Owing to the interruption in the supply of raw materials from CATL's Yichun lithium mine, Longpan Times—a collaborative venture between CATL and Longpan Technology—is projected to suspend its production operations starting Thursday. During an on-site inspection, it was observed that the factory had already stopped production on September 25, and the majority of employees were on leave. Production is anticipated to recommence in November, aligning with the speculated timeframe for the restart of operations at CATL's Yichun Jianxiawo lithium mine. Representatives from Longpan Technology mentioned that the factory was still functioning as usual in September, and future production would hinge on the acquisition of raw materials. The company is proactively seeking to broaden its procurement avenues to facilitate the swift resumption of its production line.
