[douginil]

Another free enterprise company significantly impacted by China's actions in the world market and product pricing

Jervois organisational restructure

March 11,2024

Jervois Global Limited (“Jervois” or the “Company”) (ASX: JRV) (TSX-V: JRV) (OTCQB: JRVMF) advises it has implemented further cost reductions across its business in response to adverse cobalt market conditions caused by Chinese overproduction and its impact on pricing.

Jervois has reduced senior corporate management roles, with 30% of positions made redundant or part-time. Jervois thanks affected individuals for their contributions and for those transitioning to part-time, their flexibility.

Jervois Non-Executive Directors will also reduce their fees by 30%, effective 1 February 2024.

No awards under the Company’s Short Term Incentive Plan will be made to the Chief Executive Officer, executive and corporate management team. Jervois has also frozen annual salary increases (generally linked to inflation) for 2024 across the corporate group, and at its sites, where legally permissible.

Organisation optimisation at Jervois Finland continues to advance, with a 5% reduction in workforce and €1.0 million in annual payroll cost savings across the first half of 2024. Since Jervois acquired the business in September 2021, total employee numbers have reduced by 10%, whilst continuing to maintain exceptional site operational safety standards and headline cobalt production capacity. The Jervois Finland team continues to advance innovation and cost-saving measures in response to challenging market conditions.

In addition, Greg Young (Executive General Manager – Commercial) has announced his retirement. Mr. Young remains a Jervois shareholder and the Company is grateful for his expertise and leadership of the Commercial group for his pre-agreed three-year term. Mr. Young was instrumental to Jervois’ growth of its geopolitically strategic portfolio of critical mineral assets servicing Western markets. Jervois has promoted Wayde Yeoman to Mr. Young’s role and position on the Jervois Global Executive Committee.

Jervois is committed to maintaining a safe work environment during these organisation changes and is determined to deliver a responsibly sourced, Western supply chain of critical minerals in the face of ongoing adverse cobalt market conditions.

Jervois shortlists locations for Department of Defense funded BFS for U.S. cobalt refinery


- Jervois shortlists two locations, one in each of the states of Pennsylvania and Louisiana, for its Department of Defense (“DoD”) funded bankable feasibility study (”BFS”) for a United States cobalt refinery.

- Sites are being evaluated to determine the preferred location; commercial negotiations with the states of Pennsylvania and Louisiana are commencing.

- Completion of site selection is an important milestone in the progress of the basic engineering and accompanying BFS for a U.S. cobalt refinery, led by engineering firm AFRY USA LLC and is expected to be completed by mid-2024.

- BFS is key to Jervois’ previously announced application under the Department of Energy (“DOE”) Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing Loan Program (the “ATVM Loan Program”) for a U.S. cobalt refinery.

- U.S. Cobalt refinery BFS is fully funded by the U.S. DoD Defense Production Act (“DPA”) Title III US$15 million funding agreement.

Jervois Global Limited (“Jervois” or the “Company”) (ASX: JRV) (TSX-V: JRV) (OTC: JRVMF) has short listed two preferred locations for its BFS for a United States-located cobalt refinery, led by AFRY USA LLC (“AFRY”). Jervois and its advisers have undertaken an extensive site selection process which has short-listed two existing industrial sites, one each in the states of Pennsylvania and Louisiana.

Jervois is now undertaking engineering, environmental and economic evaluations for both locations in advance of BFS completion, which is expected to be completed in mid-2024.

Jervois’ proposed U.S. cobalt refinery will produce cobalt sulphate, for use primarily in electric vehicle batteries, which is not produced in the U.S. today. Based on projected U.S. lithium ion battery chemistries, once operational the refinery is expected to be capable of supplying sufficient cobalt for about 1.2 million electric vehicles each year.

Jervois welcomes U.S. Congressional Select Committee proposal for a reserve to sustain cobalt price

12/12/2023

Jervois Global Limited (“Jervois”) (ASX: JRV) (TSX-V: JRV) (OTCQB: JRVMF) (https://jervoisglobal.com) welcomes a bipartisan proposal today of the United States Congress’ Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party (“the Congressional Select Committee”) to create a critical mineral reserve (“Resilient Resource Reserve”) to sustain cobalt price (among other critical minerals) for U.S. producers when the price dips below a floor, and for producers to recontribute during periods of high cobalt prices.

