Correction to rationales for battery-grade lithium hydroxide, carbonate CIF CJK on July 9

Fastmarkets has corrected the rationales for its MB-LI-0033 lithium hydroxide monohydrate LiOH.H2O 56.5% LiOH min, battery grade, spot price cif China, Japan & Korea and MB-LI-0029 lithium carbonate 99.5% Li2CO3 min, battery grade, spot prices cif China, Japan & Korea, which were published incorrectly on Tuesday July 9.

An offer was erroneously referred to in the battery-grade lithium hydroxide rationale, when in fact it was for battery-grade lithium carbonate.

In the hydroxide rationale the phrase “An offer and indications above the range were not reflected due to no confirmed buying interest there” has been amended to “Indications above the range were not reflected due to no confirmed buying interest there.”

In the carbonate rationale the phrase “Indications above the range were not reflected due to no confirmed buying interest there” has been amended to “An offer and indications above the range were not reflected due to no confirmed buying interest there.”

The published prices are unaffected by this change.

These prices are part of the Fastmarkets industrial minerals package.
