Talga is encouraging the moss to grow under its feet..

"PRESS RELEASE - 30 JANUARY 2024 09:44

Eco-innovation from Umeå can break new ground for the mining industry​

Mining affects ecosystems, topography and vegetation. Now Daniel Pacurar and Boreal Orchards AB are starting a Vinnova- and mining industry-financed project with four large mining companies, VAST AB and SLU.

The goal: Using moss to speed up the restoration of landscapes after mining.
- If it turns out well, it could set a new standard for the mining industry, says project manager Matt Baida, VAST AB.

In May, Daniel Pacurar met for the first time representatives of the mining industry in Luleå at the "Swedish Mining Innovation and Research Day". A little over six months later, he has received a total of SEK 2.8 million, half from Vinnova and half from the participating mining companies for the project "re:moss: Ecological restoration of landscapes after mining with native moss".

Boreal Orchards, the landscape architect agency VAST AB, SLU and the mining companies Boliden, Copperstone Resources, LKAB and Talga participate in the project, which is supported by Swedish Mining Innovation, part of Vinnova's, the Swedish Energy Agency's and Forma's investment in strategic areas of innovation.

The project extends from November 2023 to June 2025, but Daniel, who receives business support from the Umeå Biotech Incubator, has already gotten off to a flying start when he was in Kiruna in September collecting moss. He will now, based on the local moss, produce a moss mixture which will then be applied through "hydroseeding" at two locations, within LKAB's industrial area in Svappavaara and within an area where Talga has carried out trial mining before.

The moss creates a natural basis for restoration
Moss is a component of the biocrust, a protective layer for the soil consisting of small organisms that help the soil stay healthy. It grows on all types of substrates, even stone and rocks, and when the moss attaches to the mining landscape, it creates the conditions for other vegetation to establish itself more quickly and in a natural way.

- The formation of the biocrust is crucial for a successful ecological restoration and moss is a specific and important component in the restoration of the biocrust, says Daniel Pacurar, founder of Boreal Orchards, who explains that the benefits of moss are many.

- Moss creates a first protective layer for the vegetation. It is hardy, does not compete with other vegetation and creates a natural foundation for other plants to build on.

First meeting an aha experience
Landskapsarkitektbyrån VAST AB works with geomorphological design, a design method that takes inspiration from nature to create new landscapes from extraction waste. Matt Baida, CEO of VAST, is project manager for "ReMOSS" describes the first meeting with Daniel Pacurar as an aha experience.

- When Daniel explained what moss can do, it felt obvious, like an eye opener. The mining industry in Sweden is aware of the challenges and is getting better at it, it will be very exciting to see how this works and how other vegetation can establish itself with the moss, says Matt Baida.

The project participant LKAB has high goals regarding biological diversity. For them, sustainable and value-creating finishing is a key to reaching the goals. The vision is to give nature a chance to re-establish itself and then allow, for example, reindeer husbandry and outdoor activities to return to the areas, but LKAB is still looking for tools to reach all the way in the complicated restoration process.

"Extremely important to recreate functional local ecosystems"
- For LKAB, it is extremely important to recreate functional local ecosystems when we leave an area. It's one thing to plant trees but a bit more difficult to get other layers like moss, lichens and rice plants. Establishing an ecosystem from the bottom up with moss feels exciting as it can both help establish vegetation and increase the amount of organic material on barren surfaces, says Camilla Esberg, Development Engineer at LKAB.

Talga is building a battery anode factory in Luleå. To produce their battery anodes, they need graphite, and the company's plans are to extract graphite in its own mine outside Vittangi. The company's plans for anode production are well advanced and for Talga this is an important issue.

- Mining is a temporary land use. It is our responsibility to conduct our business in a sustainable manner. The land will be used for something else in the future and it is our responsibility to prepare for it in the best way possible. Therefore, we have developed a closure plan with guidelines for how we treat the environment in the meantime and how we will do to leave the landscape in good condition afterwards, says Peter French, Environment and Community Manager, at Talga.

Talga sees great potential in the project
Just like the others, he sees many advantages of the moss. In addition to stabilizing the ground and providing conditions for re-established vegetation, Talga also sees an aesthetic perspective.

- When land is mined, regardless of whether it is mining or logging, a different, more sterile, visual impression is created. This project has great potential to use existing materials and technology to help recreate the landscape as the moss lays a green foundation that nature can build on.

THE ARTICLE IN BRIEF
* Daniel Pacurar and Boreal Orchards AB lead a project, financed by Vinnova and the mining industry, to use moss in landscape restoration after mining.
* The "re:moss" project aims to create a biocrust of moss to promote ecological recovery and support other vegetation.
* Local moss is used and it creates a foundation for other plants and contributes to the recovery of the landscape.
* The project involves geomorphological design and may set a new standard for environmentally friendly mining and landscape restoration.

