Coming lithium shortage - Benchmark version
New lithium supply, especially of high quality battery grade, requires a long lead time. There is substantial mothballed spodumene/lithium oxide supply on hold in Australia but the top tier refining capacity for that supply in China is limited. There are two major brine plants under active construction - Lithium Americas/Ganfeng's Cauchari and Orocobre's expansion but the latter is unlikely to be top tier grade given the track record with the existing plant. Lac/Ganfeng's Cauchari will begin production in early 21 but won't reach capacity till late that year, if all goes well. Livent is building LiOH capacity in North Carolina but are slowing brine source expansion in Argentina.
