Canada mining group uses China ban to push back on Trump tariffs
“Imposing tariffs on Canadian mineral and metal exports to the US would run counter to the shared goals of secure and reliable supply chains,” the MAC said.
The lithium industry is working through “difficult” times due to low prices for the battery metal and global oversupply concerns, Livent Corp Paul Graves said on Wednesday.

The company late Tuesday cut its full-year revenue and earnings forecast as it decided to delay shipping lithium hydroxide to customers until they need it in 2020.
