Abstract: Engaged in many strategic emerging industries，the demand for lithium carbonate is increasing，as well as the expansion of the international trade network for the mineral product.Based on the complex network model built based on the relevant theory，the paper has calculated and analyzed such indicators as degree，weighted degree，clustering coefficient and modularity，etc.using international lithium carbonate trade data from 2005 to 2014 in UNcomtrade database.The analysis shows that the countries and the number of the countries involved in the international trade remain stable since 2005，and the trade ties among these countries are relatively close.Three countries，including German，China and U.S play very important role within the whole network.Influenced by subprime crisis in 2007 and Greek debt crisis in 2012，the trade volume of lithium carbonate decreased.Globalization of lithium carbonate is currently speeding and regional collectivization becoming more noticeable.
