process guidance for automakers.

Le 30 juin, les centres Porsche de Jining (Shandong), Huai’an (Jiangsu) et Xingning, Nanning (Guangxi) ont mis fin à leurs activités de vente, tandis que le centre Porsche de Wuhu (Anhui) cessera ses ventes le 31 juillet. Les services après-vente des quatre sites continueront néanmoins de fonctionner normalement. Porsche Chine a déclaré que cette décision s’inscrit dans son plan de rationalisation du réseau de concessionnaires, selon une stratégie « qualité avant quantité », l’expansion passée cédant la place à la recherche de rentabilité et d’efficacité. D’ici 2025, Porsche avait déjà réduit son nombre de concessionnaires en Chine de 150 à 114, et prévoit de l’optimiser à environ 80 en 2026. Michael Leiters, PDG de Porsche, a récemment affirmé que l’entreprise devait rester rentable même en cas de baisse des volumes de vente.
