Generates revenue from Nevada lithium-ion battery recycling, producing black mass and metal byproducts. Development work adds extraction technology and the Tonopah Flats claystone project, making facility ramp-up, feedstock supply, offtake, grant milestones, and permitting central to the business.
Produces revenue today from lithium-ion battery recycling in Nevada, where operations process end-of-life batteries, manufacturing scrap, and related feedstock into black mass and metal byproducts.
Beyond recycling, develops extraction technology and primary-resource production around Tonopah Flats, a Nevada claystone lithium project aimed at battery-grade lithium hydroxide. The company reports one operating segment rather than separate recycling and mining segments.
Execution is concentrated in the United States, with headquarters in Reno, recycling in McCarran, and mineral exploration around Tonopah. The business depends on facility ramp-up, feedstock supply, product offtake, DOE grant milestones, and permitting for Tonopah Flats.
