We have updated our outlook to incorporate the following: * updated supply numbers from existing producers * updated supply outlook for near-term projects We have maintained our demand outlook for the coming years. The strong demand growth in the lithium market has been met with supply struggling to keep pace. The supply deficit seen throughout this year continues and as a result prices for lithium chemicals and spodumene concentrate remain at very high levels.
