This is a quick quote from a basic G search:
"A total of 345,000 tonnes of processed lithium were produced in 2020, dominated by resources from the lithium triangle and Australia. Lithium production must quadruple between 2020 and 2030 to meet growing demand, from 345,000 tonnes in 2020 to 2 million tonnes in 2030." (the highlight is my own): https://www.fastmarkets.com/article/3999803/lithium-supply-and-demand-to-2030

and another:
"The lithium production industry is dominated by only four companies – Talison, SQM, Albemarle and FMC. Geographically Australia, China and Chile also account for about 85% of global lithium production." (the highlight is my own) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenbushes_mine#:~:text=The%20entity%20Windfield%20Holdings%20Pty%20Ltd%20%2851%25%20ownership%29,Ltd%20through%20an%20entity%20known%20as%20RT%20Lithium.
The Australian mine at Greenbushes in W.A. is the more difficult hard rock resource. It has a significant Chinese owner.

XTC is now in the 'Lithium Triangle'.
