MiningMonthly.com reports on MTM Critical Minerals obtaining exclusive global rights for Flash Joule Heating (FJH) technology from Rice University School of Engineering, aiming to revolutionise the extraction of rare earth elements and critical #minerals from ores and e-waste. Optimistic about the technology's potential, #CEO Lachlan Reynolds outlines the development needed, with a semi-commercial demonstration plant in collaboration with KnightHawk Engineering, Inc and a research partnership with Murdoch University underway.   #innovation #technology #sustainablemining #cleantech https://lnkd.in/gw4Ch9-C

Interesting analysis yesterday from Benchmark Mineral Intelligence on China’s decision to tighten graphite export controls to the US. Projects like NextSource Materials’ Molo mine are vital to diversifying supply chains and ensuring supply for energy transition technlology remains continuously available to manufacturers across the globe. #graphite #energytransition #batterymaterials

I just published a very topical company report on KoBold Metals, a leading emerging growth company at the intersection of #AI and #ClimateTech. Mineral deposits of the future, essential for energy transition, will require a technology-enabled approach to exploration, which plays to KoBold's strength. Report includes chock-full of relevant data and highlights key challenges, trends and investment ideas. Do continue to stay in conversation with your comments and questions. #minerals #venturecapital #lithium #copper #electricvehicles #battery #cleanenergy #pollution #privatecompanies #climatechangeact

Surge Battery Metals (TSXV: NILI) said that its flagship lithium project in Nevada is host to the highest-grade US clay resource, containing 4.7 million tonnes (inferred) of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) grading 2,839 parts per million (ppm) lithium. This resource estimate was the first ever released on the Nevada North lithium project (NNLP). It was calculated using a base-case lithium cut-off grade of 1,250 ppm and metrics derived from available information for deposits similar to that at NNLP. https://lnkd.in/dqvKCqME

Over 7,500 tonnes of Lithium were produced in 2023 but, according to assessments by Benchmark, less than half was battery-grade. For this reason, and the increasing sophistication of lithium battery technology, it is anticipated that Lithium metal production will be a critical bottleneck for lithium battery cells. As we move through the completion of our Pre-Feasibility Study and into mine permitting at Falchani, the battery-grade material that the project is capable of producing without the need for additional refining becomes a significant advantage.

Benchmark uncoated spherical purified graphite (USPG) prices tick down by 1.2% in March 2024 after three months of stability. Supply and demand of material remained mostly balanced in late 2023 and early 2024 as sellers resisted further price decreases. Meanwhile, feedstock prices had also exhibited stability, enforcing stable USPG prices. In the latest March 2024 assessment, Benchmark has seen supply edge ahead of demand, and feedstock costs soften slightly, leading to this marginal decrease in USPG prices.

GreenTech Metals (ASX:GRE) kicks off a high-powered FLEM survey at Whundo Copper, targeting deeper mineralized zones. Results expected in January, with a 4,000m drill campaign starting this month. Stay tuned. #GreenTechMetals #WhundoCopper #ExplorationUpdate Read the fulll announcement here: https://hubs.li/Q02_crfJ0 https://hubs.li/Q02_cyK90

#MitsubishiMaterials has published “WITH MATERIALS” Vol. 11, its corporate communication magazine. The theme of this autumn issue features “Evolving Copper”. This volume focuses on “enhancing the supply of high-performance materials and products”. A panel discussion with employees from three production sites, in which participants discuss ways to improve cooperation between departments and sites, is also included in this magazine. The magazine covers the following contents and projects: - build trusting relationships with customers and expand sales of new products overseas - increase productivity through accelerated drilling in response to the demands of the mining industry -  the secret of “sintering copper bonding material”, which is ideal for attaching power semiconductors due to its high electrical and thermal conductivity and high melting point. Follow the link below to view “WITH MATERIALS.” We hope you find it informative. https://lnkd.in/ef8yHx8F   #copper #copperalloys #cleanenergy #sustainability #environment #mining #transformation #decarbonisation #biodiversity #decarbonization #climatechange #co2neutral #carbonfootprint #carbonneutral #emobility
