On June 24, Ganfeng Lithium shipped the first batch of lithium concentrate from its Goulamina project in Mali to China, with the cargo expected to arrive at a domestic port in early August.
Located in Mali, West Africa, the project holds an estimated 211 million tonnes of ore resources. It began production in 2024, with Phase I designed to produce 506,000 tonnes of lithium concentrate annually. This marks Ganfeng's first fully self-developed and operated lithium project in Africa.
This shipment also represents the first-ever export of lithium concentrate from West Africa, signaling the start of commercial output from Ganfeng's African operations and reinforcing its commitment to providing high-quality, stable lithium supply to global customers.
