Another similar picture, IGO may be a very low-cost lithium producer benefiting from Greenbushes' exceptional ore grade, but it will still struggle if Li prices continue to slip lower.
Last week, IGO announced the sale of its Nova nickel operation in Western Australia to Global Lithium Resources (ASX: GL1) for just $7 million, comprising $3 million in cash, $2 million in GL1 shares and $2 million in deferred cash. The sale marks IGO's latest exit from nickel, following the divestment of its Forrestania operations, as CEO Ivan Vella continues to reposition the company towards lithium and copper through exploration and partnerships rather than acquisitions.
Nickel/lithium miner IGO was in the news yesterday following a fire at its Greenbushes lithium plant, although the company has since said production remains on track to meet FY26 guidance. Over the past year, IGO has been a classic “world-class asset, execution headache” story, which is unfortunately not an isolated theme across the ASX mining sector.
Nickel/lithium miner IGO reported an “ok” result last week, but its still losing money – covered Here. Again the stock looks interesting after retracing 18%, largely following the lithium price lower, while it’s not our top pick, further strength would not be a surprise.
IGO –5.1%: Still losing money although underlying EBITDA returned to the black. Balance sheet is good but hard to get too excited over this one.
IGO has endured a shocking few years after paying a crazy price for the nickel business Western Areas (WSA) in 2021, only to watch prices collapse.
IGO tumbled 14% on Wednesday following the CATL news, one of four stocks to end the day down 14% or more. The company delivered a disappointing 4Q result, including weak lithium production and softer cash flow.
Last month’s 4Q results were mixed, with strong performance from Nova Nickel project more than offset by weaker lithium production and softer cash flow. Disappointingly FY26 guidance points to a slower ramp-up at Greenbushes and elevated costs at Nova with the weaker-than-expected production guidance reflecting delays and ongoing ramp-up issues.
IGO -7.2%: 4Q results were mixed, with strong performance from Nova Nickel project more than offset by weaker lithium spodumene Greenbushes production and softer cash flow.
Yesterday saw IGO endure a sharp -6.7% pullback as lithium related names came under the hammer. However, IGO is a low-cost currently profitable producer which will benefit from further strength in lithium prices with a far higher degree of certainty than some of its peers.

IGO is a mining and exploration company based in Western Australia. Its primary asset is a minority stake in the Greenbushes lithium mine through a joint venture with Tianqi Lithium and Albemarle. Greenbushes is the world's lowest-cost hard rock lithium resource. IGO also has an interest in downstream processing through a 49% stake in the Kwinana lithium hydroxide refinery. Outside of lithium, IGO owns and operates the Nova nickel-copper-cobalt mine, which has a short remaining life.
