SHANGHAI, Sep 18 (SMM) – Construction of a lithium-ion battery and system project began at Jincheng High-tech Industry Park in Jintan district, Jiangsu province on September 17. 

Guangzhou Great Power Energy & Technology will invest some 5.8 billion yuan in the project. Its construction area is planned for 331,000 m², with an annual production capacity of 10Gwh lithium-ion batteries and 5Gwh lithium battery packs, SMM learned.

With the current shortage of high-end lithium battery capacity, the project will customise high-end production capacity. It will be constructed across three phases, the first of which will commence operation in June 2019. Annual sales revenue is expected at 10 billion yuan, SMM learned.

South32 Raises Hermosa Taylor Capex by Over 50%, Delays Production to 2028 H1
On April 30th, South32 raised the development cost estimate for the Taylor deposit at its Hermosa zinc-silver project in Arizona, US, and delayed the timeline. First-stage capital expenditure has increased by more than 50%, from $2.2 billion in the 2024 FS to $3.3 billion. First production has been delayed by one year to H2 FY2028, full production has also been pushed back to FY2031. Cost increase was mainly due to contractor underperformance, slower-than-expected construction productivity, scope changes, inflation, US tariffs and higher input costs. Progress on a key ventilation shaft is the main bottleneck now. But the company also noted that ore reserves at Taylor increased by 52%, mineral resources rose by 10%, extending the expected mine life from 28 years to around 33 years.
