About the company

Australian Vanadium Ltd (ASX:AVL, OTCQB:ATVVF) is a resource company focused on vanadium, seeking to offer investors a unique exposure to all aspects of the vanadium value chain – from resource through to steel and energy storage opportunities.

The company is advancing the development of its world-class Australian Vanadium Project at Gabaninthaoject near Meekatharra, which is among the highest-grade vanadium projects in the world.

VSUN Energy is AVL’s 100% owned renewable energy and energy storage subsidiary which is focused on developing the Australian market for vanadium flow batteries for long duration energy storage.

How it is doing

25 Mar 2024

Pilot test work by Australian Vanadium Ltd (ASX:AVL, OTCQB:ATVVF) has delivered the goods, demonstrating the capability to produce greater than 99.9% ultra-high purity vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) at pilot scale, using the company’s own ore.

The results confirm a processing route that can easily be incorporated into the AVL flowsheet, employing well-known processing technology that can be readily scaled to meet market demand.

AVL’s ultra-high purity flowsheet includes a scalable ‘bolt-on’ option to produce ultra-high purity vanadium oxides, which demand a premium price.

Ultra-high purity vanadium pentoxide is critical in applications where even the smallest impurities can significantly affect performance, such as the chemical industry and specialty alloys for the aerospace industry, including defence.

25 Mar 2024

Australian Vanadium Ltd (ASX:AVL) (OTCMKTS:ATVVF) has been working hard despite COVID restrictions to develop technology and a mine plan that can go the distance.

Managing director Vincent Algar said that the company had been able to make several significant breakthroughs with pilot plant work in the US around Grate Kiln technology which had demonstrated energy efficiency and adaptability for vanadium roasting.

19 Mar 2024

Key energy storage market player Australian Vanadium Ltd (ASX:AVL, OTCQB:ATVVF) has kicked off operations at its new vanadium electrolyte manufacturing facility in Western Australia, signalling its intention to be a leading provider of critical materials for the energy transition era.

The facility recently produced its first batch of battery-ready high-purity vanadium electrolyte, meeting the stringent specifications required for vanadium flow batteries (VFBs), known for their long life cycle and high energy storage capacity and essential for large-scale energy storage systems.

Insight: Technology Metals on track with Yarrabubba Iron-Vanadium Project DFS in...

01 Jul 2021

Technology Metals Australia Ltd (ASX:TMT) (FRA:TN6) has 'project defining' pilot-scale test-work underway at the Yarrabubba Iron-Vanadium Project in Western Australia in support of a definitive feasibility study (DFS).  

Recent metallurgical test work results, which have been described by the company as ‘excellent’, confirmed the opportunity to generate a high-grade iron ore-vanadium (>63% Fe, >1.6% V2O5) product.

What management says

05 Feb 2024

Australian Vanadium Ltd (ASX:AVL, OTCQB:ATVVF) CEO Graham Arvidson tells Proactive the company has successfully completed its merger with Technology Metals Australia, having now acquired all shares in TMT. The transaction also merges two adjoining vanadium projects across one orebody, offering greater technical expertise and more cost-effective exploration and development. AVL intends to become a world leader in the vanadium supply chain, targeting critical and battery metals within integrated projects with the goal of servicing the vanadium redox flow battery industry, which subsidiary VSUN already operates within. Now the company has engaged the Wood Group to produce an optimised feasibility study, which will bring together the best aspects of both projects.
