5E Advanced Materials Reports Customer Validation Progress and Advances Toward 2026 Investment Decision
5E Advanced Materials Inc. provided a business update following its fiscal first-quarter conference call. The company highlighted progress toward a Final Investment Decision $(FID)$ targeted for 2026. Key developments include federal recognition of boron, advancement in customer validation with full-scale product testing underway, and a 20-ton shipment of high-purity boric acid delivered to Taiwan for furnace trials. Additional LCD-glass producers are scheduled to receive shipments, and 1,000 lbs. of boric acid have been supplied to a U.S. boron-carbide manufacturer. 5E has secured the remaining federal lode claims for its colemanite deposit and is beginning work to upgrade its mineral resource statement. The company is nearing completion of FEED-ready engineering deliverables, with previously disclosed Phase 1 project economics including an approximately 39.5-year mine life, about 16% after-tax IRR, and a roughly US$469 million after-tax NPV. Priorities moving forward include securing non-dilutive U.S. capital support, converting customer progress into commercial offtake agreements, and executing FEED and pre-FID workstreams.
