After requests from the physical and financial markets, Fastmarkets MB has decided to add to its benchmark portfolio the spodumene min 5-6% cif China price with effect from Friday January 25. The monthly assessment has been available on Fastmarkets IM since 2011.
Seen as a potential physical benchmark due to the importance of this material in the lithium supply chain – representing over half of the global yearly production of lithium in lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) terms – Fastmarkets MB will add this price to its pricebook and lithium spotlight.
The pricing methodology and specification are available in the lithium methodology document and are as follows:
Assessment: Spodumene min 5-6% Li2O, cif China, $/tonne Quality: min 5-6% Li2O Basis: cif China Form: Spodumene concentrate Currency & Unit: $ per tonne Publication frequency: Monthly, last Wednesday of the month between 3pm and 4pm London time
Historial data for the spodumene min 5-6% Li2O, cif China, price up to August 2017 will be available in the Fastmarkets MB pricebook.
