With this listing, we look forward to broadening our shareholder base by offering a differentiated investment opportunity and provide UK and European investors with a way to gain exposure to projects at the heart of recycling and decarbonising supply chains associated with the electric vehicle and energy storage sectors.

With a number of our core projects moving towards final investment decisions during 2022, we have an exciting year, full of value transformative events ahead of us and we look forward to updating shareholders on progress in due course.
