Liontown Resources is just months away from first lithium production at its Kathleen Valley project in Australia, but an accelerated expansion is not very likely to happen, chief executive officer Tony Ottaviano told Fastmarkets in an interview.

The sharp correction in lithium prices has been driven by a decline in demand rather than supply over-build, particularly given that projects are already being curtailed, deferred or capacity cut, the chief executive officer of Australia-based Liontown Resources said
