Catamarca signed an agreement to support FMC’s plan of expanding lithium output in the region.

SHANGHAI, Nov 13 (SMM) – Catamarca signed an agreement to support FMC’s plan of expanding lithium output in the region. Pierre Brondeau, CEO of FMC Corporation, said that 250 – 300 million dollars would be invested into the lithium mines in Catamarca to expand its output of lithium carbonate by at least 20,000 tons.

Lithium carbonate producers in China to be compelled to cut output in Q2

Inventory pressure of lithium carbonate, a raw material for digital and power batteries, may continue to mount in April as Chinese lithium salt producers have not yet planned to wind down production. Elevated inventories together with limited downsides in lithium carbonate prices with support from costs, however, may trigger output cut in the second quarter.

COVID-19 pandemic in Europe dampened demand outlook for cobalt and lithium materials

The widespread coronavirus has deterred production of NEVs in the European countries, and this may impact the global prospects for NEV production and take a toll on the consumption of raw materials. Last week, bearish sentiment continued to prevail in the cobalt market, which depressed downstream purchases and added to upstream inventory pressure. Sluggish demand reduced prices of battery-grade lithium carbonate, which were underpinned by costs, while fundamentals supported prices of industrial-grade lithium carbonate.
