Electra Battery Materials awards $6.1M contract to EXP Services

Electra Battery Materials (ELBM) Corporation has awarded a US$6.1 million contract to EXP Services to provide engineering, project management, and construction management services during the construction phase of Electra’s Ontario battery materials refinery project. This partnership enhances Electra’s project execution capabilities as the Company advances North America’s first cobalt sulfate refinery toward mechanical completion and commissioning in 2027. “Electra is focused on commissioning its cobalt sulfate refinery in 2027,” said Trent Mell, CEO. “As governments and the private sector seek to secure critical minerals and de-risk critical mineral supply chains, Electra’s facility is positioned as a strategic asset to support North America’s military and industrial base.”
