Shares in Australian-listed lithium miners have rallied on the strength of the rising price of lithium carbonate and growing demand for lithium ion batteries. General Mining Corporation’s share price has risen by 1,000 per cent over the last 12 months, while Pilbara Minerals has gained about 1,200 per cent since mid-2014. Citigroup expects both demand for lithium carbonate and the price of the commodity to keep rising beyond 2016.
