American Resources Corporation (NASDAQ: AREC) shares a milestone
move: India's largest producer of sustainable critical minerals
LOHUM Cleantech Ltd has signed an MOU with U.S. pioneers in
modular, adaptable, and circular magnet-grade & battery-grade
mineral processing technology - ReElement Technologies Corporation
and American Metals LLC. The MOU marks the companies' initiation of
a Joint Venture for establishing United States' first fully
integrated battery recycling, repurposing, and critical material
production facility. The 15.5 GWh facility will be set up with an
initial investment of US$30 Million, and lead to the creation of
250 green jobs. The partnership is expected to initially supply
over 315,000 electric vehicles annually with continued growth based
on feedstock availability.
The integrated end-to-end battery & critical minerals
lifecycle management facility will host the entire value chain from
battery cell testing and segregation for second-life energy storage
applications to recycling, mineral refining, engineered materials,
and battery-grade products. The facility will produce critical
materials with purity levels greater than 99.5%, which can then
circulate in the U.S. domestic battery ecosystem.
The initial operating location will be at the Marion Advanced
Technology Center in Indiana, and expand to other locations as
determined by the joint venture parties. The joint venture will
create a domestic ecosystem of recycled, high-purity lithium for
developing North America's lithium-based battery manufacturing
supply chain. The facility powered by LOHUM’s and ReElement’s
capabilities will be able to eliminate a significant amount of
capital expenditure, physical footprint, environmental impact, and
associated operational expenditure needed for the separation and
purification of battery materials.
Addressing the development, Rajat Verma, Founder & CEO of
LOHUM expressed:- “As LOHUM expands its presence in North America,
we welcome this opportunity to partner with ReElement and American
Metals, companies that share LOHUM's goals of 'making battery
materials last forever'. We believe the joint venture will be
instrumental in building resilient critical material supply chains
in the U.S. that can sustain themselves through circularity. This
is an inspiring development in U.S.-India technology collaboration
through market entities.”
Speaking on the joint venture, Mark Jensen, Chairman of American
Metals and ReElement Technologies, stated- “We have been working
with LOHUM to figure out how to leverage our unique capabilities
and world-leading technologies at ReElement along with the
innovative and scaled up approach to critical mineral’s recycling
and refining that LOHUM has established. We are pleased that
ReElement and LOHUM are partnering in a joint venture to leverage
both ReElement’s and LOHUM’s vast experience in recycling
lithium-ion batteries.”
