Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Core Viewpoints - On December 17, 2025, the lithium carbonate futures 2605 contract rose 7.61% to 108,620 yuan/ton. The average price of battery-grade lithium carbonate increased by 1,200 yuan/ton to 97,050 yuan/ton, the average price of industrial-grade lithium carbonate increased by 1,100 yuan/ton to 94,450 yuan/ton, and the price of battery-grade lithium hydroxide (coarse particles) rose 1,100 yuan/ton to 85,480 yuan/ton. The warehouse receipt inventory increased by 350 tons to 15,636 tons [3]. - In terms of supply, the weekly production increased by 59 tons to 21,998 tons. The production of lithium carbonate from spodumene increased by 260 tons to 13,744 tons, the production from lithium mica decreased by 200 tons to 2,876 tons, the production from salt lakes decreased by 15 tons to 3,075 tons, and the production from recycled materials increased by 14 tons to 2,303 tons. The production of lithium carbonate in December is expected to increase by 3% month-on-month to 98,210 tons. In terms of demand, the weekly production of ternary materials decreased by 384 tons to 18,313 tons, and the inventory decreased by 318 tons to 18,524 tons. The weekly production of lithium iron phosphate decreased by 1,336 tons to 94,144 tons, and the inventory decreased by 23 tons to 103,658 tons. The production of ternary materials in December is expected to decline by 7% month-on-month to 78,280 tons, and the production of lithium iron phosphate is expected to decline by 1% month-on-month to 410,000 tons. In terms of inventory, the weekly inventory decreased by 2,133 tons to 111,469 tons, with downstream inventory decreasing by 957 tons to 42,738 tons, other环节 inventory increasing by 430 tons to 49,570 tons, and upstream inventory decreasing by 1,606 tons to 19,161 tons [3]. - The cancellation of mining licenses is more of a follow-up to the issue of compliant lithium ore mining, not a contraction of lithium resource supply. Recently, the weekly social inventory has continued to decline, and the inventory turnover days decreased by 0.5 days week-on-week to 26.5 days. Due to recent overseas resource disturbances and the weakening expectation of the resumption of production at the Jianxiaowo Mine, the expected negative factors did not materialize as scheduled. In the future, if the resumption of lithium ore projects in Jiangxi is combined with seasonal off - peak factors, it may lead to a slowdown in the de - stocking speed or even inventory accumulation, and the price may still have a callback probability. However, under the strong demand expectation, the downstream's willingness to stock up may also be relatively strong, and the overall price performance may be more likely to rise than to fall. Attention should be paid to the resumption rhythm, the decline in production scheduling, and whether the strong demand next year can be verified [3]. Summary by Directory 1. Research Views - Futures and spot prices: The lithium carbonate futures 2605 contract rose 7.61% to 108,620 yuan/ton. The average price of battery - grade lithium carbonate increased by 1,200 yuan/ton to 97,050 yuan/ton, the average price of industrial - grade lithium carbonate increased by 1,100 yuan/ton to 94,450 yuan/ton, and the price of battery - grade lithium hydroxide (coarse particles) rose 1,100 yuan/ton to 85,480 yuan/ton.
