We start the week by chatting about rumoured M&A in the West Australian lithium sector, with a group of Indian groups reportedly interested in buying a stake in SQM’s assets.

Then we venture into the world of antimony by dissecting Larvotto’s surge to “fame”.

To wrap up we dive into Adriatic’s announcements which saw it get whacked by the market.
