Slide 8: Market Response is Dramatic
Market Response is Dramatic • The EV transition is no longer a concept, it is well underway and accelerating. Mn Reference: CIC energiGUNE -8-
Slide 9: Battery Technologies Should Favour Manganese
Battery Technologies Should Favour Manganese • A period of strong growth for battery technologies • Mineral supply constraints will WE ARE HERE influence technology decisions. • This will result in higher manganese cathodes to facilitate rapid growth. • Early mover status a strong advantage for E25.
Slide 10: If not manganese, then what?
If not manganese, then what? Global mined cobalt output (Kt) • Manganese is the cheapest, most 58% by 2040 abundant of the NMC cathode percentage of new vehicles that will be EV or hybrid 54 million materials (Ni,Mn,C). EV passenger sales • Nickel and cobalt have supply by 2040 constraints, manganes
Slide 11: If not manganese, then what?
If not manganese, then what? • OEMs including VW, Tesla and Stellantis have announced Manganese: moves to high manganese 17% of Material 2% of Cost cathodes. (NMC 622) • High manganese means better energy density and lower cost. • Transition will require large volumes of high purity manganese sulpha
