Welcome to the Electra third quarter 2023 results conference call. As a reminder, you all participants are in listen-only mode, and the conference is being recorded. After the presentation, there'll be an opportunity to ask questions. To join the question queue, you may press Star, then one on your telephone keypad. Should you need assistance during the conference call, you may signal an operator by pressing Star, then zero. I would now like to turn the conference over to Joe Racanelli, Vice President, Investor Relations with Electra Battery Materials Corporation. Please go ahead. Thank you, Jalene. Good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us today for our Q3 call. We do have quite a bit of material to go through. Before I turn it over to Trent, I want to point out a couple of things. All of our disclosure material related to our Q3 results, including the MD&A, financial statements, and the press release, were issued last night. They've been filed on SEDAR+, and they're also available on our website. We will be making use of a presentation today. That presentation is on our website, and I encourage you to follow along. I do want to make note that we will be making some forward-looking statements within the meaning of Safe Harbor. And as well, want to point out that we will have a Q&A session today that will be open to the analyst who follow us. For any shareholders that would have additional questions, please reach out to me at any time. And so with that, I do want to point out that in addition to Trent Mell, our CEO, we do have Peter Park, our CFO, on the line with us, as well as Mark Trevisiol, who's our VP of Project Development. So with that, let me turn it over to Trent for his opening remarks. Thank you, Joe. Good morning, everybody. So, yeah, I'll start. Peter will say a few words, then Mark. I will wrap up before we open the call up to questions from our analysts. Over the past quarter, since completing the rebaseline engineering report on our cobalt refinery, we've been particularly focused on our capital, our balance sheet, strengthening the balance sheet in two ways. One, despite some pretty tough markets and uncertainty that hopefully has peaked, at least in regards to inflation, we did get pretty strong support, raising CAD 21.5 million in the month of August to support our efforts and our use of proceeds. In addition to that, over the quarter, we've. I think we've received some real encouragement from sources for non-dilutive financing that could get us to $60 million amount that we're gonna need to complete our refinery. So, some great progress there. Can't say much about the latter part, but we can come back to it if we like. On the other developments listed here, we're gonna go through these, so I won't dwell on it too much. But slide four here talks about the black mass trial that Mark will go into some detail about, Three Fires and formalizing or advancing our joint venture. I'll come back to that at the end. And then this partnership, commercial relationship with LG, our cornerstone partner, that I would say a really, really great partner for us as well. So, before we elaborate on all that, though, why don't we go to Peter, and he will review our liquidity and talk about Q3 highlights. Thank you, Trent. Good morning, everyone. I would like to begin my remarks with a review of our l iquidity position found on slide six. At the end of Q3, we held CAD 15.7 million in cash and marketable securities. This was up from CAD 7.4 million held at the end of Q2. The increase was driven by our equity financing that generated gross proceeds of CAD 21.5 million, but offset by capital costs related to the construction of the refinery project and costs related to running of our black mass trial. I should point out that our cash balance at the end of Q3 did not include the remaining CAD 5.1 million of government investments expected to be received. Cash management remains a key priority, and we have undertaken a number of steps to reduce the costs and manage expenses since the start of the year. Among these include a reduction of the owner's team to 12 individuals from 30 we had at the end of 2022, reducing G&A costs at the head office, and limiting the use of consultants and advisors. There are a couple of other financial highlights of Q3 that I would like to bring to everyone's attention, as noted on slide 7. Our net loss for the period was CAD 9.2 million, of which CAD 4.4 million was due to fair value adjustments relating to our convertible notes. The adjustments are financial in nature and non-cash. I also want to point out that our financial statements for Q3 included a reclassification of our convertible notes from long-term to current liabilities due to the timing of waiver received from our lenders relating to a registration statement allowing for the resale of the underlying securities not yet being completed. The waiver has been received subsequent to quarter end, and as a result, the liabilities associated with the convertible notes are now classified as long-term. The delay in the receipt of the waiver unfortunately had a bearing on our reporting timeline. That concludes my remarks. I will now turn the call over to Mark for an update on our refinery project. Thanks, Peter. Let's skip up to slide 9. Although our efforts at the refinery in Q3 were primarily spent on conducting our black mass trials, some gains were made on our cobalt sulfate project as well. Just recapping what our site looked like about two years ago. Slide 9 shows our site back in June of 2021. The subsequent slide, slide 10, if we go to that, shows some of the construction that has happened, and the time period is this fall of 2023. You can see there's an extensive amount of work that has been completed. You know, a lot of work around solvent extraction and crystallization. So the most noteworthy of this is the white building, which is the solvent extraction plant up in the right-hand corner. Once fully commissioned, this building will be where we will be separating the majority of the impurities from our feed and making better than a 99.99% pure battery-grade cobalt sulfate solution. And that