China becomes world’s second-largest holder of lithium reserves, Xinhua reports
China's lithium reserves have risen from 6% to 16.5% of the global total, state media reported.
Australia’s Mineral Resources on Thursday reported a 30% sequential jump in its second-quarter spodumene concentrate output from its Mt Marion operation, helped by improved ore recoveries.
The diversified miner produced 83,000 dry metric tonnes (dmt) of spodumene concentrate for the quarter ended Dec. 31, up from 64,000 dmt in the previous three-month period.
