This morning in the 4th Qtr 21 conference call it was mentioned that Electroovaya was looking to establish a US battery manufacturing plant.  They now have an NMC cathode that they intend to use with a Lithium metal anode. 

Cal posted this link on the Lithium Americas Agoracom board.

The battery factory has since been removed from Thacker Pass to my knowledge (as it would require extra permitting), but read below and then ponder what happens if LAC simply moves the battery plant to other property it owns? Reading the old proposal for the Nevada mine at the Bureau of Land Management website, I could not help but notice that Lithium Americas has laid out its plans to build a lithium battery factory. You can read the entire proposal here, but the bulk is located in document "DEIS Chapters 1-6." On page 1-3 we are greeted with:

"Construction and operation of a battery production facility" and "Battery production complex" on pages 2-8.

section 2.2.5.9 Battery Production contains the statement "The coated  cathode and seperator would be combined with a Lithium metal anode."

To me this sounds a lot like what Electrovaya's solid state cell is described.??  I guess we will just and wait for the announcements to start to trickle out!!
