Driving the circular economy for Li-ion batteries across the UK
Wolverhampton (reciclaje de baterías de iones de litio)
Recyclus successfully concluded the commissioning phase at its Wolverhampton plant in September 2023, the first plant in the UK with the capacity to recycle Li-ion batteries on an industrial scale. The plant is now fully operational and receiving a steady influx of Li-ion battery waste from various commercial sources, for which it has already achieved a very significant recycling rate of up to 45% net black mass yield. Recyclus has also accumulated the 100 tonnes of feedstock allowed under the EA permit. Since completing the commissioning phase, Recyclus has focused on building up production volumes at the plant, which is permitted to process 22,000 tonnes of Li-ion batteries per annum.
Recyclus' state-of-the-art Wolverhampton facility processes waste Li-ion batteries into black mass, which contains critical battery metals that can be reprocessed and sold back into the battery manufacturing supply chain. Recyclus anticipates the receipt of gate fees for collection and storage of spent Li-ion batteries, and from the sale of black mass and other recycled materials produced during the recycling process. Through the provision of this much-needed technology, Recyclus is uniquely positioned to address the challenges associated with increasing levels of battery waste created by the global sustainable shift towards electrification. The Wolverhampton site is expected to process 8,300 tonnes of battery waste in its first full year of production and represents the first of five plants which Recyclus aims to construct in the UK.
Post-period, Recyclus signed agreements to receive Li-ion batteries for recycling from Servicesure, a prominent network of more than 600 independent autocentres in the UK, and from Beryl, a UK-based shared sustainable transport operator.
Tipton (lead acid recycling)
Recyclus' Tipton lead acid battery recycling plant entered its commissioning phase in October 2023, having received final clearance by the EA to commence fully automated operations. Commissioning was paused in late 2023 to enable Recyclus to focus resources at its Li-ion processing plant at Wolverhampton and is expected to resume in Q2 2024. The plant is designed to process up to 12 tonnes per hour of lead acid batteries at an industrial-scale using a fully automated system that does not release any particle or gas emissions into the atmosphere, recycling them into their constituent parts to recover lead, acid and plastic materials for reuse in a wide range of industries. By recycling lead acid batteries in a sustainable manner, Recyclus will play a key role in keeping resources in use for longer, minimising waste and reducing the environmental impact of spent batteries.
Recyclus also achieved patent-pending status for its proprietary lead paste desulphurisation process developed from the plant in July 2023. The innovative process significantly reduces the sulphur content of the recycled lead paste to produce 'alpha' paste, which when smelted produces lower levels of hazardous sulphur oxide (SOx) and in turn requires lower levels of energy through the smelting process which reduces smelting costs. The process also reduces water consumption by assisting the filtration rate during smelting. Recyclus continues to work towards achieving patent status for this pioneering solution which will address multiple key concerns in the lead acid battery recycling industry.
LiBox Battery Storage and Transportation Boxes
In November 2024, Recyclus made its first delivery of its LiBox storage and transportation boxes to automotive retail group Waylands, which is using them to store waste Li-ion batteries across its Volvo outlets in Bristol, Reading and Oxford.
Recyclus has developed LiBox as part of its commitment to the safe handling of Li-ion batteries, and provision of an integrated one point of contact waste management solution to customers. The boxes hold UN-standard safety certification having satisfied the rigorous safety standards required and are also compliant with ADR certification P911(1) which is required for the transportation of hazardous goods. The award of both certifications confirmed Recyclus' ability to safely store and transport batteries, highlighting the importance of security and safety in the battery supply chain.
Citas
In July 2023, Recyclus appointed automotive industry experts Andrew Goss and Phil Hodgkinson as consultants with effect from 1 July 2023. Their extensive sector knowledge, experience and global networks across the automotive and gigafactory sectors will prove invaluable as Recyclus embarks on the next phase of its development to become a leader for the UK in the circular economy for batteries, accelerating the transition towards a green low carbon economy.
In September 2023, Recyclus appointed experienced automotive industry consultant, Sadie Wigglesworth, as sales and marketing adviser to boost Recyclus' visibility, grow existing partnerships and attract new ones.
