Euro Manganese Commences Demonstration Plant Commissioning

11.11.2022  |  GlobeNewswire

VANCOUVER, Nov. 10, 2022 - Euro Manganese Inc. (TSX-V and ASX: EMN; OTCQX: EUMNF; Frankfurt: E06) (the "Company" or "EMN") is pleased to announce the commencement of commissioning of the Demonstration Plant at the Chvaletice Project site.

Highlights

  • Strong demand for Demonstration Plant and Pilot Plant samples from the Chvaletice Project by 12 companies, including automotive OEMs, EV battery and cathode manufacturers, and speciality alloy manufacturers.
  • Demonstration Plant installation substantially complete and commissioning underway.
  • Samples from second Pilot Plant run ready for shipping.

Demonstration Plant Update

After arrival at site in early September, the Demonstration Plant modules were unpacked and placed in position within two fully refurbished buildings. Inspection and installation, including wiring and power connections, piping, and utilities connection is now substantially complete. An emission scrubbing unit, manufactured in Europe, has also been installed.

Commissioning of the Demonstration Plant will occur on a module-by-module basis, including cold, hot and performance testing. The first module commenced commissioning this week. Photos of each of the nine core process modules are shown below.

Six companies from across the EV battery value chain and the speciality alloy industry have requested Demonstration Plant samples as they invest in the qualification process of Euro Manganese's high-purity manganese products. On-spec products of high-purity electrolytic manganese metal ("HPEMM") and high-purity manganese sulphate monohydrate ("HPMSM") are expected in the first quarter, 2023. Euro Manganese will then commence deliveries of Demonstration Plant samples to customers.

A further six companies, including European and North American automotive OEMs, battery manufacturers, and cathode manufacturers, who are currently testing Pilot Plant samples, are expected to request Demonstration Plant samples as part of their strategy to move to local supply chains with full traceability and the highest sustainability standards.

We are in advanced discussions on off-take arrangements, which are not conditional on these sample qualification tests being completed.

Pilot Plant Update

Due to strong demand for samples of the Company's high-purity manganese products, Euro Manganese has completed a second run from its small-scale Pilot Plant in China. Samples are now ready for shipping.

Dr. Matthew James, President & CEO of Euro Manganese, commented:

"With the arrival of the Demonstration Plant at site, the team at Chvaletice has worked hard to install the modules and connect them to utilities. This week is a major milestone with commissioning of the first module. We eagerly look forward to delivering samples from the Demonstration Plant to customers so they may continue their supply chain qualification of Chvaletice's high purity manganese products."
