Stubbornly resilient lithium supply remains hurdle to recovery
Lithium prices have plunged since late 2022 on oversupply and slower-than-expected growth in electric vehicle demand.
Brazilian miner Vale said on Tuesday it has signed a memorandum of understanding with Swedish firm GreenIron to develop initiatives aimed at decarbonizing the mining industry supply chain in Brazil and Sweden.
The partnership includes studies on the feasibility of a direct reduction plant to be operated by GreenIron in Brazil and the supply of Vale iron ore to GreenIron’s commercial operations in Sandviken, Sweden, the mining giant said in a statement.
