Zimbabwe immediately banned lithium concentrate exports in March 2026, tightening global supply as demand outpaces production, according to Fastmarkets’ early-year assessment. Lithium prices remained flat in March, with Chinese lithium carbonate and Australian spodumene spot prices showing minimal movement despite supply constraints. SQM rebounded with a $588.1M net profit for 2025 after 2024 losses, while Rio Tinto shipped its first lithium from Argentina’s Rincon Project, securing $1.17B in financing. Ganfeng and LAR expanded the Cauchari-Olaroz lithium resource estimate by 42% to 28.1Mt LCE, boosting Argentina’s production potential. Core Lithium secured funding and final investment approval to restart Australia’s Finniss Lithium Operation after prior suspensions.
