Lithium is widely being adopted in the manufacturing batteries for electric vehicles, owing to advantages such as longer lifespan, improved fuel efficiency and low discharge rates. Increasing sales of electric vehicles are anticipated to spur demand for lithium in the forthcoming years, which in turn will augment growth of the global lithium mining market.
Moreover, growing demand for glass and ceramics from the packaging industry is likely to create new opportunities for key players operating in the lithium mining market. Glass and ceramics are mostly used in packaging of pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, and other items. Increasing applications of lithium in the glass and ceramics industry will continue boosting growth prospects of the lithium mining market.
In 2020, the global lithium mining market was heavily impacted by the novel coronavirus pandemic. Nationwide lockdowns, travel restrictions, and halted on mining operations hampered the production and consumption of lithium. However, sales are expected to recover in 2021 as demand for lithium from the automotive sector continues to grow.
