Talga Group (ASX:TLG) has signed a nonbinding letter of intent (LOI) with German lithium-ion battery manufacturer EAS Batteries to develop a long-term supply arrangement for Talnode graphite anode material from its Vittangi anode project in Sweden, according to a Wednesday filing with the Australian bourse.
The companies plan to finalize product specifications, quality, supply-chain, human rights and environmental requirements, including compliance with foreign entity of concern-free standards, and aim to sign a binding five-year supply agreement by July 2027, with pricing and volumes yet to be agreed, per the filing.
The LOI is nonbinding, except for its confidentiality and governing-law provisions, and does not guarantee that a final agreement will be reached, the filing added.
