Tasman Metals (TSXV:TSM,NYSEMKT:TAS) has been accepted as an observing member of the US Department of Energy’s Critical Materials Institute.
As quoted in the press release:
The CMI team is coordinated and led by The Ames Laboratory in Iowa, with contribution from national laboratories, universities and various industry partners. CMI’s focus is to develop technologies and strategies that reduce the criticality of REE’s and other elements which may hinder the current and future development and commercialization of clean energy technologies. The CMI aims to reduce the risks in Western REE supply chains, including the encouragement of diversification of supply sources.
Tasman president and CEO, Mark Saxon, said:
asman has monitored the achievements of the CMI since its inception in early 2013, and is now looking forward to working closely with the CMI. The combination of excellent research and industry partners with the results-based goals of the CMI has potential to remove many of the impediments to the development of sustainable REE supply chains in the Western World. The CMI membership comes at a pivotal time for Tasman, with the delivery of the Pre-Feasibility Study (“PFS”) for Norra Karr now imminent.
