In this Rock Stock Recap, Chris Williams of Adamas Intelligence joins us (Howard, Matt and Rodney) to discuss lithium markets, DLE technology, incentive pricing, project valuations, and the outlook for lithium supply and demand.

We examine whether recent project restarts really threaten the market balance, why energy storage systems (ESS) are outperforming expectations, how capital intensity impacts project economics, and what lithium prices are needed to incentivize new supply. We also discuss Vulcan Energy, Q2 Metals, Quebec hard-rock lithium, Thacker Pass, and the future of Western lithium refining.