The proposed Resilient Resource Reserve is designed to insulate U.S. critical mineral producers, including cobalt, from the current price volatility resulting from China’s dominance of global critical mineral supply chains.

The Congressional Select Committee also proposes that the U.S.’ Export-Import Bank (“EXIM”) would expand and extend EXIM’s risk appetite under the China and Transformational Exports Program (“CTEP”), including for the financing of mining and critical minerals activities, including cobalt. EXIM has previously advised Jervois that its 100%-owned Idaho Cobalt Operations (“ICO”) is eligible for potential financing support under CTEP (see ASX announcement titled “U.S. EXIM Bank confirms ICO’s eligibility for domestic financing initiatives” dated 24 April 2023).

These extensive bipartisan legislative proposals are included in the Congressional Select Committee’s report entitled Reset, Prevent, Build: A Strategy to Win America’s Economic Competition with the Chinese Communist Party, which will be introduced for consideration of the full U.S. Congress in 2024.

Jervois owns 100% of ICO. ICO’s mineral resource and reserve is the largest and highest grade confirmed cobalt orebody in the U.S..

Jervois Global Limited

June 22, 2023

Highlights:

Jervois has been awarded a conditional €12 million grant from the Finnish government under the State business development body, Business Finland, to partially fund a potential expansion of Jervois’ cobalt refining capacity in Kokkola, Finland
The conditional grant recognises Jervois Finland’s innovations that improve environmental protection and its ESG leadership in the cobalt industry

Jervois Global Limited (“Jervois” or the “Company”) (ASX: JRV) (TSX-V: JRV) (OTC: JRVMF) is pleased to announce its 100%-owned subsidiary, Jervois Finland Oy (“Jervois Finland”), has been awarded €12 million in reimbursable cash funding for its potential expansion of cobalt refining capacity at the Kokkola Industrial Park (“KIP”) from Business Finland, a Finnish State development body, subject to meeting certain conditions.

Jervois expects this Business Finland grant will allow Jervois to evaluate restarting work on the Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”) for a cobalt refinery expansion at KIP, as described in an announcement to the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”) on 16 May 2022 (titled “Jervois Commencing BFS Refinery Expansion at Kokkola”). That work was paused in April 2023 in favor of a BFS for a new cobalt refinery located in the United States (“U.S.”) to be fully funded by the U.S. Department of Defense (“DoD”).

Jervois expects its BFS for a U.S. cobalt refinery will share a flow sheet and other elements with the BFS for a Finland cobalt refinery expansion, creating synergies and timeline benefits to the U.S. project. Jervois expects its DoD-funded BFS for a U.S. cobalt refinery will continue independently of any future work on a BFS for a Finland cobalt refinery expansion.

This Business Finland grant is expected to reimburse part of its BFS costs and costs of any future construction of a Finland cobalt refinery expansion. The award relates to Jervois’ environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) strategies for the facility, namely for an intention to exceed the European Union’s (“EU’s”) environmental protection standards and to reinforce Jervois Finland’s existing position of ESG leadership in the cobalt industry.

The Business Finland grant will be released subject to satisfaction of a number of conditions, including Jervois Board approval (or final investment decision) to construct the facility; securing financing and receipt of certain environmental permits. The grant does not expire until the end of October 2024.

Jervois continues to evaluate cobalt refinery investments in both the U.S. and Finland. The Company only expects to progress these projects in circumstances where project economics are demonstrated to be robust, and where third-party financing is available for advancement of studies and construction. Jervois continues to engage with potential partners in industry with regards to such financing, including governments, automakers and other battery and or critical mineral value chain participants

Jervois releases BFS for São Miguel Paulista refinery restart

April 29, 2022

Jervois Global Limited (“Jervois”) completes Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”) for Stage 1 of São Miguel Paulista Nickel and Cobalt refinery (“SMP”) restart to process mixed nickel hydroxide (“MHP”) and cobalt hydroxide through to metal.

