it's a big chunky buy.. might start to see this baby move now, the drop was massively overdone
What can we read into that buy then? My mind boggles when I see those amounts coming into a share. Makes me feel like a total peasant!
Buy wow :-)
top up,3g incoming
check out our [ j/vs ] they are going places to
what dose everybody want [ lithium cobalt ] it is a good share to be in
Back around where it should be and was manipulated after the last rns. Let's hope we start to see some value for us long termers.
Go on bnr like a phoenix from the ashes
[? ] look at your jv here lithium and cobalt all + from here a good share to be in [ with ev and battery storage ]
By Reuters Published: 10:18 EST, 12 February 2018 By Jan Harvey LONDON, Feb 12 (Reuters) - Makers of electric vehicle batteries will have to keep using scarce, expensive cobalt in their products for the foreseeable future despite a push towards higher nickel compositions, materials technology company Umicore said on Monday. Manufacturers have been trying to increase the proportion of nickel used in electric vehicle batteries to boost energy density, while reducing cobalt use to cut costs. While many electric car batteries contain equal proportions of nickel, cobalt and manganese, battery makers including South Korea's SK Innovation and LG Chem have recently announced plans to produce NCM 811 batteries - which contain 80 percent nickel, 10 percent cobalt and 10 percent manganese - this year. Umicore Chief Executive Marc Grynberg told a briefing that while the technology was evolving towards higher nickel loadings, it was not possible to design cobalt out of batteries. "If you increase the nickel proportion, you reduce the stability of the battery and so it has an impact on cycle life, the ability to charge it fast," he said. "Cobalt is the element that makes up for the lack of stability of nickel. There isn't a better element than nickel to increase energy density, and there isn't a better element than cobalt to make the stuff stable. So (while) you hear about designing out cobalt, this is not going to happen in the next three decades. It simply doesn't work." Belgium's Umicore, a leading supplier of materials for electric vehicle batteries, including cobalt, said last week that it had raised 892 million euros ($1.1 billion) in an equity placement to help fund investments in its fast-expanding rechargeable battery materials business. Cobalt prices have more than tripled in the last two years after projections of buoyant demand growth for electric cars led to increased consumption of metals used in their batteries, a mix that also typically includes lithium. More than half of annual mined supply of cobalt is sourced from Democratic Republic of Congo, which has been riven by two decades of conflict. In the near term, enough cobalt is being produced to meet demand from the electric vehicle industry, Grynberg said, with Umicore sourcing Congolese metal via a responsible supply agreement audited by PwC. In the longer term, recycled supply will be needed, he said. The company expects to ramp up recycling of spent electric vehicle batteries to "significant" levels in the next seven to nine years, when more feedstock returns to the market. "In 10 years' time it will still be relatively modest, but in 20 years' time it will be a significant proportion of our (usage)," he said. "If you look at a more mature market, like the market for catalysts that contain platinum group metals, about half of our supply is coming from recycling."
[CONSOLIDATION } of lithium and cobalt this is the next thing to come to the market as ev car makers scramble for lithium and cobalt
all the top car companies are looking for lithium and cobot some have 10 year contracts the new ev cars are driving the market the next thing will battery storage the lithium will be in great demand for this
the Chinese are becoming more aggressive in there sourcing of lithium and cobalt they are looking at Germany now as well as many other places ev and battery storage is one of the driving forces behind them
take a look at our [jv ] they look a good investment to [ share price going back up ]
ignore that lol
Are you in the private Twitter group?
no
Are you in the private Twitter group?
with our investments in lithium cobalt nickel for ev and battery storage they are a good investment all metal investment companies made a good recovery to day
Some good buys coming in today
i can only think blocknbits is an inside bullshitter.
Brandshield rumours beginning to fly around... Need concrete news
sub 0.40p to vanish
