ASX-listed Piedmont Lithium has announced plans to accelerate its lithium hydroxide strategy timeline, on the back of strong market interest.
The US-focused Piedmont on Wednesday said that it would accelerate the development of its lithium chemicals plant by one year while deferring the mine and concentrator construction start date by one year, effectively compressing the project timeline into a single-stage, with the target of starting lithium chemical production by late 2022.
