  • Renascor’s acceptance into the EBA strengthens the position of the Siviour Battery Anode Material Project as a potential future supplier to the European market of the Purified Spherical Graphite required for production of electric vehicle battery anodes.

  • Renascor holds the largest reported Ore Reserve of Graphite outside of Africa, and the second largest Proven Reserve in the world[1] .

  • Membership to EBA provides Renascor the opportunity to collaborate with key European stakeholders such as the European Investment Bank, and end users seeking reliable, secure and sustainable access to Purified Spherical Graphite as part of the Europe’s increasing investment in the lithium-ion battery supply chain.

Renascor Resources (ASX: RNU) ( Renascor ) is pleased to announce that it has been accepted as a member of the European Battery Alliance (EBA), a group created by the European Commission to foster collaboration between key players in the battery materials space.

This member group has been developed with aim of meeting the challenges of the rapid migration from fossil fuels to electric powered transport and grid energy by establishing a domestic battery value chain in Europe. The EBA acknowledges that collaboration of this type is an important process in supporting European countries in the transition from fossil fuels to clean energy.

The European Union (EU) established the EBA in October 2017 with the aim of bringing together a range of significant players in the future development of a battery value chain in Europe.

The EBA network currently has approximately 600 members including the European Commission, the European Investment Bank, European member states, and a host of other battery materials, technology and financing companies from miners to academics.

Renascor Resource is an Australian-based company focused on the discovery and development of viable mineral deposits. Renascor has an extensive tenement portfolio in South Australia, including our flagship project, the Siviour Battery Anode Material Project.

The rise in demand for electric vehicles is driving an increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries and their constituent materials, including graphite, and more specifically, Purified Spherical Graphite, as the main raw material in lithium-ion battery anodes.

Current commercial production of lithium-ion battery anodes generally involves the use of graphite, in the form of Purified Spherical Graphite, which is then coated with carbon before being manufactured into battery anodes.

Renascor plans to produce Purified Spherical Graphite through a vertically integrated battery anode material operation in South Australia that combines a mining operation at Renascor’s 100%-owned Siviour Graphite Project with a downstream processing operation to produce Purified Spherical Graphite. See Figures 1 and 2 and Renascor ASX announcement dated 1 July 2020.
