Guocheng Lithium's 200ktpy lithium salt project phase I goes into production

Guocheng Mining announced on July 13 that the phase I of the 200,000tpy lithium salt project, invested in and built by its subsidiary Sichuan Guocheng Lithium Co., Ltd., has completed commissioning and trial operations. The first-phase production line, with a production capacity of 60,000tpy of battery-grade lithium carbonate, is now officially operational and delivering stable product quality. With the project now in production, the company will leverage its shareholding in Maerkang Jinxin Mining to secure lithium ore resources, accelerate capacity ramp-up, optimize its lithium salt product mix, and enhance overall product value.

As of December 31, 2025, Maerkang Jinxin Mining holds lithium ore resources totaling 84.129 million tonnes within its spodumene mining and exploration rights, containing 1,118,369 tonnes of Li2O at an average grade of 1.33%.
