Pyrometallurgy, which traditionally doesn’t recover carbon or lithium, seems likely to be phased out. The company is building a new plant in Nevada, and aims to be processing 10,000 tons of black mass (equivalent to about 150,000 EV battery packs) annually by 2025. The output consists of those critical battery minerals and metals.
