Manning is led by a seasoned management team with a clear focus on driving value to shareholders through actively exploring Energy Metals projects in North America.
Manning is focused on driving shareholder value through the exploration and discovery of Energy Metals, critical materials needed to power the new energy paradigm.
Lithium, Copper, and associated materials will continue to be at the forefront of global commodity demand for decades to come.
We seek out geologically favorable ground that is both highly prospective and underexplored and through intelligent, methodical exploration we pursue impactful resource discovery.
Copper is a versatile metal essential in various applications due to its excellent electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and resistance to corrosion. It is widely used in electrical wiring, electronics, plumbing, and in the construction industry for roofing and plumbing. Additionally, copper plays a crucial role in renewable energy systems, including solar, wind power, and electric vehicles, where it is used in the production of generators, motors, and batteries. This broad range of uses underscores copper’s importance in modern technology and sustainable development initiatives.
Typically, mineralization occurs as Lithium-Cesium-Tantalum (LCT) style spodumene bearing pegmatites.
Lithium bearing rocks can be processed into either lithiumcarbonate or lithium hydroxide while brines can initially only be processed into lithium carbonate (Li2CO3), which can then be further processed into lithium hydroxide (LiOH)
Spodumene bearing pegmatites are important sources of hard rocklithium. With rising EV demand lithium hydroxide and lithium carbonatite prices have risen by over 200% during 2021. Despite the price rises the forecast lithium market imbalance will continue to increase dramaticallyin coming years (Allkem, CEO Presentation, 2021)
An incredible opportunity to take part in the growing demand for electric vehicles, mobile devices, and grid storage that is creating a long-term supply shortage and increasing lithium prices.
With the Biden Administration providing $3.16B USD in funding for lithium projects domestically, and investing $5B USD towards the EV charging network, the U.S. is all in on the electrification of America. [1] – and Canada has adopted a similar position.
It is estimated that with the immense increase in battery metals demand, the world will need almost 400 new mines by 2035.[2]
