The project is scheduled to finish construction in Q3 2021 and commission before end 2021

SHANGHAI, Nov 20 (SMM) – Hefei Guoxuan High-Tech, a Chinese power battery supplier, said on November 18 it has signed a cooperation agreement with Tangshan government to build a 5G new energy industrial base that involves 7GWh capacity of lithium-ion batteries.

With an investment of 5.5 billion yuan, the project is scheduled to finish construction in the third quarter of 2021 and officially commission before end 2021.

Completion of the project will see the company’s lithium-ion battery capacity in Tangshan expanding to 10GWh.

This makes Tangshan one of the top eight manufacturing bases of Guoxuan High-Tech.

Phosphate Ore Imports and Exports Surge in August: Is the Demand Peak Season Arriving?

In August, China’s phosphate ore imports surged month-on-month (MoM), and the price center shifted upward. Total imports for the month were 116,000 mt, up 563.2% MoM, largely recovering from the extremely low base in July caused by the export ban. The average import price rebounded to US$94.6/mt, up 12.0% MoM. Egypt and Jordan together accounted for 98.3%, further intensifying source concentration. Meanwhile, after consecutive zero transactions, exports suddenly rose to 61,000 mt in August.

[SMM Analysis] South Korea's NEV Exports Drop in August, but Cumulative Growth Persists Despite Production Disruptions

Korea’s NEV exports fell sharply in August amid fewer working days and production disruptions, but the YoY decline of 16.4% was milder than the 26.9% drop in total auto exports. Cumulative Jan-Aug NEV exports still rose 21.2%, while BEV exports were relatively resilient. The key focus is whether exports recover as production normalizes from September.

First Atlantic Raises C$6.16 Million to Accelerate Exploration and Development at Pipestone XL Nickel-Cobalt Project

According to First Atlantic Nickel & Cobalt on September 18, the company has completed a non-brokered private placement without warrants, raising approximately C$6.16 million. The proceeds will mainly be used to advance drilling, metallurgical testing, road construction and exploration access at the Pipestone XL nickel-cobalt project in Newfoundland, Canada. The company also plans to accelerate systematic exploration along an approximately 30-kilometre mineralized trend, including priority targets such as RPM and Alloy Max. Pipestone XL is characterized by naturally occurring nickel-iron-cobalt alloy mineralization known as awaruite. Previous testing by the company showed high-grade alloy concentrates averaging around 67.4% nickel, with cobalt grades in some samples reaching up to approximately 1.76%. First Atlantic said this style of mineralization may allow for a relatively simplified processing route with less dependence on conventional smelting, roasting or HPAL. The financing will support further resource validation and technical development, although the project remains at the exploration and process-testing stage.
