Building the most sustainable (and scalable) battery materials process

Our hydrometallurgy facility, the first commercial-scale nickel "mine" to open in the United States in a decade, not only recycles battery manufacturing scrap into raw nickel and cobalt but also stands as the only commercial-scale source of lithium supply to come online in the U.S. in decades. This achievement exemplifies our commitment to zero-waste and circular economy principles, showcasing our ability to produce critical battery materials locally and sustainably. Unlike traditional mining projects, which often take more than ten years to become operational, we built and activated our facility in less than a quarter of that time.
Our proprietary hydrometallurgy process significantly enhances resource recovery, successfully reclaiming 95% of lithium from scrap battery materials. The recovered nickel, lithium, and other metals are purified into intermediates or converted into chemicals for the production of high-grade cathode active materials. This process not only supports our upcoming cathode plant but also aligns with our strategic goals to minimize environmental impact and bolster domestic supply chains.
