Lithium prices in China fell sharply after the Guangzhou Futures Exchange curbed speculative trading and CATL planned to restart production at its lithium mine. The most-active lithium carbonate contract dropped 9% to 91,020 yuan per metric ton. GFEX increased transaction fees and limited daily open positions for non-futures company members. CATL's Jianxiawo mine, which can produce 46,000 tons of lithium carbonate annually, is set to resume production after a suspension since August.
