The long-term lithium salt capacity may exceed 110000 tons, including 77500 tons of lithium hydroxide equity capacity. On the resource side, it owns yelonggou, Murong and maxmind mines, with a total equity resource of about 718900 tons of LCE. At the same time, it has the sales volume of MT cattlin and avz packages.
Deeply embedded in the mainstream supply chain, the company’s performance can be released. (1) Chengxin Lithium Group Co.Ltd(002240) on the one hand, the company actively seeks cooperation with outstanding enterprises in the industrial chain. Previously, it planned to jointly build smelting capacity with stellar, a subsidiary of Qingshan. According to SMM, the planned capacity of Qingshan Ruipu and Lanjun new energy batteries has exceeded 200gwh, and there is a large demand for lithium salt. (2) Byd Company Limited(002594) in terms of Salt Lake and Sichuan mine layout for many years: 1) Byd Company Limited(002594) holds 18% equity of Zabuye lithium industry. At present, Zabuye phase II preparation is progressing smoothly, and 12000 tons of lithium carbonate capacity may be completed and put into operation in 2023. 2) In December 2017, Byd Company Limited(002594) announced the establishment of “Qinghai Salt Lake Byd Company Limited(002594) Resource Development Co., Ltd.” ( Byd Company Limited(002594) holds 49% shares) in cooperation with Qinghai Salt Lake Industry Co.Ltd(000792) in order to start the construction of the “project with an annual output of 30000 tons of battery grade lithium carbonate”. The total investment of the project is planned to be 4.849 billion yuan. At present, the project is still in the pilot state. 3) Sichuan Mining Co., Ltd. has closely cooperated with Youngy Co.Ltd(002192) and the latter’s 2.5 million ton beneficiation project has completed the second EIA publicity, which is converted into 470000 tons of lithium concentrate.

Accelerate the layout of the lithium industry chain, integrate upstream and downstream, highlight the growth, or start the valuation repair logic. At present, the importance of lithium resources is prominent. This transaction is an integrated cooperation between upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain around lithium resources and lithium salts. Previously, Contemporary Amperex Technology Co.Limited(300750) , Gotion High-Tech Co.Ltd(002074) , Eve Energy Co.Ltd(300014) and other similar arrangements have been made. After the integration of the lithium industrial chain, the cost caused by inventory and transaction may be reduced, and the information asymmetry between supply and demand will be gradually reduced. The price of lithium is expected to remain stable or guide the demand for new energy to develop better, Continue to be optimistic about the growth of the industry, and enterprises participating in integration may have good incremental space.
