NEW YORK, Nov. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — The United States is continuous to construct its home EV battery provide chain. The Biden administration has awarded grants totaling $2.8 billion for growing electrical car (EV) battery manufacturing amenities in the United States, because the nation works to scale back its reliance on Asia. President Joe Biden has set a purpose of electrifying half of all new autos offered by 2030. Demand for important minerals important for EV batteries is predicted to skyrocket within the subsequent decade due to elevated EV gross sales, which Biden is asking “one of the most significant economic transitions since the Industrial Revolution.” According to the US Department of Energy, the authorized initiatives will finally provide sufficient lithium to produce 2 million EVs, sufficient graphite to produce 1.2 million EVs, and sufficient nickel to produce 400,000 EVs per yr. Albemarle (NYSE:ALB), Talon Metals (TSX:TLO) (OTCPK:TLOFF), and American Battery Technology Co (OTCQB:ABML) are among the many firms which have obtained funding. Meanwhile, FE Battery Metals Corp. (CSE:FE) (OTCQB:FEMFD) and Sayona Mining Limited (OTCQB:SYAXF) are driving the electrical future with their lithium mining initiatives.
FE Battery Metals (CSE:FE) (OTCQB:FEMFD) is a Canadian mineral exploration firm with a give attention to finding, buying, and investigating mineral prospects in North America for industrial, base, and treasured metals.
On November 8, FE Battery Metals introduced outcomes from drill gap LC22-39 from the Phase 2 exploratory drill program at its 100% owned Augustus Lithium Property in Quebec, Canada. According to the outcomes, drill gap LC21-39 intersected three lithium pegmatites, with the principle 7.3 m broad pegmatite zone averaging 1.54% lithium oxide (Li2O) at 188.7m drilled depth.
The drill program relies on the historic and 2021 Phase 1 exploration information in addition to the corporate’s floor trenching and sampling program outcomes. Several historic drill gap collars had been additionally positioned on the Property, which helped within the present program’s location and orientation of drill holes. A B-20 drill rig is deployed for this work, which may drill up to a 1,000-meter-deep gap. To date a complete of 42 drill holes with a cumulative core drilling of over 7,500 m has been accomplished on the Property.
In October, FE Battery Metals announced the outcomes of drill holes LC21-33 to 37 at Augustus. Among the highlights of the outcomes was drill gap LC21-35 intersecting an 11.20-meter-wide zone with 0.91% lithium oxide (Li2O) at 146 meters, together with a 5 meter zone with 1.03% Li2O at 146 meters and three.2 meter with 1% Li2O at 154 meters. This drill gap additionally has a decrease seven meters broad zone with 0.54% Li2O at 165 meters drilled depth and several other different smaller intercepts with variable lithium grades.
The firm additionally just lately introduced a corporate restructuring to spin off belongings associated to its present exploration properties positioned in Quebec and Ontario right into a wholly-owned subsidiary. According to the corporate, every FE Battery Metals shareholder will obtain one widespread share of Spinco for each post-consolidation share held.

Albemarle (NYSE:ALB) subsidiary, Albemarle Lithium UK Limited, has completed the $200 million acquisition of Guangxi Tianyuan New Energy Materials. In September 2021, a definitive settlement was introduced to purchase Tianyuan. Tianyuan’s operations embody a lithium conversion plant with a designed annual conversion capability of up to 25,000 metric tonnes LCE and the power to produce battery-grade lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide. Albermarle has received a virtually $150 million grant from the US Department of Energy. The grant funding is meant to cowl a portion of the estimated value of constructing a brand new commercial-scale lithium concentrator facility within the US on the firm’s Kings Mountain, North Carolina.
Talon Metals (TSX:TLO) (OTC Pink:TLOFF) introduced that it has updated its mineral useful resource estimate for its Tamarack Nickel challenge in Minnesota. The complete indicated mineral useful resource is estimated to be 8.56 million tonnes grading 1.73% nickel plus by-products (2.34% NiEq) containing 148,000 tonnes of nickel. Compared to Talon‘s earlier indicated mineral useful resource estimate (PEA #3), this represents a 98% enhance in contained nickel within the indicated class. The complete inferred useful resource estimate is now round 8.46 million tonnes grading 0.83% nickel plus by-products (1.19% NiEq) containing 70,000 tonnes of nickel, as well as to the whole indicated mineral useful resource. Talon Metals’ wholly-owned subsidiary, Talon Nickel (USA) LLC has been selected as a recipient of President Joe Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law’s first set of initiatives to increase home manufacturing of batteries for EVs and {the electrical} grid, in addition to supplies and elements presently imported from different international locations.
