With mining cost ranging from $3,000/ton to $9,000/ton (Figure 1), lithium price could fall to the $10,000/ton level by around 2025, where the exact timing will depend on the actual EV market growth trajectory. Unlike short-term prices, long-term material prices are primarily determined by available reserve and ore grades.
As Citibank termed it, a “perfect storm” has hit the lithium market, caused by destocking, deceleration in EV demand, and continued supply growth. The sudden deceleration in demand for lithium, particularly in the EV industry, caught suppliers by surprise, and as their stockpiles increased, this surplus placed downward pressure on prices.
