It had been far too long, so for this special episode, we invited back Joe “Mr Lithium” Lowry. We discussed Joe’s fantastic recent write-up on the evolution and geopolitical strategy at play in the lithium sector, what the West can do going forward, the winners from recent M&A, the lithium markets sentiment, and finally, in a turning of the tables, Joe fires a few questions at us.
