EV Demand Caused Global Cobalt Production to Hit Record High in 2021<\/h1>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]

The global production of cobalt hit a record high of 170,000 tonnes in 2021 according to preliminary data released by the US Geological Survey (USGS), a 20% increase from 142,000 tonnes produced in 2020.<\/p>\n

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) continued to be the world\u2019s leading producer of mined cobalt, supplying over 70% of global cobalt mine production, whilst China continued to be the world\u2019s leading producer of refined cobalt. China was also the largest consumer of the rare metal, with over 80% of the consumption being used by the rechargeable battery industry. <\/p>\n

CEO Benedikt Sobotka of mining company Eurasian Resources Group (ERG) noted that the price of cobalt increased by 119% in 2021 and could spike higher in the coming year, due to the increased demand from the EV market and widespread consumer adoption of sustainable EVs. <\/p>\n\n\n
