On 11 December 2024 we spoke with Michael Walshe, CEO of Metallium (ASX:MTM), about how MTM fills a very urgent need for many countries, including the US, to secure the supply of critical metals, like gallium, germanium and indium, now that market leader China is restricting exports of these metals. MTM has the technology to efficiently and quickly extract such metals from things like ultra high value electronic waste that, up till now, usually gets landfilled. The company recently signed a collaboration deal with US-based Indium Corp to help the US to limit its reliability on foreign sources of critical metals. Based on this deal and many others that are likely to follow, we believe the company has a very bright future!