Post period, Recyclus appointed Anwar Sattar as its Scientific Director. As an accomplished Chemical Engineer with strong expertise in Li-ion battery recycling, Anwar will support Recyclus' in accelerating the roll-out of additional plants across the UK and further refinement of its black mass recovery process.
Proposed Acquisition of Recyclus
Technology Minerals' proposed acquisition of the remaining issued share capital of Recyclus continues to progress well and marks the next stage of Technology Minerals' growth as a key player in enabling the transition towards a cleaner, lower carbon future in the UK and beyond. The acquisition will crystallise Technology Minerals' efforts to create a fully circular economy for battery metals by consolidating both the minerals exploration and battery recycling businesses in line with the Company's twin-track strategy.
Desarrollando un sistema de reciclaje móvil en asociación con la Universidad de Birmingham
Recyclus, in collaboration with the UoB, was awarded a grant of £1.96 million from the UK Government's Innovate UK to create a mobile battery recycling unit capable of safely handling any kind of Li-ion battery in March 2023.
Recyclus is leading the project to design and build a compact prototype Universal Battery Recycling System ("UBRS") based upon Recyclus' existing technology for industrial scale Li-ion battery recycling, in the form of a mobile recycling truck. UoB will provide leading edge 3D printing techniques incorporating additive manufacturing for the required cutting tools. The system will reduce Li-ion batteries into their constituent parts including black mass, whilst being completely sealed and emission free.
The Recyclus mobile unit will provide a reliable, cost-effective and automated solution for the safe and environmentally friendly recycling of Li-ion batteries across the UK, to accelerate recovery of the critical raw materials needed for the transition towards electrification whilst significantly reducing the use of landfill. Securing the funding from Innovate UK is a strong endorsement for Recyclus, and the vital nature of the project.
Post period, Recyclus gained further recognition of its collaborative efforts at The Engineer Collaborate to Innovate awards, in which it won in the Automotive category. This award stands as an endorsement for the innovative work that Recyclus has accomplished through its collaboration with the UoB.
Partnership with Warwick Manufacturing Group ("WMG")
Recyclus, following a competitive tender process, was selected by WMG, University of Warwick in November 2023 to design, manufacture, supply, install, commission and train operators for the use of an industrial grade Li-ion battery shredder. Based on Recyclus' pioneering industrial scale Li-ion battery recycling plant at Wolverhampton, the shredder will enable WMG to shred cells and modules in a safe manner to further advance its research in battery recycling technologies and black mass. The partnership is a strong endorsement of Recyclus' innovative technology, leading expertise and capability in the field, and further evidence Technology Minerals' commitment towards providing solutions to ensure national security of supply of battery metals for the UK.
This agreement strengths the already established relationship between WMG and Recyclus, having previously created a four-year Engineering Doctorate focused on battery recycling technologies. WMG is a leading academic group providing research, education and knowledge transfer in engineering, management, manufacturing and technology.
UK Battery Taskforce
In October 2023, Technology Minerals was appointed as a founding member of the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) UK Battery Strategy Taskforce, to work alongside the government to accelerate the UK's goal of achieving a globally competitive battery supply chain by 2030 which supports economic prosperity and the net zero transition. The appointment is a clear indication of Technology Minerals' status as a pioneer in the sector with a strong reputation amongst industry stakeholders and academic institutions.
Exploration Projects for Battery Metals - Progressing battery metals' assets up the value chain
Technology Minerals holds a globally diverse portfolio of exploration projects focused on the critical minerals required for the global transition to net zero. These include lithium, cobalt, copper, nickel and manganese, based at projects in Ireland, Spain, the USA and Cameroon.
Technology Minerals' project generation and incubation strategy selects early-stage concepts and projects with the potential to increase in value through prudent deployment of risk capital to attract larger funding and joint venture partners to advance their development. This strategy provides the Company with the ability to add significant value to the portfolio without incurring the more substantial financial and dilutionary costs normally associated with public companies developing exploration assets.
Leinster saw further advances and encouraging results during the past six months with assay results from the initial Knockeen shallow trench sampling programme grading as high as 2.55% Li2O as of December 2023, with several grab samples from large pegmatite boulders returning grades as high as 3.00% Li2O. The Leinster Project continues to return consistently positive results and reaffirms the value potential of the prospect.
