   Largo komt enkele dagen voor het uitbrengen van de cijfers met de mededeling dat ze een lading ijzererts verkocht hebben van 14.000 ton en dat ze de komen vier jaar 500.000ton per jaar zullen kunnen produceren en leveren. Een ton ijzererts doet op dit moment circa $100 dus dit levert Largo $50,0M aan extra omzet per jaar op. Largo heeft over de eerste 9 maanden van 2020 een omzet behaald van $77,7M (heel 2019 $140,0M en heel 2018 $521,4M).
   
   Met aantrekkende Vanadiumprijzen, extra inkomsten uit ijzererts en het starten met het produceren van VRFB’s wordt het aandeel Largo op zijn minst interessant om te volgen.

   Paulo Misk, President and Chief Executive Officer for Largo, stated: "Production was largely impacted during the quarter as a result of the planned shutdown to complete the upgrades and improvements associated with the Company’s cost-efficient nameplate increase to 1,100 tonnes of V2O5 per month. The related work for this project concluded in January 2021 and we expect to reach the new nameplate capacity by the end of Q2 2021, following the required commissioning and ramp up phases." He continued: “Strong vanadium demand in the Company’s key regions has continued in Q1 2021 with solid volume increases in the steel and chemical sectors. This was highlighted by a more than 50% increase in Europe’s average V2O5 price per lb during Q1 2021 as quoted by Fastmarkets Metal Bulletin. As a result of the severe impacts of COVID-19 pandemic, vanadium demand from the aerospace sector continues to lag, but we expect a gradual recovery from Q3 2021 onwards. Overall vanadium demand is expected to remain solid throughout 2021 as stimulus packages linked to the COVID-19 economic recovery are implemented. A continuous focus on global carbon emission reduction will also support the increased use of vanadium in the traditional steel market as well as in the fast-growing long duration energy storage sector. Recent sales of large scale VRFB systems around the world is further confirming the adaptation of this technology and we remain extremely focused on developing our clean energy division to service to this market with our VCHARGE± battery.”

   Integrated vanadium producer Largo Resources (TSX: LGO; OTCQB: LGORF) is charting a course towards capturing 3% or about 1,400 megawatt-hours of the long-duration energy storage battery market by 2025, company executives said during the company’s first ‘battery day’ presentation this week. Largo, which had spun out Largo Clean Energy in December 2020 to provide long-duration vanadium redox flow battery systems for the renewable energy storage market, expects the market’s total installed storage capacity to total about 49,000 MWh by 2025 – worth an estimated $16 billion. The company intends to capture value in a rapidly expanding market.
   
   A recent Wood Mackenzie report found global energy storage deployment surged 62% in 2020, with five gigawatt, or nine-gigawatt hours, of new capacity added. This brought the total energy storage market to more than 27 GWh. WoodMac expects the global market to grow 27-fold by 2030. “The long-duration energy storage battery market has reached an inflexion point with the advent of the new green economy,” said Largo CEO Paulo Misk during the battery day event. The firm’s vanadium batteries were lower cost and lasted longer than rival solutions, such as lithium-ion battery energy storage. “Largo brings the missing piece to the puzzle, which is to provide stable, low-cost VRFB technology to market,” said Misk.
   
   The vanadium for the batteries comes from Largo’s 17,690-hectare Maracás Menchen mine in the east-central state of Bahia, in Brazil. Misk expects the company’s vertically integrated approach to result in a 30 to 40% reduced cost of deploying VRFBs than traditional vendors.
   
   While vanadium battery technology is not new, it is widely viewed as an up-and-coming industrial solution for renewable energy providers looking to scale up. The technology essentially works by shuttling vanadium electrons between their different valence states.
   
   It is considered as a superior solution for applications with long-duration discharge requirements of six hours or more. “That is where VRFBs really come into their own,” said Misk.
   
   Largo Clean Energy expects to harvest three revenue streams from the VRFB business, capturing potential margins of 110% over the conventional vanadium mining and marketing model.
   
