It is suggested to pay attention to the target: continue to be optimistic about the new metal materials sector in an all-round way. The high price of lithium concentrate is still good for enterprises with high self-sufficiency rate of lithium resources. It is recommended to pay attention to Tianqi Lithium Corporation(002466) , Youngy Co.Ltd(002192) , Ganfeng Lithium Co.Ltd(002460) ; The construction of a world-class Salt Lake industrial base in Qinghai has been mentioned again. China's independent and controllable salt lake resources are of great strategic significance. It is suggested to pay attention to Qinghai Salt Lake Industry Co.Ltd(000792) , Keda Industrial Group Co.Ltd(600499) , Sunresin New Materials Co.Ltd Xi'An(300487) .
