Ann: Spot sale linked to hydroxide chemical pricing, page-34

it's market, if we don't complain when price is high then can't complain when price is lower. If only us making money, where would the money come from? I now understand Dale's comments about Chinese buyers/market is important. I think part of this is converter is trying to convince miners and EV makers not to go down the concerting path. In term of scale, yes it would be cheaper if done by a big guy rather than many smaller processing plants. However, it's too late. Li battery is not fuel, it's a component of a car. Car need secured supply (and best be done by them themselves). Depending on someone for a component of a car is a very high risk decision.
