The S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) is giving investors something of a relieving recovery from yesterday's carnage so far this Tuesday. At the time of writing, the ASX 200 has put on an encouraging 0.71% that takes the index to just over 7,015 points.

But let's dive a little deeper into these gains by checking out the shares currently at the top of the ASX 200's share trading volume charts, according to investing.com.

The 3 most traded ASX 200 shares by volume this Tuesday

Core Lithium Ltd (ASX: CXO)

First up today is ASX 200 lithium stock Core Lithium. So far during this trading session, a sizeable 14.25 million shares have bounced around the share markets. There's been nothing new out of Core today.

The company did announce a new termination date with electric vehicle company Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) yesterday. But it's more likely that today's volumes have been sparked by the company's 2.6% rise to $1.385 a share so far.

Pilbara Minerals Ltd (ASX: PLS)

Next up this Tuesday, we have fellow ASX 200 lithium share Pilbara Minerals. This battery metals producer has had a notable 21.65 million of its shares trade hands as it currently stands. We haven't heard anything out of Pilbara today either.

So we can only assume this volume is the result of the movements of the Pilbara share price itself. The lithium stock has gained a healthy 2.29% so far today after yesterday's 1.7% drop to $3.57 a share.

Paladin Energy Ltd (ASX: PDN)

Finally this Tuesday we have ASX 200 uranium share Paladin Energy. So far today, a chunky 25.9 million Paladin shares have found a new ASX home. This also seems to be a consequence of a meaningful share price appreciation.

In Paladin's case, the company is enjoying a 5.84% boost to 81.5 cents a share. As my Fool colleague went into earlier today, these gains, which are reflected across the ASX uranium space, seem to be coming down to a number of positive developments for uranium in recent days.
