Leading mining services and mining company Mineral Resources (ASX: MIN) says 6% spodumene concentrate shipments from its half-owned Mt Marion lithium project south of Kalgoorlie will be priced at $US608.95 per dry tonne during the September quarter. The price is down from $US682.38/t received in the June quarter, another sign of the tough trading conditions facing the entire ASX-listed lithium sector. Despite the softer price, MinRes said that Mt Marion remained “a profitable and highly valuable long-life lithium asset” for the company.