True. But their mine is in Sweden.. As incidentally are many mining operations in Sweden..
But Australia does have mines in cold climate regions. Tasmania for example. Some pretty degraded landscapes on the West Coast

Going to be interesting to see what the Investor Webinar offers this evening. Investor confidence seems shot at the moment.
Waiting for the Swedish Supreme Court decision is very destabilising.

Checked out the Stockexchange site and came across this excellent summary of yesterdays webinar. (In fact it was copied from another site.)
But it appears to be a good summary.

There were many great topics covered, but these were the parts that stood out the most to me. It’s a mixture of paraphrasing and direct quotes.

Mark noted the difficult macro conditions for the battery sector with lithium’s collapse and negative media coverage but stated that Talga’s side of things “are frankly very good.”

He stated that he’s not in Stockholm for a conference but “we actually have car companies here, we have customers here, there are politicians here and policy makers from Europe, so doing a whole bunch of things.”

“One thing the outside world is not being reminded much of is, we’re not actually a one project company, we’re actually developing a whole range of battery materials. There’s diversity to our products, different technologies, different markets. All being developed parallel. Of course our main project is Vittangi, which is a mine to battery project here in north Sweden, which is drawing very close. But do not forget we are exposing ourselves to many other parts of the market as well that is growing in electrification. The growth rates may change a little up and down, but overall is still growing really strongly. Just a reminder that your company, if you’re a shareholder, is not just about a single project, it's created a lot of value that’s probably on the verge of coming out in various ways.”

“The big thing was in the last quarter, the news that the Chinese were looking at export restrictions from December 1, that news was announced in October, the day after it was announced, I had to fly to a different country every single day meeting auto makers. For the first time we’re seeing auto OEMs much more interested in anode supply chains, than the cell makers ever were.”

"What this news from China did was, the end users realised that they were much more exposed than they thought. It wasn’t the fact that China have exported restrictions to zero, it’s that they suddenly realised that, particularly on the graphite side, they hadn’t been paying attention and that they had to do something about it strategically. We’re now inundated with site visits and interests not just from within Europe, but in America as well. To be honest it’s been fantastic for business. It essentially did a lot of the heavy lifting that we’ve been talking to these customers about for a long time, and now they’ve got an accelerated attitude towards these things. The localisation of supply chains is no longer theoretical, the increase in deglobalisation, a much harsher geopolitical landscape, it’s not going back to what it was before where you can import disinflation from China. Everyone is realising that if you don’t have your own thing, you will possibly come to an end.”

Mark also goes on to state how the EU must protect their automotive industry and why the destruction of the automotive industry would be far worse than what happened to the solar panel industry.

“The difference is you’ve already got millions of people employed in the industry, been going for a hundred years in countries like Germany and France, so they’ve got a lot more to protect. They’ve got billions of dollars of debt in pension fund payments for all these workers, they’ve got a much higher level of investment that they’re trying to protect. Its a different motivation, otherwise you could just say sure, cheap BYDs come on in. There is a fight they’re looking at having to support their industries, whether that’s through tariffs, going against free trade principles, whether it’s through increasing subsidies to local providers, either way it’s supportive of what Talga’s doing, which is setting up a non-Asian replacement of Asian battery supply chains.

For us internally, business has never been better. Fundamentals of the interest from where the customers are at has expanded from cell making and going beyond to the autos, the final customers who were happy just to let the cell makers do whatever they want, now actually strategically the auto OEMs are much more concerned about it now. “

“Customer off takes, some of them have already been advanced as far as they can go, and they’re waiting on some of the things around the project, new ones are continuously underway. The customers you have visibility on are not the only customers, that’s for sure. There's a whole heap and that’s accelerating after these recent events."

Mark mentions that the company had hoped that the appeals decision would have wrapped up by Christmas, that hasn’t happened yet but states that it is getting very very close. Says that we have reason to be confident that it is nearby.

“We don’t get official detailed information before the announcement is made publicly. Certainly from working with policy makers and local politicians and people within government here, everyone is confident and with fingers crossed.” He mentions that if the appeals go against the company, they can still apply for an execution order and potentially start the project anyway.

On the financing of the project, which I was most happy about. Note the talk about project finance, not equity in the company as well as strategic partners with prepayment purchase agreements.

“We’ve stated our target for 60% debt funding and 40% equity for a long time now. What people, particularly research analysts have to do, is they say well I don’t know where the 40% equity is, but I guess you’re going to issue shares for it and that’s going to be hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars, and of course, we say no that’s not the case.

We have a whole range of options. For example, there are EU and different member state grants and state aid available. Now you would think we would be applying for these, and we are, but unlike the American system where you talk about it from the beginning, in Europe you can’t actually talk about it until the end. So when they’re fully approved and granted, but during the process you’re not allowed to say how much you’ve applied for and who with.

