We don’t believe lithium supply can keep up with this level of demand growth. Lead times for lithium mines (from discovery to production) can take 5+ years, so there is no quick fix. If demand can grow at the market’s expected pace, this could lead to large supply deficits from 2025 onwards.
George needs to get some additional units on order with Stark. They say above there is no quick fix, yet Stark can produce the kit in 6 months. If everyone is clambering for this sort of equipment to produce multiple pilot mines, we don't want to be at the end of a queue to get it