   The first revenue is taken during the initial capital outlay to install a VRFB facility. The second is a recurring revenue stream from the lease of vanadium electrolyte for use in the facility over the 25-year-plus life; the third comes from the net present value inherent in the vanadium the company recovers from the facility upon shutdown. Largo Clean Energy is commercialising VRFB technology previously owned by VionX Energy, a firm involved in the renewable energy storage market since 2002. “The patented VRFB technology and proprietary vanadium electrolyte processing system can deliver cost-competitive performance over its life cycle with nominal degradation. In general, the VRFB is intrinsically safe with no fire risk from thermal runaway,” said Misk. Additionally, the contained vanadium electrolyte can be recycled for reuse in other VRFB installations at the end of the battery life. “Over time we expect to build a portfolio of electrolyte rental assets which will potentially attract very high yields,” said Misk.
   
   Largo provided an example in which the equivalent vanadium pentoxide value of its battery was $12.39 compared with the current market prices at $7.50-8/ per lb. This means that selling vanadium through its battery business provides a potential 50 to 60% upside relative to current vanadium prices.
   
   “We view Largo’s integrated lease model as a significant opportunity to capture incremental value from the company’s low-cost vanadium production while also potentially helping to grow the vanadium redox flow battery market opportunity,” analyst Andrew Wong said in a research note. “Overall, we see the potential for a valuation re-rate if Largo is able to execute on the ambitious growth plans and prove the long-term viability of the integrated lease business model to generate steady and sustainable cash flows,” Wong said. Largo anticipates capital spending of $4.8 million in 2021, $3.4 million in 2022, and a total of $35 million through 2025. Capital requirements are relatively low due to simplicity of the manufacturing process. Largo has also identified ways to reduce costs of its V-Charge batteries, and expects a 40 to 50% reduction in system costs through system engineering. “This should flow into Largo’s margin as product pricing is not based on system cost,” said Wong.

   TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Largo Resources Ltd. ("Largo" or the "Company") (TSX: LGO) (NASDAQ: LGO) announces quarterly production of 3,070 tonnes (6.8 million lbs1) of vanadium pentoxide (“V2O5”) and sales of 3,027 tonnes of V2O5 equivalent from its Maracás Menchen Mine in Q2 2021.
   
   Paulo Misk, President and Chief Executive Officer of Largo, stated: “I am very encouraged by the ongoing development of our clean energy division as highlighted by the recent signing of our first milestone battery sales contract with a world-class partner, EGPE. We believe this further validates the Company’s innovative value proposition for energy storage customers and underpins a significant growth opportunity for Largo.” He continued: “In Q2 2021, the Company concluded the commissioning and ramp up activities associated with its kiln and cooler upgrades, including improvements of the mining, crushing and milling circuits to support a new nameplate production capacity of 1,100 tonnes of V2O5 per month. We expect to reach the new nameplate capacity in Q3 2021. Following these activities, global recoveries2 began to improve in Q2 2021 and the Company achieved 82.2% in June. Looking ahead, we expect to achieve our 2021 production and sales guidance through a rigorous operating and sales program during the remainder of the year.
   
   “We are also pleased to report that commissioning of the Company’s V2O3 processing plant has begun and production is expected by the end of the third quarter. V2O3 is an important high purity material required in the manufacturing of master alloys, chemical products and electrolyte used in VRFBs. The addition of this product should increase the Company’s high purity market share as this sector gradually recovers and will support the development of our clean energy division with its use in the manufacturing of electrolyte.” He concluded: “Vanadium prices continued to edge higher in Q2 2021 following limited material availability and increased demand from the steel industry. During Q2 2021, the average European Fastmarkets Metalbulletin price per lb of V2O5 was US$8.19, representing an increase of 16% over Q1 2021 and 33% above the average price seen in Q2 2020. We expect vanadium prices to remain elevated and well above long-term averages throughout the second half of 2021.”
   