solution would then get crystallized as what we would call a final heptahydrate cobalt sulfate powder. You can see from the slide, all of the shell of that big white building is completed, so things like, such as the footings, the foundations, the roofing. Not so visible is the inside of the building, obviously, but there's over 33 solvent extraction cells that have been placed within the building and as well as some accompanying holding vessels. Also noteworthy is the completed work on the crystallizer circuit, and I will be talking about that in the next slide. Slide 11 shows a nice view of the crystallizer. This circuit will be essentially taking the solvent from the cobalt solvent extraction circuit, so the cobalt sulfate. It's basically getting vaporized in the falling film evaporator and then being crystallized within the crystallizer. I should point out that the crystallizer circuit contains the falling film evaporator, and that was the vessel that we put out an announcement on a number of months back that was damaged during shipping. You can see the top of that vessel on the left-hand side. It's just protruding through the roof. And then right in front is the main crystallizer vessel, which stretches about 50 feet long and about 8 feet in diameter. Some recent activities are around the cobalt sulfate project. We've received a number of longer lead items. This includes, again, most of it is around the solvent extraction plant. A lot of these vessels were, were manufactured overseas. There was a number of delays in getting them here, not only getting them here, but getting them fabricated. We finally got the final shipment back in September, so we're happy that all, all of that equipment is here. But there's still some equipment that we're waiting on the electrical side that has to come to site, and, and that should be at the site within the next six weeks or so. Again, I mean, finishing the installation of the equipment delivered at site will occur as we secure capital funding for the project. Some of these numbers you've seen before. The updated project costs are in the range of $113 million-$122 million. The current estimate to complete is around $55 million-$62 million. So we've done the rebaseline engineering. The report was done by an EPCM contractor. The estimate in that report, the cost estimate, was reviewed by a third-party estimator. You know, a number of areas driving costs. You know, we see inflation, you know, at our grocery store of 5, 7, 8%. On the industrial side, when you're talking steel, when you're talking, you know, stainless steel, some concrete, piping, valving, we've seen as much as 50% increases in costs. I mean, that was something that was just not projected and many... Most of it linked, a lot of it linked to the COVID-19 pandemic. But we'd like to add that, you know, the updated project economics has significantly de-risked the refinery project. So our next steps, again, work on project funding and try to make it as non-dilutive as we can. Continue to receive some items at site. As I mentioned, some electrical components are still yet to come to site, and we'll continue with the black mass recycling trial. And just on black mass, a quick update. Slide 16. We extended the recycling trial through to Q4. The goals are to test the hydromet process, which we developed in-house and target the recovery of high-value metals, such as nickel, cobalt, lithium. Those are the higher-value metals. We're also recovering manganese and graphite. Critical success factors for the trial. Number one, it's got to be safe, and it's got to be environmentally compliant with all the rules that we operate under within Ontario. We're aiming to maximize our recovery rates. I'm gonna touch on that shortly. We've made some great gains there. And determine the throughput rate that we need for economic viability. So some on slide 17, some of the results that we've had in the trial. Recovery rates for some individual processing steps are at or superior to the results that we've achieved in the lab setting. We've especially seen this on our manganese recoveries within the last number of months, and we've also seen this in terms of the product grade and recovery rates for nickel and for cobalt. So the MHP product that we're making, the grade of the product is exceeding what we got in the lab. We are now touching on nearly 50% nickel plus cobalt in our MHP product, and a number of the impurities have significantly dropped. And impurities that would maybe not be an issue to us, but more for a downstream refiner such as fluoride, manganese, copper. We've seen significant orders- of- magnitude drops in that. We've been able to do that by running the batches in the plant and tweaking reagent addition, tweaking retention times, temperature, you know, a few tools at our disposal that we've managed to work with to get these improvements. But we've treated about 40 tons of black mass, and we shipped about 20 tons of nickel, cobalt, MHP, to date. We are recovering lithium carbonate. It's a significant element used in making batteries, and we continue to work to refine that to a higher grade product. As I mentioned, we've made significant improvements on manganese recoveries and fluoride reductions. Our next steps, we'll continue to work our way at optimizing the hydromet process, improving product purity levels and recoveries, and reducing moisture levels. Optimization involves working with what we call a METSIM model, which is a metallurgical model that looks at the mass balance and the heat balance and allows us to move around our process flow diagrams accordingly to try to maximize how the process works. And we're gonna study the cost to make an LME-grade cobalt and an industrial-grade lithium carbonate. We can see that the added value that is generated by having greater payable is significant in this business, so we'd like to explore that a little bit more. We're working on a final summary report on what we did at site and, you know, the work that has been done and all the data that's been gathered. Look at a path to commercialization and look how that fits into the work that we're doing with