NextSource Materials Executes Letter of Intent with Hanwa and JOGMEC for a US$30 Million Strategic Investment in UAE Battery Anode FacilityFebruary 3, 2026 7:00 AM
ACCESS NewswireHighlights:Strategic Japanese investment and partnership achieved through an executed LOI with Hanwa Co., Ltd. ("Hanwa") and Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security ("JOGMEC") for a potential project-level equity investment in the UAE Battery Anode Facility ("BAF") of up to US$30 million.Joint Investment Vehicle to be formed by Hanwa and JOGMEC for the purpose of acquiring a minority equity interest in the Company's UAE BAF at the project level.Significant advancement on the path to a Final Investment Decision ("FID") achieved as this LOI formalizes the previously announced Japanese strategic consortium and further reinforces the Company's momentum towards FID.Government-support provided by the participation of JOGMEC, a Japanese government agency, underscoring the importance of the UAE BAF in diversifying critical mineral supply chains for the Japanese battery industry.Exclusivity provided to Hanwa and JOGMEC to March, 31st 2026, aligning with the Company's planned FID by end Q1 2026. TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / February 3, 2026 / NextSource Materials Inc. (TSX:NEXT)(OTCQB:NSRCF) ("NextSource" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has executed a letter of intent ("LOI") with Hanwa Co. Ltd. ("Hanwa"), one of Japan's leading trading companies, and Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security ("JOGMEC"), a Japanese government agency, for a potential investment in Phase 1 of the Company's proposed Battery Anode Facility ("BAF") in the Industrial City of Abu Dhabi in the UAE.This LOI represents a key milestone in the Company's strategic financing process and underscores growing international interest in establishing diversified and secure battery anode supply chains.Under the terms outlined in the LOI, Hanwa and JOGMEC collectively are jointly considering a project-level investment of up to US$30 million through a special purpose vehicle jointly owned by the two parties. This investment is anticipated to represent up to 15% equity interest in the UAE BAF project company upon completion of the initial funding for Phase 1. The investment is contemplated to occur in one or more phases, subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements.As previously announced, Phase 1 of the planned UAE BAF is proposed to have an initial production capacity of approximately 14,000 tonnes per annum of natural graphite active anode material, forming part of a staged development strategy targeting total capacity of approximately 30,000 tpa.In addition to the contemplated investment into the Company's UAE BAF, the LOI also includes Hanwa's and JOGMEC's shared interest in a broader strategic framework, which may include preferential Japanese offtake arrangements, distribution and logistics services to be provided by Hanwa in designated territories, and a long-term supply agreement for graphite feedstock from NextSource's Molo graphite mine.Hanré Rossouw, President and CEO of NextSource, commented:"We are excited to advance our discussions on strategic partnership with Hanwa and JOGMEC, two esteemed Japanese organizations with deep expertise in global battery materials and energy security, and global market access. This LOI highlights the strategic value of our UAE BAF project in supporting Japan's supply chain objectives and diversifying global anode production, and represents a potential cornerstone investment toward securing the project's funding requirements."The LOI is non-binding and subject to customary conditions, including completion of final due diligence, regulatory approvals, and internal approvals by all parties. The parties have agreed to an exclusivity period until March 31, 2026, during which time NextSource has agreed not to engage in discussions with other Japanese entities regarding similar investments in the BAF project.The Company continues to advance parallel work streams to reach FID by the end of Q1 2026, supported by strong progress in front-end engineering and design ("FEED") with its engineering partner firm, Stantec. Upon a successful FID and funding, the Company will proceed with remaining equipment procurement, installation, commissioning, and ramp-up in accordance with its phased development plan.Mitsubishi Offtake Agreement.As previously announced, on August 5, 2025 the Company and Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation ("MCC"), entered into a binding, multi-year offtake agreement ("the Offtake Agreement"). Under the terms of the Offtake Agreement, the Company and MCC have partnered to supply anode active material to a major OEM for the North American EV market.The Offtake Agreement is subject to certain conditions precedents including, among other matters, the Company's obligation to secure financing for the construction of its battery anode facility ("BAF") in the United Arab Emirates ("UAE"), commencement of construction of the UAE BAF and the commencement of production from the first production line by an agreed date. In light of several factors, including delays in securing the required financing, it is unlikely that the Company will be able to meet certain of these conditions under the timeline agreed in the Offtake Agreement. The Company has commenced discussions with MCC in respect of establishing revised timeline to satisfy the conditions precedent. The Company expects that it will be able to reach an agreement on these matters with MCC in the next 30-45 days, however no assurance can be given in this regard. In the event that the timeline for meeting these conditions precedent cannot be favourably renegotiated with MCC or waived by MCC, MCC may elect to terminate the Offtake Agreement. In such instance, the Company will not have a confirmed offtake partner for the anticipated production of the BAF.About Hanwa Co., Ltd.Hanwa Co., Ltd. is a major Japanese trading company listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. It has a global presence and extensive experience in the trade of steel, non-ferrous metals, food, petroleum, and chemicals, with a specific and strategic focus on the battery material supply chain.About JOGMECThe Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security (JOGMEC) is a Japanese government agency under the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.

