CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING EXPLORATION TARGETS The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature; there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration work will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource.
What we do Electric Vehicles Ethical and fully Batteries traceable minerals for the electric revolution Minerals
How we do it Our focus is to explore and develop several nickel-cobalt- copper projects in Europe to supply raw material critical to the expanding electric vehicle battery market. This makes us the foundation of the battery value chain.
The Electric Revolution (EV) is happening right now • By 2040, 500 million passanger EVs on the road and plus 40 million commercial EVs • 57 percent of all passenger vehicle sales and +30 percent of the global passanger vehicle fleet will be electric in 2040 • The whole of the transportation sector will be electrified in the next decades, including cars, buses,trucks, ferries and airplanes (Source: Bloomberg New Energy Finance , Electric vehicle outlook 2019)
The Electric Revolution • Annual lithium-ion battery demand for WORLD: MARKET LI-ION BATTERIES BY END USE (GWH) EVs grow rapidly • Battery cell manufacturing capacity will pass 1TWh by 2025 (Source: Bloomberg NEF) Source: Roskill
The Electric Revolution • Raw material such as nickel, cobalt and copper most expensive part of a battery • Nickel and cobalt demand is growing fast • Demand for battery grade nickel forecast to increase up to 10x in 10 years Source: Vale
Ethical and sustainability issues • Majority of all battery minerals extracted outside Europe • Pollutions due to lack of control and old methods • Child labour and poor working conditions • Lithium mining in Congo compared to blood diamonds
EU and the electric revolution – two main drivers 1. Geopolitically important to focus on raw material sourcing within EU Despite major automotive industry only 2 percent of batteries needed in EU are produced in the region 2. Sustainability focus driving local production and sourcing of raw material To achieve EU goal to be climate neutral 2050 – EU commission says Europe to be the global leader in sustainable battery production (Source: According to EU commission strategic plan on raw materials for battery applications)
With this in mind – our Vision is very clear
Eurobattery Minerals Vision Help Europe to become self-sufficient in ethical and fully traceable battery minerals.
In EV batteries the following minerals are included • Nickel • Cobalt • Copper • Lithium • Manganese • Rare earth elements
Our primary focus: Ni-Co-Cu • Nickel • Cobalt • Copper
