I think overall that the deal with the Chinese is a good thing. The Chinese were already very involved, the leadership of our company is rock solid, and it appears that the leadership of Pengxin Group (Zhao Bai Jiang) is solid as well. Robert has a long history of working with the Chinese...
June 12, 2017 Ivanhoe Capital welcomes support for a new era of cooperation with China’s state-owned enterprises on ‘green-development’ initiatives in mining, energy storage and new-age strategic metals BEIJING, CHINA — Robert M. Friedland, Chairman of Ivanhoe Capital Corporation, said today he welcomes and respects a new pledge of support by the head of a prominent Chinese government agency to encourage China’s state-owned enterprises to work closely with Ivanhoe Capital and its associated companies to help build innovative, resource-efficient and environmentally-friendly enterprises that can contribute to the advancement of China’s economic transformation. Mr. Friedland said he was honoured to meet with Xiao Yaqing, Chairman of China’s Stateowned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (SASAC), on June 8 to hear firsthand Mr. Xiao’s leadership vision for expanded roles that could be filled by state-owned enterprises drawing on resources available through cooperative partnership initiatives. Notably, Mr. Xiao and Mr. Friedland discussed mutual cooperation opportunities in ‘greendevelopment’ projects that could be structured to further contribute to economic successes that have been realized through state initiatives based on a concept originally introduced by Chinese President Xi Jinping. Mr. Xiao said that SASAC supports long-term, close cooperation between China’s central state-owned enterprises and Ivanhoe Capital in a variety of programs, including mining of specific metals required for green technology, energy storage and clean energy, as well as related technology research and development. “Since my first visit to China more than 30 years ago, I have watched and admired the nation’s dedication to broad economic development – a goal it has achieved more rapidly and on a greater scale than ever previously recorded in human history,” said Mr. Friedland. “This greatest uplift in economic performance, based substantially on the determination, skills and productivity of the Chinese people, also has helped to deliver major improvements in the living standard of its society. “Now there are excellent opportunities for our associated companies to work closely with China’s state-owned enterprises in introducing green-development technologies into China’s major One Belt, One Road international trade and investment initiative,” Mr. Friedland added. “The future demand for metals will be influenced by increasing demand for clean air and water, especially in urban areas, which requires new-age, strategic metals such as vanadium, scandium, cobalt, nickel, new aluminum alloys and especially copper.” 2 Technologies, products and projects of relevant companies associated with Ivanhoe Capital that Mr. Friedland outlined to Mr. Xiao included: China-based Pu Neng, which is employing world-leading technology in its energy storage system based on vanadium redox batteries that already have proven their reliability at China's world-class State Grid Wind and Solar Energy Storage Demonstration Project in Zhangbei, Zhangjiakou City, in Hebei Province. Australia-based Clean TeQ, which is developing one of the world’s largest and highestgrade sources of scandium, nickel and cobalt. Nickel and cobalt sulphate from Syerston will be supplied to the lithium-ion battery market; scandium oxide will be used to produce lighter and stronger aluminum alloys for aerospace and automotive markets. USA-based I-Pulse is commercializing proprietary green technology that safely compresses and releases small amounts of electrical energy in billionths of a second to create massive power outputs. I-Pulse’s technology has the proven ability to enhance oilwell production and increase reserves; detect hidden mineral deposits and hydrocarbon reservoirs; discover underground water; and shape and assemble metals to previously unachievable degrees of precision and energy efficiency. Canada-based Ivanhoe Mines, which is developing the tier one Kamoa-Kakula copper project in the Democratic Republic of Congo with Zijin Mining, one of China’s leading mining companies.