Three Fires and trying to make an integrated recycling business plan. I'll now turn the call back over to Trent for some closing remarks. All right. Thanks for that, Mark. Before I go to page 20, I do wanna pause and congratulate Mark and the team, so George, Hayden, the folks at site, and the commercial support from Michael and Andre. You know, what we're doing there at site on the recycling, with the benefit of a permitted facility with a world-class lab, a team, and you know, the existing refinery that's being recommissioned, you know, we're in a class of one here in North America. A lot of people are talking about it. This team is doing it, and I'm really proud of what we've accomplished. Plant scale, no less, and I think our approach is being rewarded. We're making a quality MHP, and it keeps getting better. The same thing with the lithium carbonate. We've learned a lot. We'll make some capital investments to make that even better. The reason we're still doing this 11 months later is because we keep learning and benefiting from the, you know, the growing experience of the team there. So hats off. Now on slide 20, let's turn to a couple of the strategic initiatives that we're working on. There are a bunch, two of note. One, of course, is LG. So if we look back to September of 2022, that's when we initially had the signing ceremony for a binding term sheet that basically provided for 60% of our production going to LG over a 3-year period. And even in the face of some delays with the inflation that, frankly, the entire industry has faced, LG was keen to work with us and to extend the contract because the need for cobalt is not today, it's really 25 onward, right, as the supply chain really picks up and these battery plants are installed. Let's not forget LG, second- largest battery maker in the world and the largest outside of China. They are building one plant in Europe, but they're building six battery plants with partners here in North America. So this is an important market for them. Five-year contract from three, nineteen thousand tons of cobalt over that period, so that's gonna be up to 80% of our production and more than a 2.5- times increase in the total volume under contract from our initial announcement the year prior. And they've been really, really good partners. I can't say enough about the relationship we've got there and the support they've shown us. The other part, I guess, the other hallmark of that agreement, and I hammer this home a lot with investors, whether it be recycling, whether it be cobalt refining and one day nickel refining, you know, our objective is to try to insulate the company and our shareholders from the wild swings that commodity markets are known for. So, you know, it's not quite a toll-type structure, but the idea of the arrangement that we entered into there and others that we're looking at is to have steady earnings that provide us with a good rate of return and a floor without the, again, without the downside pressure certainly of the commodities market. And this contract, you know, I think we've said it before in the past, it's a big contract, $620 million worth of cobalt to the battery maker under this contract. So that's on LG. We can come back to that if there are questions. And now I wanna go to 21 and talk about Three Fires. Three Fires is an economic development agency for First Nations groups in Southern Ontario. Great track record in consultation in advising other First Nations. They've got their hands on a lot of businesses, and they work with some pretty impressive partners, and we're delighted to be a part of them. Relationship early on, we were looking at a strategic investment for various reasons, we paused that. We did our financing. We're able to complete the financing without that investment, and we kind of doubled down really on the commercial side and the formation through an MOU initially of a primary recycling business, so otherwise known as a shredding business. Within their traditional territory, there are a couple of battery plants coming, and so the idea for us is to extend our supply chain and be able to participate not just in the refining, but embark with them into a shredding business as well. So the work over the last quarter has really been around funding. They've taken that upon themselves to find the funding for the JV. Electra's team, commercial and technical, have been working on the business plan, so review of equipment suppliers around the world. And also really benefiting from the feedback of global battery makers that have had a number of years of black mass shredding experience with third parties and understanding what they like, what works, what doesn't work, how we can do things better, and then a lot of discussions with stakeholders. And so, stay tuned. We have more to do on that. We have regular meetings with this group, and I think there's a lot we can do together. If you turn over on page 21, actually, you'll see the map of the, I guess, the closed loop that we're really trying to create here. We've got, again, plant scale refinery that we'd like to commercialize. If we can build a shredding facility south of Toronto, capture battery scrap, then send that black mass north of Toronto to refine it and separate the metals into their constituent elements, you know, you've got a nice proximate closed loop with a very small carbon footprint by way of transport. And importantly, we distinguish ourselves in terms of how we're approaching commercial discussions, we're... in that we're not trying to buy the black mass. You know, long-term battery makers have no intention to sell their scrap off their manufacturing floor, only to buy it back maybe the next day. And so this, again, much like the LG relationship on cobalt, is a relationship, and it's a margin-based relationship. For us, we get the benefit, not just of exposure on the shredding, but of a steady supply of material up to our refinery. And it allows us, again, to expand our business model, and, you know, we're not gonna limit ourselves to that market either. So I said the business model integration. The other, I guess, the other piece I should mention on