Kingsland Minerals Limited (ASX:KNG) is proud to announce a significant milestone in the development of its Leliyn Graphite Project in the Northern Territory, marking a transformative year for the company. The recently completed maiden Mineral Resource Estimate has confirmed Leliyn as the largest graphite deposit in Australia, and one of the largest globally, with an inferred resource of over 194 million tonnes at 7.3% Total Graphitic Carbon (TGC). This represents a significant achievement for Kingsland, further positioning the company as a key player in the global supply of critical minerals. Throughout the year, we also achieved substantial progress in metallurgical test work, with flotation tests producing graphite concentrates with grades exceeding 94% TGC and recoveries of over 80%. These excellent results demonstrate Leliyn's potential to produce high-quality graphite for the rapidly growing lithium-ion battery market. Importantly, the test work has laid the foundation for further optimization and a bulk sample to produce purified spherical graphite, a key precursor for battery anodes. Looking ahead, we have planned additional drilling to upgrade the inferred resources and advance metallurgical testing to further refine our processing capabilities. These efforts will culminate in a scoping study to assess the economic viability of establishing a flake graphite production facility in the Northern Territory, marking a major step forward for the project. We extend our gratitude to our shareholders for their unwavering support during these challenging market conditions. With Leliyn’s excellent growth prospects and Kingsland’s strong position in the critical minerals space, we are excited to continue unlocking value for all stakeholders in the year ahead.

🔋Tin is essential for the anodes in sodium-ion batteries, a promising technology for the future of EVs. Projections indicate an additional 100,000 tonnes of tin will be needed by 2030 to support this emerging market. The major players in the tin industry, the smelters, are facing a significant challenge as traditional supply sources dwindle. Artisanal supplies from Southeast Asia are no longer sufficient, and the US strategic reserves have been depleted. With tin now back on the critical minerals list, there’s a clear need for investment in upstream mining projects. As the demand for tin continues to rise, Elementos is committed to addressing this growing demand and securing supply to meet future needs. #Elementos #ELT #tin #TinSupply #CriticalMinerals #SodiumIonBatteries #MiningIndustry #FutureTechnologies #EV #Sustainability #Innovation #batterymetals 

Minerals make the world go 'round, so to speak. Without them, we would not have access to the technologies and materials our industrial society relies upon. Mining processes are experiencing a period of digital transformation as companies focus both on increased production AND environmental protections. To keep the industrial and growing world functioning, the minerals industry must supply more minerals materials than ever while focusing on maintaining environmental responsibilities. Innovation is the only answer here, and it comes in the form of technologies, processes, and systems. If you're interested in staying updated on the minerals industry's ability to meet these goals, keep an eye on the IMII News page! We're always sharing informative blogs, resources, and project updates there. #Innovation #Sustainability #Mining #MiningIndustry #Minerals #FutureOfMining #MiningInnovation #MiningSafety #InnovationInMining

The UK-Brazil critical minerals seminar has sparked discussions on boosting Britain's role in the global critical minerals market as Brazil leads in niobium, graphite, and nickel. Experts urge a renewed focus on enhancing the UK's strategy.

Seabed mineral resources are essential for Japan, as the country has limited mineral deposits on land. Establishing a decarbonized method for smelting is also crucial, so that we are tackling environmental challenges with Microwaves while securing necessary resources.

Governments and societies are engrossed in a complex endeavor to reach agreement on what “sustainability” in energy and materials supply chains is all about, how it is to be measured and communicated and, most important, to whom. #energy #mining

Green Minerals: Enabling the green shift with marine minerals Copper is vital for the green energy transition, and as demand rises, companies are exploring the potential of marine minerals. The world is going through a major transition towards digitisation, electrification, and green energy. The major component going into all these subjects is copper: the metal that has the best electric conductivity, is easy to form, and is resilient for long-lasting applications. Copper has a high recycling rate, but copper’s demand will increase, and new reserves need to be added to the current reserves to ensure the future required stock. The last major copper discovery was made in 2018, and there will be a future squeeze on demand if the mining industry doesn’t manage to add to the reserve bank. The preliminary signs of the squeeze can be seen by looking at trading prices and the sudden plummeting of the treatment charge – not enough copper is being mined for it to be transformed into the final product.

https://lnkd.in/gyateEP4 Last week, Canada added high-purity iron ore to its Critical Minerals List. Australia has now recognised the profound "green iron" production and export opportunity, but is in competition with the Middle East, Canada, Brazil and others for the necessary investment that is being deployed globally now as our trading partners lock in their future decarbonised supply chains. Last year, Magnetite Mines made a comprehensive submission to government for the inclusion of magnetite (able to be concentrated into very high purity iron ore and necessary to make green iron) on to Australia's Critical Minerals List. Unfortunately, magnetite neither made the Critical Minerals List nor the new Strategic Materials List. This leaves it out of focus for government support, despite the infrastructure requirements and collaboration required to realise the economy-changing opportunity of green iron production and export. We encourage this to change as a result of the current Green Metals Industry Consultation process being coordinated by the Department of Industry, Science and Resources.

Kingsland Minerals Limited (ASX:KNG) is pleased to release its’ June 2024 quarterly report. The highlight this quarter was the production of commercial grade graphite concentrate, grading greater than 94% TGC (Total Graphitic Carbon). This result is an important milestone as it shows that Leliyn can produce a saleable product. Test-work is continuing and a larger sample of 150kg will be collected during the September quarter to produce a bulk concentrate sample for further test-work to produce battery grade spherical graphite. The positive metallurgical results justified an update of the Exploration Target for Leliyn and this now illustrates the considerable upside to the current Mineral Resource estimate. Leliyn is a globally significant graphite deposit. “This was a busy, productive quarter with excellent progress on the Leliyn Graphite Project. It was particularly pleasing to produce a graphite concentrate with a grade greater than 94% TGC. We are now looking forward to additional test-work to produce spherical graphite. The new Exploration Target re-positions Leliyn as one of the world’s largest graphite deposits. Each completed step is de-risking the project and positions us closer to our aim of producing quality graphite flake products and downstream processing of these products in Darwin.” Managing Director Richard Maddocks Bruno Seneque #KingslandMinerals #KNG #Graphite #Leliyn
