Global lithium and critical minerals sector developments

Overview

The lithium and critical minerals sector is experiencing various corporate developments and exploration activities. In Germany, AMG Critical Materials completed its takeover of Zinnwald Lithium, acquiring the remaining stake to gain full ownership of the mining firm. This project, located in the Osterzgebirge region of Saxony, aims to begin lithium mining by 2030 to support European battery, automotive, and defense supply chains.

In other regions, Highland Critical Minerals is concluding a summer exploration program at the Church Property in Northern Ontario. Additionally, European Lithium and Critical Metals are proceeding toward a merger through a court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement. In China, CATL faces operational uncertainty as the Jianxiawo lithium mine awaits environmental impact assessment approval.
