From the Horses mouth " According to Posco, global demand for lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide is projected to increase from 250,000 tons in 2017 to 710,000 tons in 2025. Demand for lithium hydroxide, in particular, will increase significantly amid a rise in electric vehicle sales, the company " I wander where the 450,000 tonnes are going to come from .

fpvone , The Chinese are already doing it !!!! "Zhang Jiangfeng, director of the lithium branch of the China Nonferrous Industry Association, sad that importing lithium was a smart strategy. �When Chinese companies invest in lithium mines abroad and then bring the extracted lithium into the country for processing, � Chinese businesses can still reap dividends from exploiting lithium resources while maintaining China�s domestic lithium resources,� Zhang told Caixin." No one else in the world will ever get to these resources in China they are just not gunna share . And they will probably still continue to buy all of Australia"s Lithium to keep it out of their competitors hands . Very Very Clever . https://www.caixinglobal.com/2018-03-30/why-does-lithium-rich-china-import-so-much-101228732.html

fpvone , I bet you China is already thinking about strategic reserves , they are very clever at what they know and do . It would not surprise me if they are already doing it now as they are very aware of where the Lithium price will be in the future . If I was a billion billionaire , I would be buying as much Lithium as I could right now and just put in my back pocket for a year . It is called Supply and Demand some thing I did focus on in High School .

I can only assume these countries will eventually have to hoard a percentage of Lithium for the same reasons . ( According to the United States Energy Information Administration, approximately 4.1 billion barrels (650,000,000 m3) of oil are held in strategic reserves, of which 1.4 billion is government-controlled. ) Links : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_strategic_petroleum_reserves https://curiousmatic.com/the-worlds-strategic-reserves-hold-pork-oil-helium-and-more/ Furthermore , whilst VW are expecting a supply of batteries from CATL , LG and the like ( and are all building battery gigafactories in Europe ) most of these companies still do not have a full guarantee of supply well into the future . As are the likes of all other car manufactures including Tesla , Tesla still don�t have full guarantee of all its needs into the future either and then there are the sub categories mentioned above of other vehicles . There will be interesting times ahead for EMH , remembering that Panosonic were in early discussions with EMH when they viewed our mine nearly 2 years ago , yes the wheels do move slowly . I am sure that there have been many discussions in the past with all the players that have a need in the Lithium space , it will only be a matter of time that one of these players finally jump at our resource , as the world does really need Lithium now and well into the future . These words from our management are a true indication that there is light at the very near end of the tunnel : �The Company remains entirely focused on working with all stakeholders, including the Minister of Industry of Trade and the Government of the Czech Republic, to successfully develop the Cinovec Project as a first-in-kind project that will pave the way for a successful lithium mining and processing industry in the Czech Republic.

Take out the Chi exchange where I believe the manipulators are hiding and the BOT and you will find on Commsec ,Westpac and ANZ , the ASX , there is only 6 sellers . This is more indicative of what the real market thinks of our stock . Yes there has been some negative sentiment on our stock due to politics , but I can assure you politics does get in the road of many stocks including one of my favorites KNM whereby Trump shut down all the American government services and withdrew federal funding to States that did not want to comply to his wishes . But all these things are temporary as all Governments have to move on and run their business as usual eventually and within their laws . There are only 47,168 shares for sale up to 55 cents on the ASX , a fair indication where the price will move on any greater news , the whole world knows how cheap we are in comparison to our peers in the market . As we have seen from all reports and news there just will not be enough Lithium in the world in next few years standard electric vehicles will see to that alone , and yet I have not seen any predictions of Lithium use for all the vehicles that are beginning to use Li Ion batteries . If any one has these figures please share . I would particularly like to find out what lithium demand could be for ships and ferries that are now transforming to battery power . From all accounts the media's figures of demand including Rosskill and others do not include the massive demand that these other vehicles will project as there is no simple way to discover the market size of all these other vehicles , trucks ( small and large ) , forklifts , motorcycles ( of all denomination ) , e bikes , motor mowers , construction vehicles and most other power tools that used ice motors . This does not also include the huge demand that will come from battery storage either . It is unfortunate that politics have played a part in our share price demise , but the recent announcement by EMH and KC's interview on Directors talk is showing a clear path to production and confirmed to me that our business is proceeding to the future of production . The nay sayers have moved on and a new bunch of investors will emerge , and as we have seen on LSE some of the naysayers have re entered . In conclusion the Lithium price currently around $16,000 US a tonne ( apparently Contract rates ) have sky rocketed to today�s current demand , I wander where the price will go for tomorrows demand . I am astounded that as so far no one in media has reflected the need to store lithium for the future as we are only using Li that comes straight out of the ground at the moment , all countries have a storage of all commodities in case of war and supply chain breakdown most countries hold months of supply of oil , gas , iron ore , coal etc as the necessities of life if there was a breakdown in supply . I can only assume these countries will eventually have to hoard a percentage of Lithium for the same re

