OverSupply
Scare 2.0
SQM 2010:
“We can supply Lithium for
1000 years.”	
SQM 2018:
“Maybe we can produce 216,000 T Lithium LCE in 2025.”

SQM Lithium Oversupply
Scare 2.0	
•  “UBS analyst Lachlan Shaw says SQM deal will not
affect lithium supply for at least 4 or 5 years given
the time required to build the expansions. When
SQM’s expansion eventually does hit, Mr. Shaw says
demand should be surging sufficiently to ensure a
shortage of lithium.”

Security
of Lithium Supply.	
•  We are Here now: The Price of Lithium is the second
thought after you have got some Secure Supply.
•  The Future: The Price of Lithium and its Amount
Somewhere are not important if You Can’t Get It.
•  Scene One: China is diverting Supply of Lithium
Chemicals for Batteries to Their Own Producers.
•  Scene Two: Australia, Chile, Argentina, Canada
and Others Prohibit The Export of Any Battery Grade
Chemicals other than In Lithium Batteries.
•  I will leave this stimulating process of thinking to all
interested parties.

Disruption of $12 T Industries:
Energy and Transportation.	
•  Disruption of $12 Trillion Industries: $8 T Energy & $4 T
Transportation is based on $3 B Lithium Market by
sales in 2017.
•  Money flow in Security of Lithium Supply will expand
this market by price first and by volume after it.
•  Investments are lacking the Big Picture – Price
Shocks Are Imminent.
•  M&A will redistribute the existing production first
(SQM) and near-future supply development second
(Lithium X).
•  Tesla Energy rEVolution – All Known Reserves of
Lithium will be produced.

The End of The ICE Age &
OIL Domination.	
For centuries we have been burning things just to get some energy.
It has been mostly OIL for the last 100 years.
Not Any More.
We do not have to burn things.
Electricity is the most efficient form of Energy known to humans.
And now we can Store It and USE IT When We Want.
Cheap Lithium Batteries Change Everything.
