Brazil is set to become a global power in lithium, a Sigma Lithium Corp executive told Reuters, after the South American country opened up its market for a mineral that is a crucial component of the electric car industry. Ana Cabral-Gardner's remarks came as the Brazilian government on Wednesday published an executive order loosening rules on lithium exports, saying the move could bring in more than 15 billion reais ($2.81 billion) in investments by 2030.
