Scrap supply will continue to increase but

An excess of black mass refining capacity
is also beginning to emerge that will place

indication that China may
soon permit the import of
black mass
The Modi government has a
vision of a self-reliant India,
including establishing a circular

India has issued a total ban on

Cobalt prices elevated on DRC export ban, to potentially be replaced by an export quota market to remain
