SQM's Low-Cost Lithium Poised To Benefit From Rising EV Sales and ESS Growth
Sociedad Quimica y Minera de Chile is a large, low-cost producer of lithium, iodine, and nitrates used in specialty fertilizers. SQM’s crown jewels are its geologically advantaged lithium and caliche ore assets in Chile. SQM’s low-cost lithium deposit in the Salar de Atacama boasts the highest concentration of lithium globally and benefits from high evaporation rates in the Chilean desert. As electric vehicle penetration increases, we expect double-digit annual growth for global lithium demand, one of the best growth profiles among commodities.
