Canada: Lithium Universe has signed a memorandum of understanding with Lafarge Canada for the supply of aluminosilicate product (ACSR) from its Bécancour lithium refinery for use in Lafarge Canada’s cement.
The parties will work towards a definitive supply agreement, which would see Lafarge sourcing all ACSR from the facility in a bid to reduce waste and support a circular economy.
Lithium Universe chair Iggy Tan said “This is great news for Lithium Universe as we partner with Lafarge Canada to enhance the North American battery materials supply chain and promote sustainable innovation in Canada’s cement industry. This collaboration will not only advance our focus on building Bécancour Lithium Refinery’s secondary product supply chain but also strengthen local supply chains, foster a more circular economy in Québec, and contribute to greener construction materials.”
