Domestic lithium carbonate production soared to a record-high 85,000 tons in August, marking a 5% increase from the previous month and a substantial 39% year-over-year jump. Notably, production from spodumene-based lithium extraction surged significantly, contrasting with declines in mica-based and salt lake-based extraction methods. As downstream demand enters its traditional peak season, lithium prices are poised for an uptick.
