Lithium hydroxide follows closely at 16,400 dollars per metric ton, while cobalt sulphate prices sit at 8,419 dollars. Nickel sulphate and flake graphite remain significantly lower, priced at 4,172 and 415 dollars per metric ton respectively. These figures provide a snapshot of the raw material landscape as of the latest market update.

Lithium derivatives and cobalt sulphate undergo weekly price revisions, while nickel sulphate assessments occur on a bi-weekly cycle. Flake graphite pricing follows a monthly schedule, reflecting its different supply chain dynamics. All figures are quoted in U.S. dollars per metric ton on an EXW China basis.
