Euro Manganese Joins the Global Battery Alliance
In anticipation of supplying high-purity manganese to European battery manufacturers, our European battery metals Investment, Euro Manganese (ASX:EMN), has joined the Global Battery Alliance.
The Global Battery Alliance is a public-private partnership which brings together more than 100 businesses, governments, academics, industry actors, international and non-governmental organisations to promote a sustainable battery supply chain.
EMN has some unique advantages which recently appointed CEO Matthew James outlined in today’s announcement:
- EMN is the only sizeable European manganese resource
- Fully traceable
- Low carbon footprint
- Waste-to-value recycling and remediation (i.e EMN is going to use tailings to produce the high purity manganese which has additional environmental benefits)
What’s next for EMN? Today’s announcement said that a Life Cycle Assessment is due to be released shortly, and we expect this to be positive in terms of improving EMN’s sustainability bona fides.
