About Sovereign Metals Limited
Sovereign Metals Limited is focused on becoming a market leader in supplying two critical minerals to global markets: titanium, in the form of rutile, and graphite. Rutile is the purest, highest-grade natural form of titanium dioxide (TiO2) and is the preferred feedstock in manufacturing titanium pigment and producing titanium metals.Titanium is essential for various industries, including aerospace, defense, pigments, medical and consumer technologies. Graphite is vital for the energy transition as the largest component of a lithium-ion battery. Currently, China dominates the supply of both critical minerals. Sovereign’s 100% owned Tier-One Kasiya Rutile-Graphite Project, located in the southeast African country of Malawi, is both the world’s largest known rutile deposit and second-largest flake graphite deposit. Through numerous technical studies, Sovereign has already confirmed that the Kasiya project could be the world’s largest and lowest-cost producer of rutile and graphite and is currently undertaking an optimisation study. Sovereign’s strategic investor and one of the world’s largest and most accomplished global mining companies, Rio Tinto continues to provide assistance and advice on technical and marketing aspects of Kasiya. With sustainability a core pillar of Sovereign’s strategy, Kasiya would have the lowest greenhouse gas emissions of any high-grade titanium feedstock or graphite producer.
