Huangpu Mining / About Us

About Us

A NEW BENCHMARK MINING COMPANY


About Us

Huangpu Mining is at the forefront of the creative EV revolution and is paving the way for an Asian cobalt supply chain.

Cobalt is driving the electric vehicle revolution. Huangpu Mining provides investors with the opportunity to engage in a pure-play cobalt company based in China. We plan to explore, develop, and refine cobalt material in China and Asia for resale in the EV market.

Our Strategy

Huangpu Mining's objective is to explore, develop, and purify ethically sourced cobalt for resale in the Asian battery market and beyond. We are working on our project in Huangpu, Guangdong.

Huangpu Mining's Board and Management teams are represented by a diverse group of experienced mine-builders, mine-operators, financiers, and company-makers, putting Huangpu Mining at the vanguard of the cobalt-driven battery trend in the future years.

Our Investment Highlights

Our Solution:

  • China produces and processes the majority of the cobalt in Asia;
  • Deposits with high grade, low capital, and simple metallurgy;
  • In China, there is an opportunity for a vertically integrated cobalt solution.

Fully Permitted Refinery

  • In Asia, investments are still being made to build an authorized cobalt extraction refinery capable of manufacturing battery material.
  • Processing material from Huangpu, Guangdong, or third-party sources forms great potential.
  • Rail access is simple due to the existing infrastructure.

A Pathway to Cobalt Production

  • In China, inferred mineral resources of 5 million tons grading 0.12% cobalt equivalent have been discovered.
  • Access to strong management with extensive exploration and development experience on a worldwide scale.

Our Approach

Huangpu Mining is dedicated to incorporating responsible mining techniques into all aspects of its operations. Our guiding concept is to provide safety to people, the environment, and the communities in which we work. We will gradually create effective procedures to manage the positive and negative aspects of our business as our activities and operations expand.

Community Relations

Huangpu Mining is aware that the success of the business is contingent on the cooperation between stakeholders. As a result, we perceive our host communities, governments, and other local stakeholders to be essential partners throughout the mine life cycle, from pre-production exploration to operations and closure.

Respect, trust, and mutual understanding are the foundations of good stakeholder relationships, according to us. We communicate with our partners in an open, honest, and considerate manner in order to develop these partnerships.

We also recognize that we can be a catalyst for local community and economic development. Wherever possible, our operations strive to provide regional economic opportunities, local employment, local procurement opportunities, infrastructure availability, and tax revenues for service implementation. We work in close partnership with our host communities, governments and other local stakeholders to maximize the benefits of our activities for stakeholders.

Safety and Health

The safety and well-being of our employees, contractors, and host communities are of the utmost importance to us. Mining-related damages and illnesses are, in our opinion, unacceptable. As a result, the 'zero harm' philosophy guides our approach to safety and health, ensuring that every employee returns home safely every day. We take all measures to ensure that all of our activities have a solid safety culture.

Environment

We acknowledge that mining operations have the potential to have negative environmental consequences. For that respect, we take a proactive, risk-based approach to environmental management, with strong safeguards in place to help us minimize our environmental effects while also guaranteeing the environment's survival for future generations. The 'zero harm' philosophy drives our approach to environmental management, in accordance with our entire approach to responsible mining.

Human Rights

We understand that it is our responsibility to respect the human rights of those who might be affected by our actions. This includes both our direct impact on human rights and our supply chain's impact on human rights.

At our company, we take the issue of child labor very seriously. Our commitment to eliminating this problem extends not only to our own commercial activities but also to our supply chains. We prioritize the eradication of child labor in all forms and have taken concrete steps to achieve this goal. One way we ensure that our cobalt is ethically sourced is by incorporating robust child labor protection clauses into our business practices. This way, we can help prevent any form of abuse and exploitation of children in the mining of cobalt.

Mission

Huangpu Mining aims to develop its mineral resources in China in a systematic manner. We aspire to improve the track record of successful exploration by making new value-adding discoveries.

Vision

Huangpu Mining's goal is to establish itself as a new mining power in China, providing value and concrete advantages to its shareholders, partners, and the communities in which it operates.

Values

Huangpu Mining's values are at the heart of the company’s operations, defining how the company positions itself, how it operates, what are its standards, and what it believes in.

The company's values guide its actions and serve as the foundation for all decisions.

  • We have a strong desire to succeed in everything we do, and we tend to succeed in the most effective way possible.
  • Every step we take is communicated openly and clearly.

Why Invest in Cobalt

Cobalt is a solid, shiny metal with poor heat conductivity and a high energy density. Cobalt is utilized in the cathode of certain rechargeable lithium-ion battery electrodes to enhance stability and extend battery life.

Battery grade cobalt output, which was nearly 50,000 tpa for the past years, will have to climb more than 300% to 205,000 tpa to meet the cobalt demands of the whole battery industry if only 10% of the 2026 NCM cathode market adopts the 8-1-1 chemistry.

Commercial 8-1-1 NCM chemistry is expected to be used in 10 years or more, while cobalt-free batteries are still a laboratory study. Despite the efforts of certain researchers to develop an NMC battery with no cobalt, current estimations suggest that at least 10% cobalt must be utilized in battery cathode chemistry at all times for safety and battery longevity.

Cobalt is currently produced as a by-product of copper or nickel operations, accounting for over 90% of the world's supply. Our goal at Huangpu Mining is to become a major cobalt producer as well as the most attractive cobalt stock on the market.
