?? Securing Critical Metals for a Resilient Future ?? Today, China’s export ban on gallium, germanium, and antimony to the US comes into effect, underscoring the urgent need for diversified and sustainable supply chains. These materials are critical for technologies ranging from semiconductors to renewable energy. At MTM Critical Metals, we're addressing this challenge head-on. Our innovative Flash Joule Heating (FJH) technology is unlocking new pathways to recover critical metals like gallium and germanium from waste streams, offering a sustainable and strategic solution. This development highlights why our work is more important than ever. As the global landscape shifts, we remain committed to enabling supply independence and driving innovation in critical metals recovery. ??

Last week, our very own Matthew M., Sr. Program Manager at Lyten, took the stage at the #BGSUSA Battery Gigafactory Conference in Nashville to deliver an insightful presentation on “Factory Design Considerations for Different Battery Chemistries.” Matt highlighted how our recently announced Lyten gigafactory https://lnkd.in/gR2F9xzb in North Reno will be producing lithium-sulfur batteries—a groundbreaking alternative to traditional lithium-ion chemistries. Lyten’s #LithiumSulfur cells eliminate the need for Nickel, Manganese, and Cobalt, enabling: - An independent supply chain—key materials are sourced locally - A dramatically reduced carbon footprint—over 65% lower than traditional lithium-ion batteries. We’re proud of Matt’s contribution to the conference and our collective mission to build a cleaner, greener future! #EVBatteries #Sustainability #Innovation #BatteryTech #Gigafactory #Lyten #BGSUSA

As the world moves to reduce dependence on foreign supply chains, our technology is both geopolitically relevant and economically competitive. With 48 global patents and a waste-free process, Nano One is decoupling LFP production from traditional supply chain constraints. The One-Pot process reduces costs by 30%, uses 80% less energy, and enables localized, high-volume production. We are well-positioned as a key player in the global shift toward localized and sustainable battery production, offering investors a timely opportunity to tap into the rapidly growing LFP battery market through Nano One. ??

China currently controls more than 95% of the global LFP/LMFP materials and battery production. The Chinese have adopted lower-cost LFP, streamlined its supply-chain and developed technologies (blade cells, and cell-to-pack designs) allowing them to produce EVs at lower costs than their American and European competitors focused on NMC technology (more expensive and less permissive cell format and pack design). Americans and Europeans, to protect their automotive industry, have implemented tariff barriers or quotas on the import of EVs, batteries, and raw materials for cathodes and anodes made in China. Several American and European OEMs are now turning to LFP/LMFP batteries to lower the cost of their low-and mid-range EVs, either by purchasing LFP batteries directly from China, or through partnerships with Chinese cell and pack manufacturers for production outside China, using some Chinese resources (e.g. FePO4, a precursor to the manufacturing of LFP and LMFP). China is about to implement an export ban on the manufacturing technologies around LFP and LMFP, including FePO4 and lithium precursors. China is positioning itself to exert a global monopoly on LFP/LMFP materials and batteries. Consequently, the American and European industries (EV and energy storage) become excessively dependent on China and its control on price and supply. The solution is to establish a competitive LFP/LMFP production capacity outside of China, with a supply chain of raw materials also available outside of China. This is what IgnisLithium’s technology offers. www.ignislithium.com

I will moderate the panel discussion on how to accelerate the construction of a secure and resilient key resource supply system at Li-ION BATTERY EUROPE 2024 on Thursday, October 10, in #Brussels. Join me and the esteemed panellists Andrea Di Masi of SQM, Mirco Wojnarowicz of Rock Tech Lithium, Anne Oxley of Brazilian Nickel, Tom Fairlie of Cobalt Institute, and Florian Anderhuber of Euromines. The discussion will be around #supply and #demand projections considering #emerging technologies in the #battery chemistries, achieving supply chain #resiliency within the context of #policy development, commodity #prices and #investment/financing options, #circulareconomy and the importance of strategic #initiatives and #partnerships throughout the?system. I look forward to an insightful conversation and seeing you there! https://lnkd.in/dd_GG3PY #LiBE2024 #PanelDiscussion #SecureSupplyChain

Ferroglobe is securing a key material for energy transition—learn how they're planning for the future. Ferroglobe is a global leader in the production of silicon metal and ferroalloys based on silicon and manganese. Marco Levi, CEO of Ferroglobe PLC, explains how the company is strategically navigating the energy transition, from high-purity silicon production to a vertically integrated supply chain. "We will continue to evaluate our operating practices to adjust capacity in line with demand changes and will consider relocating production to areas with lower costs if necessary."

??Last week, REC Silicon signed an agreement to supply Sila Nanotechnologies, Inc. with high purity silane gas. Both companies have operations in Moses Lake, an emerging US hub for silicon anodes. ?? Silane gas is a key component of many next-generation silicon anode materials. By 2032, supply of silicon anode materials derived from silane gas is forecast by Benchmark Mineral Intelligence to rise 650% and their market share of the silicon-containing anode market to reach 10%. ?? “There is a lot of innovation in different engineered silicon anode active materials to improve performance and stability. Of these, materials that nano-deposit silicon inside the pores of a scaffold structure, or grown nanowires, are a leading technology being pursued globally.” - Rory McNulty, Product Director (New Technology) at Benchmark.

At Voyager Ventures, we're investing in advanced technologies to help rebuild America's strategic supply chains. The recent export restrictions on gallium, germanium, and antimony highlight why this space matters. These strategic materials are essential for semiconductors and emerging technologies, and potential future restrictions on graphite, rare earth elements, and other critical minerals pose additional risks to America's industrial base. We see a clear path forward through strategic investments in domestic production, alternative materials, and innovative technologies that strengthen American competitiveness. https://lnkd.in/gzFhBM6k #CriticalMinerals #AmericanManufacturing #SupplyChainResilience
