Albemarle has top-tier lithium assets through its brine operations in Chile and spodumene hard-rock operations in Western Australia, which are among the lowest-cost sources of lithium production globally.
Lithium prices should remain well above the marginal cost of production through at least the remainder of the decade, leading to excess profits and return on invested capital for Albemarle.
