Remember US Ambassador Kennedy giving the keynote address at the Paydirt Minerals Conference in March?
[revisit her address here]
She said of EXIM:
… “EXIM Bank has worked hard to redefine criteria to expand its cooperation with EFA (Export Finance Australia) and is looking for new projects in Australia.
For example, last month EXIM issued a $600 million Letter of Interest to Australian Strategic Minerals to finance US content and services at ASM’s Dubbo project.
EXIM has already signed a Letter of Interest with Liontown and hopefully another WA project will be next. I have told EXIM Chair Lewis that Perth needs to be the first stop on her upcoming trip…”

I don’t know if she made it over to Perth, but from that AFR report last week plus the breakfast date between Graham and the US Consul and US Assistant Secretary earlier this year, AVL is clearly on the US radar.
…AND those comments on discussions at the Diggers & Dealers plus this new hub seems to point at the fact there will also be some keen interest from Export Finance Australia?
(ie now the ‘one stop’ financing hub has been established, they’ll want to promote it with some big news?*
(subject to EPA approval?)
