SQM’s lithium sales were down quarter on quarter at the end of September 2018 because of delays in production expansion and stronger prices for iodine and lithium.
Chilean lithium and iodine producer Sociedad Quimica y
Minera de Chile (SQM) increased its revenue from lithium and

in September 2018, compared with $465.2 million in the
corresponding months of the year before.