   Q2 2021 Production Results
   
   Total production from the Maracás Menchen Mine was 3,070 tonnes of V2O5 in Q2 2021, representing a 20% increase over Q2 2020 and a 55% increase over Q1 2021. V2O5 production was 1,092 tonnes in April, with 1,075 tonnes being produced in May and 903 tonnes in June. Lower production seen in June was largely due to a reduction in the total ore mined as a result of the Company’s transition to a new mining contractor. The full transition was completed in Q2 2021.
   
   In Q2 2021, 340,734 tonnes of ore with an effective V2O5 grade3 of 1.15% were mined compared to 257,357 tonnes in Q2 2020 with an effective V2O5 grade3 of 1.20%. The Company also produced 98,372 tonnes of concentrate ore with an average V2O5 grade of 3.23% in Q2 2021 compared to 99,059 tonnes in Q2 2020 with an average V2O5 grade of 3.20%.
   
   The Company achieved a global recovery2 of 79.9% in Q2 2021, being 1% lower than the 80.8% achieved in Q2 2020 and 3% higher than the 77.4% achieved in Q1 2021. The global recovery2 in April was 78.8%, with 78.5% achieved in May and 82.0% achieved in June. Global recoveries2 in April and May were largely impacted by the commissioning and ramp up activities associated with the kiln and cooler upgrades. These activities concluded in Q2 2021.
   
   Clean Energy Division Update

   Beste ZwarteRidder/Haegen bedankt voor dit inzicht op Largo. De koers LGO lijkt gunstig te reageren op deze cijfers. Wel ging er een zeer aanzienlijke koersdaling aan vooraf. Het is wel ongeveer hetzelfde vaarwater als AMG, maar doet Largo ook aan fabricage legeringen en halffabrikaten of is het een puur mijnbouw bedrijf?

    LGO is een primair mijnbedrijf en richt zich hoofdzakelijk op het ontginnen van vanadiumpentoxide (i.t.t.

    LGO is zover ik kan zien iets kleiner dan AMG en dus minder divers. Het koersverloop: -20% in een week valt precies samen met AMG (-13). De stijging van +13% in 2 dagen is denk ik ingegeven door dit gepubliceerde rapport en verbeterd beurssentiment. Dan ben ik benieuwd waar dit toe leidt.

    Q2 2021 Highlights
    
    At the Company’s investor-oriented virtual ‘Battery Day’ held on June 9, 2021, the Company discussed its transformational strategic shift to the production of vanadium based electrical energy storage systems. The Company believes that moving to vertically integrate its financially strong vanadium operations with its superior vanadium redox flow battery (“VRFB”) technology will present a higher value market opportunity for the Company’s vanadium products in the future and will also create a unique competitive advantage for Largo in the rapidly growing long duration energy storage market
    Aligned with its commitment to the energy storage sector, Ian Robertson has been appointed as Co-Chair of the Board of the Company and as interim President of Largo Clean Energy Corp. (“LCE”)
    LCE entered into its first VCHARGE± VRFB sales contract with Enel Green Power España (“EGPE”) and received notice to proceed on July 26, 2021
    The Company reported net income of $8.4 million vs. a net loss of $7.0 million in Q2 2020
    The Company recognized revenues of $54.3 million, 546% higher than Q2 2020
    Cash provided before working capital items of $16.2 million vs. 1.0 million in Q2 2020
    The Company exited Q2 2021 with a cash balance of $80.7 million
    The Company will host a webcast and conference call for its Q2 2021 results on Wednesday, August 11th at 10:00 a.m. ET
    Other Significant Highlights
    
    Total V2O5 equivalent sales of 3,027 tonnes, a 197% increase over Q2 2020
    Revenues per lb sold2 of $8.14, a 119% increase over Q2 2020

    Vanadium demand in all of the Company’s key markets remained strong in Q2 2021: Average European V2O5 price per lb of $8.19, representing a 16% increase over Q1 2021 and 33% above Q2 2020
    Commissioning of vanadium trioxide (“V2O3”) processing plant initiated
    2021 production, sales, cash operating costs excluding royalties1 and capital expenditure guidance maintained
    TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Largo Resources Ltd. ("Largo" or the "Company") (TSX: LGO) (NASDAQ: LGO) today announces its second quarter 2021 financial results highlighted by revenues of $54.3 million and net income of $8.4 million.
    