Market is factoring in a Trump win (the undoing of anything having to do with electricity)


Altho actually now that I think about it some more.....

It's almost certainly just mainly largely attributable to cryptos......Trump would just be icing on the cake.

There WAS once a time when people would speculate on "resources".....


But yeah, good point about the irony of it all.



Question is......Will there EVER be a revival of speculation in commodities.


Because, it SEEMS LIKE one WILL NEED TO at least (eventually) manifest !


Anyways, thanks for your thoughts......Fare well !

I agree with your statement "Theory = Market is factoring in a Trump win (the undoing of anything having to do with electricity)

Bottom-line tho for a long time has been (from a technical perspective at least), is that commodity and market-timing-wise, it's just "all-about" monitoring Canadian Resource Indexes

The Cryptos have decimated participation in commodities"

The irony about the whole scenario is cryptos complete reliance on endless electricity.

No electricity=no crypto...

crypto has become one of the biggest new creators of carbon emissions

concerns me in terms of how they will mitigate the dilution. Will they get an joint partnership on

NEXTSOURCE MATERIALS ANNOUNCES FIRST BULK SHIPMENT OF SUPERFLAKE® AND FULL OPERATION OF ITS SOLAR HYBRID PLANT AT MOLO GRAPHITE MINE
NEWS RELEASE – TORONTO, October 23, 2023

NextSource Materials Inc. (TSX:NEXT) (OTCQB:NSRCF) (“NextSource” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has made its first bulk container shipment of SuperFlake® graphite from the Company’s Molo Mine (“Molo”) in Madagascar.

This first shipment of Molo SuperFlake® graphite has been sent to the Company’s downstream technical partner’s Battery Anode Facility (BAF) to be processed into spheronized, purified graphite (SPG) that will then be further processed into coated SPG (CSPG) as part of large scale, multi-step verification tests being conducted by automotive EV supply chains in South Korea and Japan. The Company expects to receive its first series of verification test results starting in December 2023.

Shipment-of-SuperFlake

Solar Hybrid Plant Now Fully Operational

The Company is also pleased to announce it has completed commissioning and achieved full operations of its solar and battery hybrid power plant (the “Solar Hybrid Plant”) at Molo. The Solar Hybrid Plant is owned and operated by CrossBoundary Energy (CBE) under a 20-year power purchase agreement and comprises a 2.69 MWp solar photovoltaic array (“PV array”) combined with a 1.37 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS), and a 3.1 MW thermal (diesel) generator plant. The entire PV array, incorporating 4,902 photovoltaic panels covering an area of 12,663 square metres (~1.3 hectares), has been fully integrated with the BESS.

Together with load balancing provided by the BESS, the Solar Hybrid Plant will be capable of supplying up to 100% of the Molo processing plant’s power requirements during peak daylight hours, with the thermal facility supplying all baseload and off-peak power requirements, to ensure uninterrupted power supply to the mine.

The Solar Hybrid Plant has a dedicated connection to the mine camp and all auxillary buildings ensuring maximum usage of renewable energy generated. The Solar Hybrid Plant will be able to provide up to 35% of Molo’s complete system power needs from renewable energy, significantly reducing all-in sustaining costs and carbon emissions by 2,275 tonnes annually.

