RE:Lithium jumped $300 today Per my source, the Shanghai spot price per lithium is $ 12;088 USD per tonne (VAT excluded).
The selling price to be used in the NPV calculations is the average selling price (VAT out)
over the life of the project. Given inflation and the advancement of solid state lithium batteries
I would expect that lithium prices will pick up though not as quickly as forecast a few years ago.
