Lithium miners Orocobre and Galaxy Resources merged this week in a A$4 billion deal to create the world's fifth largest global lithium chemicals company.
The deal was highlighted by Mining Audiences Manager Michael McCrae on Kitco Roundtable, which was recorded on Friday with Kitco correspondent Paul Harris, editor Neils Christensen and special guest Stephen Twyerould, CEO of Excelsior Mining.
McCrae noted the deal follows last months SPAC deal for deep sea miner DeepGreen, recently renamed The Metals Company, which went public in a $2.9 billion deal.
