A new partnership between the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s Argonne National Laboratory and local miner Talon Metals Corp. is looking to extract iron from nickel mine tailings in a bid to increase domestic battery production. Speaking with Mining Magazine, Albert Lipson, group leader, separations and bioprocessing at Argonne said: "Talon is trying to set up a nickel mine in the US. And what they find is that they have alot of iron [waste] that they can use in LFPs, which contain iron and need a high purity source of iron. Essentially, the goal of the project is to figure out how to get that iron instead of it being waste."

We are thrilled to announce that our recent exploration efforts have yielded exceptional results at one of our properties that have outlined four new zones with grades up to 27.9% Cg (carbon).. We collected total of 104 samples out of which: - 24 samples have results greater than 20% CG - 55 samples results greater than 10% CG - 71 samples results greater than 5% CG These findings significantly enhance the potential and value of the Ruisseau site, and we are excited about the opportunities this presents for future development. Our team is committed to continuing our work and maximizing the benefits of these promising results. Lomiko Metals #graphite #EV

Conifer Systems has created a solution that can tackle the specific challenges that come with high-volume, low-concentration ventilation air methane applications. The solution, called Aeros MineOx, is designed to provide high thermal efficiency and low pressure drop. It enables autothermal operation within the range of 0.2% to 1.2% methane concentration by volume. Aeros MineOx can be seamlessly integrated with existing mine shaft infrastructure, without disrupting normal mining operations. https://lnkd.in/dTXcGNX5

Another fantastic panel on #criticalminerals at the The Northern Miner Precious Metals Summit Conferences, LLC #Energy Transition Metals Summit in DC. Great insights from Abigail Hunter, Alex Jacquez, and Joseph S. on the efforts the US government and particularly the United States Department of Defense are taking to address this challenge. These efforts could be advanced by supporting promising projects by Moana Minerals Ltd , Ocean Minerals LLC, Cordoba Minerals Corp., Chilean Cobalt Corp ("C3") and EVelution Energy. Development and processing of #cobalt, #nickel, #manganese, #copper, and #rareearthelements will be crucial to ensuring US #nationalsecurity and economic competitiveness.

US House Passes Critical Minerals Consistency Act Congressman Juan Ciscomani of Arizona who sponsored the bill, explained that the legislation would ensure uniformity between the Department of Energy’s and U.S. Geological Survey’s critical minerals list. In detail, it stipulates that within 45 days of the Department of Energy adding a mineral, material, substance or element to its critical minerals list, the agency must also update its list. This, he noted, would help strengthen the domestic supply chain and include silicon carbide, silicon, electrical steel and Copper on the critical materials list.
