In a move that cements its position as a key player in the rapidly expanding electric vehicle (EV) battery market, African Minerals Corporation (AMC), the continent's second-largest manganese producer, has announced a significant partnership with French mining giant, Eramet. The partnership will see AMC supply Eramet with high-grade manganese ore, a crucial component in the production of EV batteries. As the demand for EVs continues to surge, driven by governments' efforts to reduce carbon emissions and meet climate change targets, the partnership marks a significant step for Eramet in securing a stable supply chain for its battery materials. With this deal, Eramet is poised to strengthen its position in the EV battery supply chain, while AMC gains a major foothold in the global market.
