The Jianxiawo mine is one of the largest lithium mines in China and the world.[1] The mine is located in Yichun prefectural city, Jiangxi province, southeast-central China. It produces about 46,000 tons of lithium carbonate yearly, which is equivalent to 3% of the world's produce of lithium as of 2025.[1]
Its closure in August 2025 due to expired permits caused lithium prices to spike as well as those of lithium mining companies.[1][2]
