MTM Critical Metals (ASX:MTM) - Revolutionary Tech Could Supply US Critical Gallium Needs by 2025

Well done guys 👍

[@Michael-Wil]

if, and i repeat if, these guys can do at scale a quarter of what they can do they'll be bought out in no time. My question is why aren't the majors partnering with them YET?

[@marka4812]

still bench scale, need pilot plant proven production to further de risk?

[@andrewdavidson7619]

What about partners like Indium Co? Not to mention those mentioned but not named which have direct relationships with USDoD, or USDoE?

@ It’s not a partnership as yet, it’s an MOU and as said in the interview that’s on hold. An MOU and a partnership are completely different things, and an MOU has little or no value to those who would fund the company. With regards to the DoE and DoD every company that’s open to every applicable company to apply, that’s just common sense. What I find hard to believe that this relatively small company has been able to work out all the metallurgical recovery processes for numerous metals when many majors with far larger budgets can’t. I’m happy to let this one pass me by.

​@@Michael-Wil Ok I accept that an MOU it is not a financial partnership (as yet) and I understand you refer to a binding contract as the partnership you are concerned is absent. However I also consider an MOU to be a form of partnership for the purposes of working together for a common goal, which for a service so embryonic is highly encouraging. Please note that the MOU with Indium Inc Corporation for gallium, geranium, and indium is not on hold. That would require and ASX announcement. The MOU with a a major Lithium company is on hold (ice) due to the circumstances that "the lithium Market has really died". The reason that this relatively small company has been able to work out all the metallurgical recovery processes for numerous metals when many majors with far larger budgets can’t is becasue it (flash joule heating) is potentially revolutionary and was licenced from Rice University in the US, none of these traditional method companies knew anything about it - maybe they do now? Have you watched the couple of lectures on FJH from Jame Tour?. There are a few kzbin.info/www/bejne/epu1pHavjN2LrJosi=t3jjAfbJnAdyvwVc Best wishes, Michael

@@Michael-Wilif your thought process is why didn’t someone else do it sooner , have a look at iperion. IPX has revolutionised titanium production from a university level discovery and pilot, why didn’t anyone else do it sooner? That’s what innovation and breakthroughs bring, better and more efficient ways to do things already being done in ways nobody thought was possible or was able to do.