We’ve got pretty good chances, you would imagine. We’re a critical mineral, Critical Raw Materials Act has just come out, it’s going into force in the next few months. As part of that they designate strategic projects for Europe, which can also facilitate access to various funds.

Essentially if you look at our package, the equity component of financing the project can be broken down into as much aid as you can get from somewhere else. There’s Australian companies, they get up to $200m in some sort of aid from either the Australian or US government. We haven’t done that yet, you haven’t heard us because you can’t talk about it until it’s finished. But of course those things are underway with us to decrease any other funding requirement on the equity side.

Then what’s left? You’ve got two things to do. Number one you could pay for it yourself if the shares are $5 and it’s not going to hurt you too much in the company’s dilution. But times are not like that, so you look at strategic partners. What does that mean? Pre-payments or off takes. Strategic investment, not necessarily into the company, but into the project by a player or an actor, that can help continue to decrease your funding requirements going forward.

Times are tough, but that’s okay. We are asset rich. We have many things to sell and work with, with various partners. It’s not even in the project, there are other parts of the business as well. The lithium discoveries, the cobalt deposits, quarter of a billion tons of iron ore in resources, copper projects including resources. Then of course silicon and other battery technologies, that separately can also attract state aid aid strategic investors and who’s money could essentially be paying for parts of the company and forming part of that equity. We don’t sit around in corporate-land thinking about just dashing shares away. We’re under no pressure, we have options and time. The point is, there’s a whole bunch of solutions. It isn’t that we’re going to issue a quarter of a billion dollars of shares for equity.”

On the new members of the team:

Per-Inge Kruse is heading up business development and strategic alliance. “He’s ripping into that at a rate of knots, I can tell you. We’ve been on the road already and we’re hitting the road again this weekend for a very exciting trip to some customers while here.”

Eva Nordmark, Mark says she’s very well connected and interested in the nation building part of what Talga is doing as well as the environment cleanup part.

For those that are thinking that a positive appeals decision will be brushed off by the market or the current shorts with 17.2m shorted, Mark once again stated that the finalisation of the permit “allows for the finalisation of the finance and the off takes, basically. Plus we’re looking at off takes for other products from silicon, to underwrite those things as well. We’ve obviously got a bigger focus on strategic partners now and government funding. So both of those things will be coming out as well.”

There was another post on thestockexchange talga thread that reinforced the EU drive to support local battery development ie Talga

"EIT InnoEnergy and Demeter launch €500m European
battery raw materials fund

18 January 2024, Davos: EIT InnoEnergy, the innovation engine for sustainable energy supported by the
European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT), a body of the European Union (EU), and
Demeter Investment Managers*, a major European private equity and venture capital firm; today
announced the launch of a fund dedicated to the development of a resilient and diverse battery raw
material supply chain for Europe.

With a target size of €500 million, the ‘EBA Strategic Battery Materials Fund’ (EBA Materials Fund or
the “Fund”) builds upon the success of the European Battery Alliance (EBA250) in its mission to create
a resilient European battery industry. The fund is launched amidst soaring European demand for
batteries which is exposing significant gaps in the upstream (mining, processing) of the EU’s battery
material supply chain. In line with the EU’s Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA) requirements to
decrease the EU’s overreliance on foreign supply, the fund aims to boost domestic capacities for
strategic battery materials such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese, and graphite.

It seems that the yesterdays webinar has enthused/created support for Talga. A decent 9% jump in SP at this stage.
I thought the broad parameters as well as the detail of Mark Thompson presentation were very encouraging. Talga has more than one iron in the fire. The EU is very much focused on local production of EV materails. New legislation is demanding local production vs importation of resources.

The fact that many companies are chasing Talga for Anodes as they watch Chinese sources of graphite dry up. The range of financial support for the project that seems reasonable and open to application.

But finally the big one. The Swedish government appears very committed to ensuring this project does ahead. One way or another that strongly suggests a good outcome. It may well be that this is a good opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a valuable and shovel ready project.

.......................................................................................
I am very impressed with Mark Thompson. Over the years I have found him a very driven and effective CEO. As far as I can see he wants to make this project work. I say that as distinct to some other CEO's whose focus often seems to be largely personal financial advancement.

I'm still holding.

New appointment for Talgas European operations. They certainly anticipate a positive resolution of the Swedish Supreme Court appeal.
The SP is still holding despite the continuing delay. Suggests, IMV, that enough investors are confident this will work out well to buy out those who think Talga is going nowhere but down.

ASX Release ASX:TLG

Talga continues to strengthen. Up 10% + today . Given there is still no news on the Vittangi appeal it seems some investors are confident the result will be favorable and are wading back into the market.

In the event of a favourable outcome one could predict a string of releases on financing, joint ventures and new laws offering promotion and support for critical infrastructure. Anyway that is my view as well.
