Molybdenum is a essential metallic used primarily in metal and chemical substances that’s wanted in all applied sciences within the upcoming inexperienced power transition. When added to metal and forged iron, it enhances power, hardenability, weldability, toughness, temperature power, and corrosion resistance. Primarily based on information from the Worldwide Molybdenum Affiliation and the European Fee Metal Report, the world produced round 576 million kilos of molybdenum in 2021 the place the European Union (“EU”) because the second largest metal producer on this planet used roughly 24% of worldwide molybdenum provide and has no home molybdenum manufacturing. To a higher diploma, the EU metal dependent industries just like the automotive, building, and engineering, characterize round 18% of the EU’s ≈ US$16 trillion GDP. Greenland Sources strategically situated Malmbjerg molybdenum venture has the potential to produce in and for the EU roughly 25% of the EU consumption, of environmentally pleasant high-quality molybdenum from a accountable EU Affiliate nation, for many years to return. The top quality of the Malmbjerg ore, having low impurity content material in phosphorus, tin, antimony, and arsenic, makes it a perfect supply of molybdenum for the high-performance metal trade lead worldwide by Europe, particularly the Scandinavian nations and Germany.
