Company Description

American Manganese Inc. Ticker Symbol: TSX-V: AMY | Pinks: AMYZF | Frankfurt: 2AM is a company focused on the recycling of Lithium Ion Electric Vehicle Batteries based on their patented process for producing both Electrolytic Manganese Dioxide (EMD) and Chemical Manganese Dioxide (CMD) from ultra low grade manganese deposits.

The successful 2011 Pilot Plant work generated high purity manganese carbonate which may be used to produce either Electrolytic Manganese Metal (EMM), EMD or CMD.

After completing a successful Proof of Concept with contractor Kemetco Research Inc., American Manganese Inc, has filed its provisional patent application with the US Patent and Trademark Office for its innovative process for recovering of cathode materials (lithium, cobalt, nickel, aluminum and manganese) from spent lithium ion electric vehicle (EV) batteries.

The energy efficient, environmentally friendly hydrometallurgical process produces high purity metal products that have been demonstrated to be suitable for direct recycling back into new lithium ion batteries.

The revolutionary process provides a cleaner, environmentally sustainable recycling alternative to the current disposal options of either landfilling or smelting the spent lithium ion electric vehicle batteries. Furthermore, as the adoption of electric vehicles accelerates, the problems of suppling new cathode materials for new EV lithium ion batteries and disposing of spent lithium ion EV batteries will escalate accordingly.

AMI’s recycling process could provide a secure, verifiable source of the cathode materials feedstocks, thereby reducing the need for new mines in potentially economically or socially risky jurisdictions.
