Lithium ion's early warning system

Data published in Benchmark's most recent price assessments show price increases for the mainstream battery raw materials of lithium, cobalt, nickel, and graphite, focused around and largely driven by the Chinese market.

The biggest movers from Benchmark's price assessments in December 2020 were:
• Lithium carbonate EXW China up 12.9%
• Cobalt sulphate EXW China increased 3.2%
• Nickel sulphate EXW China rose by 6.4%
• Graphite -100, 90-93% C, FOB China up 13.2%
Benchmark’s Managing Director, Simon Moores explained:
“For this suite of battery raw materials, China acts as an early warning system for the rest of the world.
“Historically, price rises that occur in China are usually experienced in the rest of the world 3 to 6 months later.”

While rises remain in their infancy, there is growing evidence that the low-price environment for many battery raw materials is beginning to change.

I think this mob got out yesterday your volume suspicioly similar to what they had .
Issuance and allotment of 1,613,708 CDIs
(ASX: EMH) and cancellation of 2,000,000
unlisted options, exercise price $0.25
expiring 31/12/22 (ASX: EMHAG), under the
terms and conditions of the Consultant
Options Agreement with European Energy
and Infrastructure Group Limited, the terms
of which were included in the Notice of
Annual General Meeting announced to ASX
on 30 November 2020.

And Jam , the tin price is now aprox $2,000 higher than reported in our PFS and hence reduced the cost of Li extraction by aprox $140 a tonne ie Bonus Profit for future .

The Group is planning to sell around 26 million battery electric vehicles by 2030. That is aprox 1.3 million tonnes of Li over the next ten years or 130,000 tonnes per annum for the next ten years . And lets say half for Europe .

More Lithoium supply needed in Europe . exporting batteries .
This will give VW insentive to do an offtake .

And newboy you guys have traded nearly 900,000 shares thus far , those that bought obviously think they are cheap , we too traded 900,000 shares today which is our third largest trading day in last twelve months and not by much . For every seller there is a buyer . Glass half full her .

My answer on Hot copper :
Why did Rodney Hooper mention 50,000 tonnes in his latest podcast , and I wander where that may have come from ? RK Equity are now employed by EMH . Did you not think that this was a subliminal message to the market . The stock market operates on forecast earnings and forecast production , no one cares what was said in the past what you need to do is look into the future . The PFS numbers were plucked out of the air to get the ball rolling , simple as that , the offtakers will truly determine our DFS and there is enough demand to sustain 150,000 tonnes of Li per annum . increasing way beyond that til 2030 . You have to be an absolute ninkumpoop if you believe we are only going to produce 25,000 tonnes a year for 20 years . What ? 8 clients for 3,000 tonne each . laughable !!!!!!!!!!! HD3a already , years ago , said they need 8,000 tonnes . Tesla did 8,000 with Piedmont for crying out loud . VW tender process three years ago was for as much as they could get . CEZ intend to build 2 gigafactories , what ? you think they will buy from Piedmont ? Have you worked out what they will need ? No , I guess not . Any one else guess to give us the numbers , I can't be bothered looking them up .

A little slow and boring but a great take on what the USA is about to do , also intriguing the reason why GM took so long to go all electric .

New Czech poster on HC CZli : New to this chat, but EMH share holder for a while.
As I am czech and I am analyzing all possible local news regarding Cinovec project I am pretty confident it is going to happened on big scale.
CEZ as a majority owner of Geomet is going to build gigafactory nearby Cinovec and is also looking for carmaker to set up joint venture?
CEZ is selling assets held outside Czech Republic and will
focus on local operations and wanted to diversify from
electricity production to new sentiment - lithium?
There is full support for project all the way from locals to the prime minister.
There are EU money to be spent on developing new critical
materials EU needs.
Planning process is well under way, many things happening behind scenes.
Since September there is a lack of significant news except US listings. KC promised to give before Christmas update regarding ongoing drilling ops. but so far nothing.
Also much anticipated announcement of offtake agreement will happened later, there are going to ship samples by January to potential clients. We need to be very patient here but eventually it will reward us.

Sales of full-electric cars from the group’s VW, Audi and Porsche brands rose threefold to 231,600 last year. The ID3 was the group’s top-selling battery-powered model, followed by the Audi e-tron. Sales of plug-in hybrid vehicles increased 175 percent to 190,500.

Market participants expect demand for lithium hydroxide to increase in the coming years, coinciding with the development of higher-performance batteries and vehicles with longer driving ranges.
