In August, the price of lithium carbonate rose slightly, and the market expected short-term supply tightening, while downstream battery production schedules exceeded expectations. According to statistics from the Lithium Branch of the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, in August, the country's lithium carbonate production was about 96,000 tons, down 2.5% from the previous month; the country's lithium hydroxide production was about 33,000 tons, up 2.5% from the previous month. The country's lithium salt production is equivalent to about 125,000 tons of lithium carbonate equivalent, a decrease of 1.4% over the previous month. The decline in production was mainly due to the fact that the quantity of lithium ore arriving in Hong Kong in Zimbabwe fell short of expectations, and some production lines of the company stopped production and maintenance.
