Around half of the world’s cobalt exports originate from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), while China accounts for nearly half of its imports. This concentrated geographic dependency presents both risks and opportunities for this valuable material. 🌍 While cobalt remains essential for EV batteries, some manufacturers are beginning to explore cobalt-free alternatives.