President and CEO, Craig Scherba, commented:

“Completing our first bulk shipment is a significant accomplishment and the result of the hard work and dedication of our operations team. As we continue the optimization phase of the commissioning process and towards rampup to nameplate production capacity for Phase 1 of Molo mine operations, NextSource is well positioned to play a critical role in the global, sustainable lithium-ion battery supply chain that is expected to see exponential growth over the next few decades. We are also delighted to have completed commissioning of our Solar Hybrid Plant, which will enable us to significantly reduce our carbon emissions and all-in sustaining costs. NextSource is committed to playing our role in global decarbonization.”

The Solar Hybrid Plant will generate clean power to a capacity of 4 GWh, with the current PV array designed with extra capacity such that no expansion of the PV array will be required for Molo production capacity increases of up to 32,000 tpa.

NextSource and CBE are committed to optimizing the solar component and increasing the amount of renewable energy available to the mine, which could include expansion of the Solar Farm or installation of wind turbines. In support of this, CBE has installed a wind measuring LIDAR device to evaluate the wind resource at the site and studying the feasibility of adding wind generation in the short term. As part of any potential future expansion of the Molo mine, the Company has set a goal of increasing the percentage generated by renewable power to at least 50 percent.

NextSource Materials Plans Strategic Collaboration With Posco International
7:41 am ET September 5, 2023 (Dow Jones) Print

By Robb M. Stewart


NextSource Materials is moving toward a supply deal with Posco International and could see it receive an investment from the South Korean trading company.

NextSource said Tuesday it signed a nonbinding memorandum of understanding with Posco for a strategic collaboration that could involve an equity investment, as well as a long-term offtake agreement for spheronized and purified graphite and the company's other graphite products.

Certain technical and economic studies will need to be completed before a definitive agreement, NextSource said.

The memorandum proposed a definitive deal for 30,000 metric tons a year of NextSource's SuperFlakegraphite concentrate and 10,000 to 15,000 tons annually of spheronized and purified graphite over a 10-year period, which would be supplied to Posco's subsidiary responsible for electric vehicle battery businesses and supplies all of South Korea's major battery cell manufacturers with finished cathode and anode materials.

I have been an optomistic share holder of this compamy for many years, thinking that their flake graffite would indeed fill a world wide need in the science and manufactuing communities. Unfortunately, this has not come to but I can hardley afford to sell out at these prices. When are they going to make a go of it?

Huh, that's some gap! I exited NEXT at around $3.30's canadian in June 2021. Has been on a very tough road.

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / June 22, 2023 / NextSource Materials Inc. (TSX:NEXT)(OTCQB:NSRCF) ("NextSource" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the first production of SuperFlake® graphite concentrate at its Molo mine in Madagascar.

President and CEO, Craig Scherba, commented:

"First production of our SuperFlake® graphite is a significant achievement for NextSource and a testament to the dedication and hard work of our commissioning and operations teams, our employees and contractors, as well as the ongoing support that we have received from the local community and government. As we ramp up the production stage of operations, the Company is in the enviable position of transitioning into a significant and sustainable global producer of high-quality graphite and anode material just as demand for their use in lithium-ion batteries is growing exponentially."

NextSource Materials Inc., Thursday, June 22, 2023, Press release picture
Molo mine workforce alongside first tonne of SuperFlake® graphite concentrate
As part of the commissioning and optimization of the processing plant, the commissioning sequence was prioritized for initial production of coarse flake concentrate, with the first tonne of production consisting of +48 mesh (jumbo size) SuperFlake® graphite.

Since initiation of plant commissioning on March 23, 2023, the commissioning and operations teams have progressed methodically through debottlenecking and optimization activities. The operations team will now shift their focus to ramping up the plant throughput to its nameplate capacity of 17,000 tonnes per annum.

The Company expects to sell all the flake graphite produced at the Molo Graphite Mine to key customers under existing offtake agreements, which includes Germany's thyssenkrupp Materials Trading GmbH and the Company's Japanese technical partner, whom is the main supplier of value-added graphite to Japan's largest anode processor that in turn supplies multiple Japanese and international OEMs with graphite anode material.

The Company continues to be engaged in advanced discussions with several major EV companies (OEMs) and has received requests for multi-tonne samples of battery anode material as part of the OEMs qualification process. As such, the Company will begin sending flake graphite qualifying material to its Battery Anode Facility (BAF) technical partners for conversion into coated, spheronized, purified graphite ("CSPG"), which is the final form of anode material that is assembled along with cathode material into finished lithium-ion batteries used in electric vehicle ("EV") applications.

