In this episode, Rodney and I share insights from our recent attendance at the Fastmarkets Lithium Conference in Las Vegas. We interviewed several key industry players to provide you with a detailed update on current trends, strategic developments, and the overall market sentiment in the lithium and battery metals sector.

We spoke with Iggy Tan from Lithium Universe, who discussed their competitive advantage in lithium carbonate refining due to Quebec’s access to low-cost hydropower and strategic proximity to North American lithium resources. Rick Anton, Chairman of Savannah Resources and Euro Manganese, emphasized the importance of local engagement and strategic partnerships, outlining significant progress in Portugal and the Czech Republic.

Daniel Abdo from Sigma Lithium highlighted Brazil’s strong position in the lithium industry, emphasizing its low-cost, renewable energy infrastructure and diplomatic neutrality. YJ Lee from Arcane Capital provided a bullish outlook, forecasting substantial growth driven by energy storage and increased adoption of electric trucks.

On the exploration side, Alicia Milne from Q2 Metals updated us on their promising new discoveries in Quebec, while JP Vargas from Galan Lithium and Gabriel Rubacha from NOA Lithium Brines discussed their progress with high-grade brine projects in Argentina, notably attracting strategic investments from Clean Elements.

Overall, despite current market headwinds, the sentiment among these experienced industry leaders remains cautiously optimistic, driven by innovation, strategic positioning, and strong long-term demand fundamentals.
