In 2021, Jinyuan shares comply with the market demand, set foot in the field of new energy materials, and strive to become a mainstream supplier of new energy materials with lithium resources industry chain as the core, with equal emphasis on solid and hazardous waste resource disposal and comprehensive recovery and utilization of rare and precious metals.

In 2021, Jinyuan successfully acquired a 51% stake in Ali Lithium Source, and set up a special team to carry out construction work; at the same time, it is also organizing a number of groups to negotiate more lithium resources projects. As of the disclosure date, the company's Lxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxqiancuo salt lake lithium salt project has been put into production as soon as possible and as much as possible

In addition, the technical transformation of Jiangxi New Jinye Electrolytic Copper Project by Jinyuan shares in 2021 will be completed at the end of December 2021, which can adapt to the recovery of polymetallic raw materials with short process and less waste residue. Jiangxi Huiying 120000 tons of conventional electrolytic copper project has completed 30, 000 tons of electrolytic copper trough production in January 2022.

To sum up, Jinyuan Co., Ltd. new energy materials business is mainly through the upstream salt lake brine lithium mining, and then the manufacture of lithium products used in new energy lithium batteries and other fields.
