Single-Source Coverage
  • Buenos Aires Times

    Rio Tinto Group announced that its full-year lithium output would be at the lower end of guidance due to heavy rainfall affecting its operations in Argentina, specifically the Olaroz and Fenix projects, and slowing progress at its Sal de Vida project. Despite this, the company's outlooks for copper production and iron ore sales remained unchanged, with copper output steady and iron ore sales marginally rising in the third quarter.
