Across markets

Australian shares are poised to rise on Monday as investors wait on new inflation data – and whether oil production will fall – to guide their forecasting on whether the Reserve Bank will hike interest rates again.

ASX futures suggest shares will open 0.2 per cent higher, setting the stage for a strong recovery in November. The S&P/ASX 200 is on course for its biggest monthly jump since January, up 3.8 per cent.

On the year, however, shares are only back to where they started the year, in sharp contrast with the US where the S&P 500 is 19 per cent higher year-to-date and up 37 per cent for the Nasdaq.

George Boubouras, head of research at K2 Asset Management, says the ASX lag is partially due to the RBA’s tightening. The central bank lifted the cash rate to 4.35 per cent, the 13th increase since last year, saying inflation was too high and warning it would do it again if it did not ease.

  • Vulcan Energy’s lithium extraction optimisation plant has officially opened in Germany
  • The major milestone represents the first locally sourced lithium chemicals to be produced in Europe
  • Financing for the next phase of development continues as Vulcan Energy strives to become a major player in the EU’s burgeoning battery electric vehicle industry

Special Report: The first lithium chemicals sourced from an entirely local value chain in Europe are ready to be produced via Vulcan Energy’s newly minted lithium extraction optimisation plant in Landau, Germany.

Vulcan Energy Resources (ASX: VUL) officially opened its Lithium Extraction Optimisation Plant (LEOP) on Thursday 23 November in a ceremony attended by local community, shareholders, politicians, strategic partners, and other industry representatives.

The ceremonial unveiling of the plant follows almost three years of testing and pilot lithium production. More than 10,000 hours of successful in-house pilot performance testing has been conducted to date, demonstrating high lithium recoveries and thousands of cycles of sorbent life with no degradation.

Material is sourced from the Upper Rhine Valley lithium brine field – Europe’s largest lithium resource – where Vulcan has proven the absorption-type direct lithium extraction (A-DLE) production process can be successfully applied.

The A-DLE method represents 10% of global lithium production today.
