Battery Metals at Benchmark Giga USA 2025 | Patriot Battery Metals, Jindalee & Century Lithium

In this episode, I attend the Benchmark Giga USA 2025 event in Washington, DC, interviewing key lithium industry experts: Iola Hughes (Benchmark Minerals), Ken Brinsden (Patriot Battery Metals: $PMET), Ian Rodger (Jindalee Lithium: $JLL), and Bill Willoughby (Century Lithium: $LCE).

We discuss the cautious yet optimistic sentiment among industry insiders, highlighting robust demand drivers such as stationary energy storage, hybrid vehicles, and technological advancements in battery systems. Despite current oversupply and policy uncertainties, especially related to tariffs and incentives, there's significant focus on enhancing domestic lithium production and processing capabilities in the U.S.

Retail investors should note the experts’ views on the resilience of the lithium market amid geopolitical and legislative risks and consider which market indicators signal future growth.

Stay tuned as I continue bringing detailed updates and insights directly from industry leaders shaping the lithium market.