Interesting to remember what we have : 7 million tonnes of Lithium under ground , with a block adjacent fully untested ( which the directors who showed me sprooked was better than the existing ground ) . Which means we have aprox $182 Billion dollars worth of lithium ( even without the other block ) and yet we have a $50 million market cap AUD . Our value underground is 3,640 times our market cap . Don't figure . That's a 140 year mine life at 50,000 tonnes of Lithium per annum and a profit or aprox $1 Billion per annum AUD . Always good to look at the fundamentals for why we purchased here in the first place . Let the turn around begin .

before it was the hottest game in town. Koort says the thematic investors think the cyclical demand for lithium will overwhelm any fears of oversupply. "They want to own the arms merchants to that EV revolution," he says. "I will tell you they are shaken. But the true believers, the true zealots in the EV adoption curve will still continue to buy these lithium companies." Koort says the cyclical investors are mainly mining analysts and mining investors. "Frankly some of the hedge funds are gleeful that we have seen this sell-off, that it was inevitable, that companies were making too much, that it was going too far too fast," he says. "The fact that you still have companies earning 60 to 70 per cent cash margins just suggests there is going to be an overflow of new entrants to take advantage of that. Even today, although we have seen reversals in these stocks, you have SQM, Albermarle, FMC, all in that 11 or 12 times EBITDA range which, if it is a cyclical industry, is too high." Koort says the traditional chemical investors got a little concerned when the market got over heated. "Now that we have seen a big pull-back, they are attempting to get involved again," he says. "I think the challenge for that group of investors is that they need to see some catalyst on the horizon that can make them feel like the worst is over and maybe we have flushed out the negative sentiment and we can start re-establishing some enthusiasm for the space." Investors pondering a punt on the minerals used in batteries that help power electric vehicles need to keep a watchful eye on China, which could make the EV revolution happen faster than lithium producers think.

Questions raised about return of lithium boom Scratch below the surface of one of the world's most promising investment themes for the next two decades � electric vehicles - and you will not be surprised to find China is the single most important driver of growth and profitability. China is at the forefront of the adoption of technologies to slash greenhouse gases. Its socialist market economy, which includes centralised control over industrial production, has led to the fastest uptake of electric vehicles of any country in the world. China's shipments of electric vehicles in January were 38,470, up about 480 per cent from a year earlier, according to figures published last month by Japanese broker Nomura. In 2017 global shipments of electric vehicles hit 1.4 million, up 50 per cent on a year earlier. China accounted for 76 per cent of global shipments of electric vehicles in December 2017, according to Nomura. These figures include plug in hybrid electric vehicles. Over the past five years the most profitable way to ride the electric vehicle boom was to invest in mining companies that either produced minerals used in battery manufacture or were exploring for minerals that could be used in battery production. But the explosion of speculative interest in battery-related mining stocks, particularly those mining lithium, peaked in the last six months. This caused people to question where the industry was headed. Pertinent questions were being asked such as: Is the lithium market as cyclical as every other commodity? Will new entrants be attracted by the excessive profit margins? Will there be an over-supply of lithium? Fund managers who attended a seminar in Sydney this week hosted by Goldman Sachs were given an unvarnished view of the prospects for lithium and other minerals used in the manufacture of batteries. Following a presentation by Bob Koort, who heads the Goldman Sachs research effort focused on the chemical industry and is based in Houston, 15 companies made presentations to fund managers. The following companies (ranked by market cap) presented their wares: Independence Group, Orocobre, Pilbara Minerals, Galaxy Resources, Syrah Resources, Western Areas, Clean TeQ Holdings, Altura Mining, Global Geoscience, Neometals, Talga Resources, First Cobalt, Lithium Power International, Lithium Australia and Blackstone Minerals. The share prices of some of these companies have been highly volatile with several doubling in value over the past year despite falling more than 20 per cent this year. Koort gave a balanced view of the market for lithium stocks and other battery-minerals-related miners trying to crowd into the battery market. He says he has been dealing with three groups of investors in North America: the thematic investors who think an electronic vehicle revolution is inevitable, the cyclical investors who treat lithium like any other commodity and the chemical investors who knew about lithium

PS guys , now you know how we won the Ashes , Smith and Co been banned for one year and two years in leadership roles . Just released . All us commoners are so embarrassed , What a bunch of funkknuckles .

tesla 101 , I beg my pardon for correcting you , the only new holder in the top 40 is the last one , he was probably no 41 last time , it seems Citicorp has taken over the German holding as they have consolidated their own holding and merged with the old HSBC which raised the 41 th spot to 40 spot . It is also curious that the Aim Holding has reduced , so some one is arbitraging back to Australia . Of your top forty , 25 holders held their shares , 8 shareholders increased their shares and there were 7 decreasers . Subsequent to the aim holding there was a net decrease of 209,059 shares . This is the first time in two years the top 40 has decreased it's holding .

I think they are talking about EMH . "Are you thinking about investing in lithium? If so, one option is to invest in a lithium miner. When doing so, it is important to select the best lithium company based on the following factors: valuation, production costs, stage of development, and resources.
