The S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) has shaken off the case of Mondayitis it came down with yesterday and is giving investors something to be thankful for so far on Tuesday.

At the time of writing, the ASX 200 has added a healthy 0.7% after steadily rising all day, raising the index to just under 7,190 points.

So let's delve deeper into these market moves by checking out the ASX 200 shares presently at the top of the share market's trading volume charts, according to investing.com.

The 3 most traded ASX 200 shares by volume this Tuesday

Core Lithium Ltd (ASX: CXO)

Our first ASX 200 share today is a familiar name in Core Lithium. This lithium producer has had a sizeable 14.19 million of its shares fly around the ASX so far this Tuesday. There's been no new announcements or news out of the company today.

So it is likely that this volume is being caused by the share price movements of the company itself. Core shares have been bouncing around quite a bit today, trading between $1.40 and $1.45 a share. Core Lithium is currently up 2.14% at $1.44 a share at present.

Pilbara Minerals Ltd (ASX: PLS)

Next up is another ASX 200 lithium share in Pilbara Minerals. The ASX has seen a hefty 15.82 million Pilbara shares find a new home today. We did get a notice out of Pilbara this afternoon, informing investors that a batch of escrowed shares will be released for trading on 1 December.

But it's more likely that the high volumes we are seeing are the result of the healthy share price gain Pilbara has enjoyed over today's session. The company is currently up a pleasing 3.46% at $4.94 a share.

South32 Ltd (ASX: S32)

Finally today we have ASX 200 mining share South32. A notable 18.6 million South32 shares have been bought and sold at this point of Tuesday's session. Again, it seems we have a share price movement to thank for these volumes.

South32 shares are on fire today. The mining giant has seen its stock rise a pleasing 3.25% to $3.98 a share. That comes after the company initially dipped down to $3.82 a share this morning just after open.