In July 2023, GBML exercised its Second Option with respect to the Lithium Project, acquiring an addition 37.5% equity interest, bringing GBML's total equity interest in the Project to 55%. The Leinster Project is operated under an exclusive Earn-in and Option agreement with GBML with no project expenditure required by the Company.
In July 2023 at the TMC Project in Cameroon, a desktop evaluation report by Dr Sandy Archibald of Aurum Exploration Ltd, based on new geological and geophysical data obtained, was submitted to Cameroon Ministry of Mines, identifying areas for a proposed field-based sampling programme. The TMC Project consists of five exploration permits covering an area of 2,456 km2 and are situated in the East Region of southeastern Cameroon. They are believed to be prospective for cobalt-nickel laterites.

Financial Review,en
The Group made a loss for the period of £1.5 million (H1 2022: £0.7 million loss). In July and September 2023, the Company raised a total of £1.2 million from a long-term shareholder through the issue of Convertible Loan Notes. In November 2023, Technology Minerals announced that it has extended the exercise period of warrants to subscribe for an aggregate of 353,164,631 Ordinary shares exercisable at 3.375p per Ordinary share and 6,666,666 Ordinary shares exercisable at 2.25p per Ordinary share, from 17 November 2023 to 31 January 2024. In January 2024, an offer was made to warrant holders to exercise on proposed terms. 11.1 million new ordinary shares were issued from the exercise of such warrants raising £0.1 million. Since the end of the period, £2.1 million has been raised from drawings under Convertible Bond facilities.
Riesgos
The Company was incorporated recently, in 2021 and lacks a significant operating history, and therefore, investors have little basis on which to evaluate the Company's ability to achieve its objective of identifying, acquiring and operating one or more companies, businesses, prospects or assets.
In the opinion of the Directors, based on the Group's financial projections, they have satisfied themselves that the business is a going concern. In the period, the Company raised a total of £1.2 million from a long-term shareholder through the issue of Convertible Loan Notes (before expenses) to finance the working capital requirements of the Group. Since the period end, the Company raised £0.1 million from the exercise of warrants and has drawn a further £2.1 million from other Convertible Bond facilities, of which £1.5 million was drawn as the first tranche under a £5.5 million facility drawable according to an agreed schedule at the Company's option. The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and therefore the accounts are prepared on a going concern basis.
The Directors do not consider that the Company's principal risks and uncertainties have changed since the publication of its annual report and accounts for the 12-month period ended 30 June 2023 on 31 October 2023, which contains a detailed explanation of the risks relevant to the Company and is available at: www.technologyminerals.co.uk/investors-section/documents-results-and-reports.
Outlook
Technology Minerals has made significant progress over the last six months, which has further solidified its position as a key player in the transition to net zero as the world continues to electrify in 2024. The Board is pleased to have seen excellent progress at Recyclus, which has hit significant milestones including the completion of the commissioning phase at its cutting-edge Wolverhampton Li-ion battery recycling plant, in addition to beginning the commissioning phase at the Tipton lead acid facility.
As such, Recyclus is positioned for further development and growth in the second half and beyond as it contributes towards the development of a circular economy for both Li-ion and traditional lead acid batteries. Recyclus plans to open multiple Li-ion and lead acid battery recycling facilities over the coming years.
Recyclus' ongoing R&D partnerships with academic institutions developing the next generation in battery recycling technology will further cement it as a pioneer in the sector. Having been selected by the Government as a founding member of the UK Battery Strategy taskforce, in a strong endorsement of its expertise, Technology Minerals is positioned to help drive the UK's journey towards net zero.
The Company continues to progress across its critical battery metal exploration assets, having implemented strategies to add value to the portfolio in a capital light manner whilst seeking partnerships to gain further capital, creating an additional revenue stream for the portfolio and shareholders.
The Company continued progress of the proposed acquisition of Recyclus. The latest iteration of the Prospectus was submitted to FCA recently and a further draft expected to be submitted next month. Consequently, the Company expects the prospectus to be circulated for shareholder approval in Q2 2024. The acquisition will further enhance Technology Minerals strategy to promote long term sustainable growth through the expansion of Recyclus' commercial footprint in the UK, making it a key contributor in the global transition towards electrification.