Mauritius Battery Anode Facility and Global BAF Strategy

The Company announced on February 28, 2023 its strategy for the staged buildout of a series of BAFs in key geographic locations. The BAFs are value-added processing facilities that convert flake graphite into CSPG.

BAF Strategy Highlights:

Plans to construct multiple BAFs capable of producing CSPG anode material for use in lithium-ion batteries for EV applications in key jurisdictions. The BAF designs will leverage the Company's exclusive partnership with two leading value-added graphite processors and use their proprietary and well-established graphite anode processing technology, which currently produces CSPG for the supply chains of major OEMs, including Tesla and Toyota.

The first BAF will be in Mauritius (the "Mauritius BAF"), which was selected due to its proximity to the Molo Graphite Mine in Madagascar and its position on strategic shipping routes to Asian markets.

A long-term industrial lease has been signed to build the Mauritius BAF within an exisiting industrial facility in Port Louis, Mauritius. The BAF site location is also classified as an Industrial Freeport, with a 3% corporate tax rate and 0% VAT.

A technical study for the Mauritius BAF with an initial production capacity of 3,600 tpa (Line 1) of CSPG (the "Mauritius BAF Technical Study") dated February 28, 2023 estimated initial capital costs and working capital investments of US$32.8 million and annual revenues at US$33.7 million with an EBITDA of US$13.2 million. The resulting post-tax economic results demonstrated an NPV of US$106.9 million using an 8% discount rate, an IRR of 42.7% and a payback of 2.2 years.

Adding 3 additional lines (Lines 2,3,4) to the Mauritius BAF for a total capacity of 14,400 tpa of CSPG demonstrated a total post-tax NPV8% of US$439.7m, incremental capex US$74m, IRR of 45.8%

Subject to obtaining necessary funding, completion of the front-end engineering and design (FEED) study, and completion of the environmental and social impact assessment (ESIA) process, the Company is targeting the start of a 12-month construction process in Q3 2023 resulting in potential initial production at the Mauritius BAF in Q3 2024.

Evaluation of the potential construction of a BAF in North America and initiation of the application process to access various financial loans and grants offered under Canadian federal and provincial programs and under the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act.

Evaluation of the potential construction of a BAF in the United Kingdom (UK) and initiation of the application process to access various financial loans and grants offered under the UK Government Automotive Transformation Fund.

Evaluation of the potential construction of a BAF in the European Union.

Evaluation and potential construction of an artificial graphite (AG) production facility, which would enable the Company to supply AG anode material along with natural flake-based anode material.

Good article

Explains a lot regarding the market for battery materials and prices

Fact is that declining prices for battery materials has an immediate impact on the bottom line of businesses selling the product

On another note...that modular plant sure looks impressive and state of the art...should have a positive impact on the business proposition over the long-term

The whole scenario of bank loan was released by the company in a damn conference call and they even had some power point graph that is floating around somewhere maybe even be on the website. So dude everything you are saying is public information. You dont have any inside information. Your stupid polymer whatever company will also have forward looking statements and risks attached to the filings. So your whole argument is just silly. Move on. NSRCF$$

Hah, I'll keep taking your posts seriously, just like last year to buy from the $3's and downward and further downward to today's $1.95, as you though NEXT was soon, in few months to go to $4s and likely higher to $15 once they have graphite coming out of new mine. You provided great spurious vision 20-20 !

LOL forward looking statements yes. All companies have them. I have spoke with Brent not sure how speaking with him helps anything? You expect him to give inside information? You sure ask funny questions. Him like any other from any other company will only give you what they have released in SEC filings or to the public you aren't getting any special treatment trust me. Also he has never been reliable as they had other game plans long ago that didn't go as he said they would so his words dont mean shit. They can't give you anything else it is against the law. So what is the point of asking if I spoke to Brent? You feel special because you spoke with him? I mean the guy is easy for any shareholder to get ahold of or at least was. Bank debt is an obvious possible option as when you have functional machines, product and cash flow banks will lend money to companies based on expected cash flow. Banks dont lend money in this day and age to something risky not producing. Anyway you go around in circles and words. I know what I own and as I stated many times I have made a butt load of money here and will make a butt load more. You stick to your sky is falling scenario. You have investors holding 100s of millions in stock. The PPS slid before the $1 investors where even able to sell their shares so you can't blame price slide on the recent capitol fund raise. As stated before the company has done awesome maintaining PPS value. They can't do retail dilution it would drop the PPS to 2 cents as the current volume demand is way to low. You keep failing to understand the product they have will be sold for cash and they will have cash flow so your whole entire argument is just plane silly. But stick with it and keep investing in your 2024 polymer dont worry about NSCRF$$

But only time will tell. PPS speculation is much different then hypothetical speculation of what the company is going to do next.

