Abstract
This report presents an overview of the market of lithium and its compounds in
the CIS. The report was prepared on the basis of the study and analysis of
data of the Federal State Statistics Service of Russia (FSSS RF), Federal
Customs Service of Russia (FCS), official statistics of domestic rail
transportation of Russian Federation, as well as InfoMine data. The report
consists of seven chapters, contains 89 pages, including 31 tables, 15 figures
and 2 Appendices.
The first chapter is devoted to the mineral resource base and production of
lithium products abroad. It presents data on world production of lithium
resources, prices for lithium products. The chapter describes company -
largest producers of lithium compounds and raw materials.
The second chapter is devoted to the mineral resource base of lithium in the
Russian Federation and countries of CIS. A brief description of the balance
deposits of lithium and promising raw material objects is given.
The third chapter analyses the foreign trade operations in lithium and its
compounds in 2000-2010. It presents data on exports and imports of the
products, estimates regional pattern of the supply.
The fourth chapter contains information about the production of lithium and
lithium compounds in Russia in 2000-2010, the main producers, GOSTs (state
standards) and specifications for manufactured lithium products.
The fifth chapter is devoted to the consumption of lithium and its compounds
in Russia. The chapter describes the enterprise-consumers of lithium products,
presents calculation of the supply-demand balance of lithium and its compounds
in 2001-2010.
In the sixth chapter of the report the structure of consumption of lithium and
its compounds in industry is presented.
The seventh chapter is devoted to description of programs to develop Russian
lithium industry and new projects.
The eighth chapter of the report contains forecast of production and
consumption of lithium and its compounds in Russia up to 2017.
In the Appendices, contact information on producers and consumers of lithium
and its compounds is given.
