Lithium Market Balance
LAKE
RESOURCES
The lithium market is expected to be in deficit from 2029 onwards, based on current project pipeline
■ With lengthy lead times to develop new projects, battery raw material supply will quickly fall short of accelerating demand in the pledges and net
zero scenarios
■ Deficits could emerge in the near term and extend to ~1 Mt LCE by 2040. Kachi's anticipated ~25 ktpa of Phase 1 battery grade carbonate production
is likely to have sufficient demand headroom in the long-term