Initial Stage 1 forecast production of 10,000mtpa1 and 2,000mtpa of refined nickel and cobalt metal cathode respectively. Stage 2 BFS regarding a return to full 25,000mtpa refined nickel production capacity expected to be finalized in 2H 2022.

Net Present Value (“NPV”) for Stage 1 restart of US$228 million and US$141 million at an 8% (real) discount rate on a pre-tax and post-tax basis respectively; nominal Internal Rate of Return (“IRR”) of 47% (pre tax) and 35% (post tax).

At US$8.00/lb nickel and US$25.00/lb cobalt, post ramp up of Stage 1 to BFS production rates, average annual EBITDA in real terms projected to be over US$30 million. Refinery economics resilient to a range of market scenarios, including current spot market conditions for refined and intermediate products.

Total project capital cost of US$55 million, representing a competitive refurbishment of an existing brownfield nickel and cobalt refinery. SMP has a long operating history, most recently placed into care and maintenance managed by current owner Companhia Brasil de Alumino (“CBA”).

Restarting the only electrolytic nickel-cobalt refinery in South and Latin America will deliver significant local and regional economic and social benefits to the São Miguel Paulista area of São Paulo city, Brazil.

SMP benefits from competitive low carbon energy (predominantly hydropower), skilled workforce, existing infrastructure including main arterial roads and ~120km from Brazil’s largest container port at Santos.

Jervois is advancing discussions on commercial supply contracts of MHP and cobalt hydroxide to underpin SMP restart. Work continues on design of an autoclave to process cobalt concentrates from Jervois’s 100%-owned Idaho Cobalt Operations (“ICO”); once available, this will be incorporated into the Stage 1 BFS.

Execution planning has commenced and a final investment decision for Stage 1 is anticipated to occur in parallel to closing of the SMP acquisition. Jervois continues to advance operating permit renewal process with the São Paulo City Hall, a condition precedent to closing, before 31 August 2022.

First commercial production from SMP’s Stage 1 restart is expected during 2023.

Battery Metals Are Hot, but These Miners Can’t Get Investors

Wall Street Journal April 23, 2021 7:00 am ET

[[ I read the WSJ every day and missed this ]]

TORONTO—Investors are pouring money into car companies, battery makers and clean-tech startups that are poised to benefit from the global economy’s shift to electric power. But many small mining companies that supply the raw materials haven’t been invited to the party.

Uncertainty over the metals’ quality, the short- and long-term outlook for prices and the ability of North American miners to compete with their Chinese counterparts is making investors wary.

Bryce Crocker, the chief executive officer of Jervois Mining Ltd., is touting a cobalt project in Idaho. The Australian executive needs $100 million to open a mine on central Idaho’s Gant Mountain that the company says could eventually produce more than 15% of the cobalt consumed annually in the U.S. The blue-gray mineral is critical to making the batteries that power electric vehicles, laptops and smartphones as well as the alloys used to make jet-fighter engines.

After more than a year of fundraising, he is still seeking contributions from commercial banks, private-equity firms and hedge funds.

“We need the support of the capital markets,” he said. “But this is not a commodity that lenders have traditionally loaned against.”

Dear Investor,

Despite the coronavirus pandemic, which broke out in earnest during March of last year, cobalt prices showed unexpected resilience in the face of uncertainty throughout 2020.

After a year of relative stability, a combination of tight supply and rising demand from the battery industry saw prices outperform expectations for the quarter, Greg Miller of Benchmark Mineral Intelligence told the Investing News Network (INN).

This is not the first time the cobalt market has seen a price spike, with the current rally reminding seasoned battery metals investors of what happened during 2017 and early 2018.

To help investors learn more about their options when looking at cobalt investing, INN has compiled a FREE 2021 INNvestor Report with market forecasts, exclusive interviews with industry experts, and more!

Good to see some indication of some progress here. The company has been marking time for a long time.

I've been involved here since buying some of the old Formation Capital stock c2010 or so,... That Idaho Cobalt project could be a big winner IF they ever do get it into production.