Notas a la información financiera intermedia consolidada condensada
1. INFORMACIÓN GENERAL
The Company is incorporated and domiciled in England and the registered number of the Company is 13446965. The registered office is 18 Savile Row, London, W1S 3PW.
2. BASES DE PREPARACIÓN
The accounting policies, methods of computation and presentation used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial information are shown below.
No ha habido cambios en las cifras reportadas como resultado de nuevas normas o interpretaciones de informes.
Base de preparación
The condensed interim financial statements ("Interim Financial Statements") have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". The Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2023, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in conformity with the Companies Act 2006 and are available at www.tecnologíaminerals.co.uk.
The financial information set out in this interim report is unaudited and does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 434 of the Companies Act 2006.
Comparativos
The comparatives are for the unaudited 6-month period ended 31 December 2022 and for the audited year to 30 June 2023. The business is not subject to seasonal variations. The report of the auditors on the accounts for the year ended 30 June 2023 was unqualified.
Preocupación continua
In the period, the Company raised a total of £1.2 million from a long-term shareholder through the issue of Convertible Loan Notes (before expenses) to finance the working capital requirements of the Group. Since the period end, the Company raised £0.1 million from the exercise of warrants and has drawn a further £2.1 million from other Convertible Bond facilities, of which £1.5 million was drawn as the first tranche under a £5.5 million facility drawable according to an agreed schedule at the Company's option. In the opinion of the Directors, based on the Group's financial projections, they have satisfied themselves that the business is a going concern. The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and therefore the accounts are prepared on a going concern basis.
3. POLÍTICAS CONTABLES SIGNIFICATIVAS
The Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies adopted in the Group's most recent annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2023.
4. ESTIMACIONES Y JUICIOS CONTABLES CRÍTICOS
The preparation of the Interim Financial Statements require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions.
The judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in the Interim Financial Statements, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty, were the same as those applied in the Group's last annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2023.
5. INFORMES GEOGRÁFICOS Y DE NEGOCIOS
The Group's chief operating decision maker is considered to be the executive directors (the 'Executive Board'). The Executive Board evaluates the financial performance of the Group by reference to its reportable segments: mineral exploration and holding company expenses. The activities of Recyclus Group in battery recycling are not a reportable business segment because the Company's interest in the share capital of Recyclus Group is currently less than 50%.
A continuación se muestra un resumen de los resultados, activos y pasivos del Grupo por segmento reportable tal como se presentan a la Junta Ejecutiva.

6. PÉRDIDA POR ACCIÓN
Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period. Warrants issued by the Company that could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future have not been included the calculation of diluted EPS because they are antidilutive for the period(s) presented. See note 11 for further information on the warrants.

11. WARRANTS
£0.735m of convertible bonds issued during the period had 73,500,000 share warrants attached giving the holders the right to acquire shares in the Company at an exercise price of 2 pence per share. The share warrants are exercisable from 28 February 2024 and expire on 31 August 2025. See note 12 for details on the convertible bonds.
The fair value of the warrants issued during the period was calculated using the Black-Scholes mode using the following information:
|
|
|
|
Número de acciones que podrían adquirirse en el ejercicio del warrant |
73,500,000 | ||
Valor razonable de un warrant CLN | £0.0052 | ||
Precio de ejercicio de la acción warrant | £0.02 | ||
Fecha de concesión | 31 de agosto de 2023 | ||

Volatilidad esperada*,% | 79% | ||
Tasa de crecimiento de dividendos esperada,% | 0% | ||
Risk-free interest rate (3 month bond),% | 5.15% |
*El cálculo de la volatilidad implica un juicio importante por parte de los Directores debido a la ausencia de datos comerciales históricos de la Compañía en la fecha de la concesión.
The fair value of the share warrants is £385k and has been treated as a finance cost amortised over convertible bond term.
The total number of warrants outstanding at 31 December 2023 was 446,919,087 (31 December 2022: 363,625,840; 30 June 2023: 373,419,087)
