Japan battery industry now eyes Tanzania’s nickel, cobalt, copper

Japanese battery industry is targeting cleaner nickel, cobalt and copper from Tanzania’s Kabanga Nickel project, managed by Tembo Nickel.

This comes after Lifezone Metals Limited signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security (JOGMEC).

This strategic partnership aims to support JOGMEC's efforts to secure cleaner metals from the Kabanga Nickel Project for the Japanese battery industry.

Under the terms of the MOU, Lifezone will collaborate with JOGMEC to facilitate the supply of metals from Kabanga, through Lifezone's portion of marketing rights, for Japan's growing battery market, ensuring a sustainable and traceable metals value chain.
