“Our second quarter was marked by several events important for the progress of the Chvaletice project. In March, we received the final approval of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment from the Czech Ministry of the Environment. It is a major milestone for the permit and the project, and is an important gate permit that allows us to obtain subsequent permits in a more procedural manner. It also allows us to proceed to the next stage of the debt financing process, the European Investment Bank evaluation stage. The funding from the EIB complements a broader funding package to support the development of our high-purity battery-grade manganese plant in the Czech Republic. We welcomed the final approval of the Raw Materials Act and the U.S. Inflation Control Act final rules. Both of these monumental sets of regulations have very positive implications for high-purity manganese and support Euromangan's Švaretice project. , positioning us as the only European manganese producer to support the EU and US requirements to supply a critical raw material for the energy transition.”
