 "In 2022, we took crucial steps to realise our strategy to mine European and responsible battery minerals to power the electric vehicle and clean energy industry. During 2023 the management and the Board of Directors are negotiating with various external parties and potential off-take partners in order to secure the company's financial capacity to develop and accelerate the company's project pipeline and to become a European mining and mineral raw materials supplier”, said Roberto García Martínez, CEO of Eurobattery Minerals. 
 
Strategic and operational highlights 2022
 
Finnish Hautalampi mine: Significant advances in preparations for the start of the mine with 40% stake acquisition, the final verdict for mining concession proceeding and an independent report concluding that the mineral resources in the mine project have almost doubled. 
 
Spanish Corcel mine project: Economic upside as independent report and metallurgical study (covering only 10 % of the whole mine lease) concludes that the nickel in Corcel is sufficient to manufacture half a million 60 kWh car batteries and worth EUR 113.9 million. With the necessary information provided to authorities for environmental and operational permits, the open pit mine project is significantly closer to operations. 
 
Swedish exploration permits: Research collaboration on rare earth elements and extension of all exploration permits during 2022.
