The Chinese lithium market showed little change in May and the prices of lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide remained stable
. Consumers continued buying from hand to mouth and had no plans to purchase in large quantities . Moreover, traders also held a cautious attitude towards the market, being reluctant to replenish materials due to the soft demand. However, it was said by some that prices for imported spodumene would further increase by USD10/t to around USD400/t in the third quarter of this year, but many market participants refused to accept this as the scale of the increase was too large and it might not take account of final imported prices.
