Thanks again for sharing this latest article, my favourite bit was,



The published greenhouse gas study by ERM examined the potential greenhouse gas production from the entire mining cycle at Manono.

Consideration included emissions from initial land clearing through to mining and processing of the lithium, tin and tantalum ores through the concentrate and sulphate plants and onward transportation for export.

The use of hydroelectric power, electric vehicles, fuel cells and utilising existing rail to port has dramatically reduced AVZ’s proposed greenhouse gas output and may serve as a blueprint for other developing operations across the globe.

With demand for lithium-ion batteries on the rise and AVZ looking to exceed international environmental standards at its developing Manono operation, the company is likely to continue to attract more than a few admiring glances as it powers towards production in Africa’s DRC.