    Strategic Updates
    
    During the second quarter, the Company hosted an investor-oriented virtual ‘Battery Day’ during which the Company discussed its transformational strategic shift to the production of vanadium based electrical energy storage systems. The Company believes that moving to vertically integrate its financially strong vanadium operations with its superior long duration energy storage technology will present a higher value market opportunity for the Company’s vanadium products in the future and will also create a unique competitive advantage for Largo in the rapidly growing long duration energy storage market.
    
    Aligned with its belief in the opportunities expected to arise in the transition to VRFB production, the Company announced the appointment of Mr. Ian Robertson as Co-Chair of the Board of Directors of the Company and as Interim President of LCE. During the quarter, the Company continued to augment its strategic, commercial, technical and manufacturing teams including the appointment of Mr. Salvatore Minopoli as VP of LCE Operations.
    
    During the quarter, LCE secured a facility in Massachusetts, U.S. for its global headquarters, including its product development and stack manufacturing centre, which is sufficiently sized to support a manufacturing capacity of energy systems representing up to 1.4 gigawatt hours of storage per year. The team moved into the office facility in May 2021 and building modifications are underway for the installation and commissioning of the stack manufacturing capacity and test equipment required to support the business plan.
    
    On July 20, 2021, the Company announced that LCE had entered into its first VCHARGE± VRFB sales contract with EGPE and has now received notice to proceed for this installation. Under the contract, LCE is obligated to deliver a five hour, 6.1 MWh VCHARGE± system for a project in Spain with expected commissioning in Q4 2022.
    
    With respect to continued VRFB deployments, LCE is focused on obtaining the required regulatory certification to support expected 2022 project sales, with certifications on track to be received by the end of Q4 2021. In addition, the Company is progressing with establishing the supply chain and resources required to deliver on the anticipated project deployment timelines and cost targets.
    
    Ian Robertson, Co-Chair of Largo, stated: “During our Battery Day we confirmed our belief that vertically integrating our highly efficient vanadium production capacity with our superior vanadium based energy storage technology will present a more financially and societally valuable proposition for the Company. I am pleased with the recently announced milestone energy storage system sales contract with a world-class partner and remain confident that it represents validation of the transformational opportunity to generate substantial long-term value for the Company. Looking ahead, we see the planned change in our name to “Largo Inc.” as evidence of the Company’s confidence in the significant opportunity that exists for Largo to profitably participate in the growing long duration energy storage market. We expect to proceed with the Company’s name change and extensive rebrand in late Q3 2021.”
    
    Paulo Misk, President and Chief Executive Officer for Largo, stated: “Continued momentum across all key markets resulted in increased vanadium demand and strong revenue growth for the Company in Q2 2021. This has led to a substantial increase in revenues per lb2 sold of 119% over Q2 2020 and contributed to healthy cash flow generation, building upon our solid cash position. Following the additional debt funding obtained in Q2 2021 of $15 million, the Company exited the quarter with a cash balance of $80.7 million. We will continue to capitalize on the strong demand in the vanadium markets we serve with the goal of improving profit margins going forward.”

    Geen reactie tot vandaag in de conference call. In het kort.
    
    Het ijzererts bevatte een tweetal extra elementen (verontreinigingen) titanium en sodium (Na) en met name het laatste element blijkt moelijk te verkopen zijn binnen Largo's (Chinezen) bestaande netwerk.
    
    Misschien kan iemand met een meer scheikundige achtergrond hierop reageren. Overigens heeft de CEO P. Misk goede hoop het ijzererts alsnog te kunnen slijten.

    Ik ga toch nog even afwachten wat de impact van Evergrande op het aandeel gaat zijn.
    Vanadium wordt in de bouw gebruikt en China is een erg grote afnemer bij Largo.
    
    Ik heb interesse maar ga het nog even uitkijken.
