Can someone explain this to me. so the costs to set up a lithium mine are increasing due to inflation and increase costs of labour and materials. Surely this will have a significant impact on other prospective lithium mines across the globe potential making it economically unviable to mine. Potentially many of the proposed mines will never bear fruit. Thus in turn slowing down the supply of lithium. With Liontown now having sufficient money to go mining, surely they are in a strong position to capitalise. hHow many more mines will even get to production between say 2024-2026 ?
