two miners with a $100 billion-plus valuation (and only just at the end of 2024) spent $6.7 billion to buy into lithium in 2024 just as its Jadar project in Serbia was thrown a lifeline. Whether the project goes into production isstill in dispute, much like theprospects for lithium. ...
The mining world was pulled in all directions in 2023: the collapse of lithium prices, furious M&A activity, a bad year for cobalt and nickel, Chinese critical mineral moves, gold’s new record, and state intervention in mining on a scale not seen in decades. Here’s a roundup of some ...
The initiatives funded by the four laws are so varied and sprawling — from building bridges and tunnels, to making electric cars more affordable, to bankrolling battery factories and lithium mines, to stringing broadband lines and removing lead drinking water pipes, to removing carbon dioxide from...
Copper, used in wires and other applications, and lithium, essential for batteries, will require the most significant number of new mines. Manganese production would need to increase more than fourfold to meet anticipated demand. Not an Easy Task Building new mines is one of the biggest challenge...