PPS speculation is completely hypothetical and full of risks as stated in the company's PEA for Phase 2 (quote below) . On the other hand, speculating on the various range of potential ways they will raise $$$ for CAPEX of $155 mil or so for Phase 2 is completely logical and part of understanding the company's financial options (debt, JV, institutional dilution). I remember Brent telling me that Phase 2 would be Bank debt, as Phase 1 is really just to demonstrate it works and can produce quality graphite with commercial market buyers. Then banks realize it is de-risked for debt loans Guess Brent was just speculating to me as the shareholder, I don't know, but you seem to be full of a lot of hot air. Do you even talk to Brent?

The Company cautions that the PEA is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability and there is no certainty that the PEA will be realized.

As I stated a few messages ago. NSRCF is very slow getting to production much much slower then they originally said to be in production. That has been dragged out. But if all goes as planned I for sure stick to the $4+ in next 3 months and I also stick to $15 tag if not much higher. But only time will tell. PPS speculation is much different then hypothetical speculation of what the company is going to do next. I have always worked upon info provided by the company. 50% from the high of course because they aren't generating any forging cash not to mention the whole entire stock market is down or sideways so I am sorry to say considering NSRCF has held up very very well. I guess you forgot it was trading at 2 cents before RS so you are leaving a lot out like when it ran from 2 cents to 48 cents which is $4.80 post RS. But anyway. Invest dont I dont care I am in it to win it no matter what you buy or dont. But your questions dont stimulate my mind or make me question where this is going. NSRCF

Well all I can say is your speculation, projections, educated guesses, or whatever you want to call it on Feb 4, 2022 (link below) were grossly incorrect. Instead of your $15, NEXT is down 50% from Feb 2022 highs to $1.95 (US, nsrcf). So, I agree, speculation on the company or share prices in the future "would be silly", or in fact, "very silly".

https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=167764043

Once they got investors it happened with ease. None of us knew if they where going to do a joint venture or just sell the property entirely to a larger miner at the time so there where lots of scenarios in the air. Point is Ease means investors forked up cash. Of course incentive was to get shares at half price. But big point is it wasn't done through retail dilution which would of destroyed the PPS. Matter of fact it is obvious those who bought these shares at a major discount not only exercised their right to invest more but they haven't sold. Because if they are selling our PPS would be shit already with the current low volume. So there is no exiting and anyone investing would have known through due diligence that volume then and now wouldn't support any profit selling of millions of dollars. Big difference between retail dilution and investor dilution. It isnt rocket science. It makes little difference if you are buying shares at$1 if there is no demand for the shares. If they dump those millions of dollars in shares now the PPS would sink below $1 and they would have zero profit. NSRCF

I may get things mixed up on whatever what is you invest in. But all good. I guess you just want to have hypothetical conversation. I dont run the company so for me to even speculate would be silly. I only know what they are doing now and the product they are producing and where that product fits into industry. NSRCF$$

I am not ignoring anything. I only work in here and now. I dont see them doing an interest based loan if that is what you are asking. Why would they. The investors that put money into the first tranche didn't have any issue with doing it on the second as they are getting deeply discounted shares that they can sell at any time for profit. Why wouldn't someone invest to get 100%+ back on their investment. Post I am making is I am not going to speculate who is going to invest. Reality is investors have already put multi millions of dollars in twice. Those both went through without a hitch. So when phase 2 gets there one driving force is they will already be producing product and bringing in cash to further back any investment. Why would they raise capitol now for phase 2 when phase 1 hasn't even been achieved? Makes little sense in my opinion. But I guess you are saying you want all the money to be there for both phases. What do they do with the money made on product from phase 1 flush it down the toilet?
