Phenom Identifies and Reports on Advancements of High-Grade Vanadium-Nickel Opportunity
Phenom Resources (TSXV: PHNM) has announced significant progress in developing a high-grade vanadium-nickel processing project. The company has filed three US patent applications for vanadium processing technologies, with a focus on extracting vanadium and nickel from petroleum coke fly ash material.
Through collaboration with SGS Canada, over 25 innovative metallurgical tests have been completed, resulting in two preliminary recovery flowsheets achieving >90% recovery of both vanadium and nickel. The company is in discussions with a multinational Fortune 100 conglomerate for long-term feed material supply, and with two large strategic firms for potential partnerships or off-take agreements.
The project aims to establish a processing plant that would contribute to the US EV and large capacity battery markets, with potential support from Department of Energy grants and US tax credits through the Inflation Reduction Law.
Phenom Resources (TSXV: PHNM) ha annunciato significativi progressi nello sviluppo di un progetto di lavorazione ad alta qualità di vanadio e nichel. L'azienda ha presentato tre domande di brevetto negli Stati Uniti per tecnologie di lavorazione del vanadio, concentrandosi sull'estrazione di vanadio e nichel dal materiale di cenere volante del coke di petrolio.
Grazie alla collaborazione con SGS Canada, sono stati completati oltre 25 test metallurgici innovativi, risultando in due schemi di recupero preliminari che raggiungono oltre il 90% di recupero sia per il vanadio che per il nichel. L'azienda è in discussione con un conglomerato multinazionale Fortune 100 per la fornitura di materiale a lungo termine, e con due grandi aziende strategiche per potenziali partnership o accordi di off-take.
Il progetto mira a stabilire un impianto di lavorazione che contribuirebbe ai mercati statunitensi dei veicoli elettrici e delle batterie di grande capacità, con potenziale supporto da sovvenzioni del Dipartimento dell'Energia e crediti d'imposta negli Stati Uniti attraverso la Legge sulla Riduzione dell'Inflazione.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 19, 2024) - Phenom Resources Corp. (TSXV: PHNM) (OTCQX: PHNMF) (FSE: 1PY0) ("Phenom" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that internal Company research, development initiatives, and organic market interest have driven Phenom to create milestone progress on a potential high-grade vanadium-nickel processing project in 2024.
The Company's technical team of metallurgists has been working on metallurgical breakthroughs focused specifically on high vanadium recoveries of various feed material. The Company has filed three US patent applications regarding unique and potentially substantial vanadium processing opportunities. This update is focused on developments mainly pertaining to the Company's May 17, 2024 announcement that it had filed a patent application in the USA on a process to uniquely extract vanadium and nickel from petroleum coke fly ash material.
With the Company's expertise and technological successes in developing metallurgical flowsheets with high vanadium recoveries, it has sought out new vanadium opportunities to deploy its expertise on projects that specifically have potential viability at current vanadium prices. The Company has identified and is pursuing one such high-grade vanadium-nickel project (the "Identified Project") which is for a proposed processing plant that would be built to treat a continuous long-term available waste product.
Phenom is seeking to attract a strategic partner to fund and operate the Identified Project, with Phenom retaining part ownership through the utilization of its patented recovery processes. The Company anticipates that the Identified Project would be a long-term-operating processing plant that would process high-grade vanadium and nickel feed to generate high purity product at a profit at current prices and be a midstream contributor to the expanding US EV and large capacity battery markets.
Over the past year, SGS Canada, Inc. was engaged by Phenom to provide independent metallurgical testwork and has completed in excess of 25 different innovative and progressive tests on material from the Identified Project (described in more detail below). Prior to beginning these testing initiatives, Phenom identified and engaged in dialogue with a multinational Fortune 100 conglomerate that has the product and availability to supply our proposed future plant with decades of feed material at high grades and potentially low costs.
Paul Cowley, President & CEO of Phenom states, "The Company is very excited regarding the potential in what it sees as a high reward opportunity and is weighing its various options to proceed and unlock value for Phenom shareholders."
Paramount to proceeding down this path will be to minimize Phenom's capital risk by bringing in strategic partners, obtaining Department of Energy grant applications, negotiating Off-take Agreement cash components and receiving US tax credits through the Inflation Reduction Law or similar-type legislation that may be in effect at the time of production, to name a few sources. To date, the Company's efforts have been progressing at minimal costs so as not to distract from the Company's focus on its gold portfolio endeavours in Nevada.
Actions and Milestones
Through the guidance and direction of the Company's metallurgical team, over 25 innovative metallurgical tests at SGS Canada, Inc. in Lakefield, Ontario over the last year on sample source product have unlocked two potential preliminary metallurgical recovery flowsheets that have produced >
In addition to talks with the Fortune 100 company, the Company has also been in discussions with two large strategic firms evaluating the potential for their involvement as a strategic partner, joint venture partner or for Off-take Agreements. The Company is working towards an agreement with one or both parties but at this point, the Company cannot provide assurances that it will be able to come to acceptable terms with either. Site selection studies have identified numerous plant site locations to be considered in the US. Although several locations have been shortlisted, no decision as to location has been made at this time. Phenom will provide updates on the status of the above-noted transactions as material information becomes available.
