5 Year Cobalt Price (US$/t)

Starting in January 2019, all major manufacturers operating in China (including Toyota and General Motors) have to meet minimum requirements for producing new-energy vehicles (NEV’s) such as plug-in hybrids and pure-battery electric vehicles. A complex Government equation requires that a sizeable portion of their production or imports must be green in 2019 with escalating goals thereafter (Boomberg Businessweek, Nov 2018).

DRC - 50% of the global resource, 64% of 2017 cobalt production, and forecast to be 80% of global cobalt production by 2025. Wood Mackenzie expects demand to triple by 2040 and forecasts the market will fall into deficit by 2024 (forbes.com, Oct 2018).

The anticipated surge in electric vehicle demand triggered an 82% increase in global exploration budgets for cobalt and lithium in 2018 with cobalt and lithium exploration budgets now up 500% from 2015 levels (S&P Global Market Intelligence, Nov 2018).
