Prices are still falling and should base sometime in the next 6 months IMO. Anyway time will tell.
When Tianqi start producing hydroxide on Australian shores and reduce their cost base dramatically what happens to those players who cannot do likewise? Interesting huh!

Maybe hydroxide from Australia will still cost more than hydroxide from China given Australia's high labour costs. Labour costs in Africa are low ...... mmmmm.