the refining side is when it does come into our, to our refinery, to be able to integrate a black mass plant with a cobalt plant has other advantages. Mark showed you an image and talked about the MHP we're producing. As we commission the cobalt plant, that MHP, we can stream out the cobalt and make the battery-grade sulfate. And so it's a step approach. We think it's a cautious one, and a logical one by way of de-risking the process and gradually moving towards battery-grade product production through recycling, as opposed to just commercial products, which is fine and generates money. But closing the loop completely and returning it back to the supply chain is something that will come. It's just the market is not... The market's not ready for it yet, given the infrastructure in North America. All right, maybe I'll go to 23 here and talk about some of our near-term milestones. We have said on a previous call, or maybe two, that we anticipated 2023 was going to be challenging. And with hindsight, I'm pleased that we moved, I guess, relatively early compared to maybe other players in the commodity space, to kind of pull on our horns and try to mitigate the pressures that we saw. And I think that's paying a price. It's not what we wanted to do, but it was the right thing. And thanks to Mark and the team and the work we've been doing over the last couple of years on black mass, we didn't have to sit idle. We were able to use what we have, the team, the process, the equipment, and accelerate our black mass strategy. And so those of you who follow the story know that ours is a multi-pronged story of taking a permitted met site and doing cobalt and then recycling and nickel and perhaps manganese and having everything in one location. So, you know, with this pause on the construction, we were able to move phases one and two together simultaneously, and that's gonna yield some benefits as the market starts to recover. So on this page, you can see a number of milestones, keep receiving the long-lead equipment items that Mark outlined. We will have more information for the market on the black mass trial and share with you some of the learnings and how we distinguish ourselves. Government funding, we've got some short-term sources we think we can yield, and as I alluded to very early on in the call, we have a bigger solution for the cobalt facility that we are spending a lot of our time on. Outside of that met site, we've got Iron Creek, a little bit of field work. We'll have some news for that, and we're also permitting a 10-year plan, so that when we do start drilling around the U.S. Forest Service properties around our Iron Creek asset, we can move with a little bit more expediency. And then lastly, the Bécancour study. Again, that's our second refinery. Great opportunity to work with Quebec and Canada on a battery materials park that already has GM, Ford, and BASF as potential downstream clients. And so we will move forward with that in due course to do a study and see how we might integrate our operations there as well. So we'll open it up to questions now, if anybody has any. Jalene? Thank you. We'll now begin the question and answer session. To join the question queue, you may press Star, then one on your telephone keypad. You'll hear a tone acknowledging your request. If you're using a speakerphone, please pick up your handset before pressing any keys. To withdraw your question, please press Star then Two. Our first question is from Matthew O'Keefe with Cantor Fitzgerald. Please go ahead. Thanks, operator. Good morning, everyone. Thanks for the update. Thanks for taking my question. Just, I guess my main focus here is really around liquidity. I mean, yes, you did have that financing, which has certainly helped, but your working capital position is still kind of low given your burn. So a couple of questions on that. So one, you still have long lead items coming in, and the question around that is, are those all prepaid, or are there still costs associated with these pre-ordered items, these long lead items? And two, with additional sources of financing, you have, you have LG, not LG, sorry, you have the government, and you've got, Three Fires Group that are sort of promising some money, but we've been hearing about that for a while. So what, what's the hold up on, A, getting the provincial government's, funding and, B, the, the deal that we've struck? I mean, from what I can see, you satisfied your side of the deal, so where's Three Fires with their, with their portion of, of equity financing? Yeah, with Three Fires, I think we jointly agreed to put that aside for now. I mean, I think really what happened, Matt, and you'll recall, right, we were gonna do a 10 and 10 financing back in July, August. With the advent of the announcement of the LG contract extension, our book filled up rather quickly, and just Three Fires wasn't in a position to move. And so, that really is in their court. So I probably, I mean, they, you know, I guess their feedback is they, they'd like to explore that, but right now, really, the focus is on getting the commercial pieces together. The real advantage I see in the shorter term with Three Fires is getting that upstream investment. If they are taking responsibility for sourcing the capital and we're doing the technical, it's, you know, a great value add for our shareholder base. On the government piece, yeah, and we've talked about this in the past. We've got a number of commitments that are out there from two levels of government. I think we're close. I think I can look to five of it now and say, I think we're looking, and I can't say days or weeks, it's kind of out of our control right now, but I'd say CAD 5 million is proximate. We've got another potential CAD 10 million behind that. That's gonna require a little bit more back and forth on terms of release. And then for the cobalt facility proper, you know, that's a $60 million nut that we're trying to figure out. And we're feeling. I'm feeling, honestly, I'm feeling better about that than I have in about a year. I think we've identified, you know, the tools to fund a project like ours are finally catching up to us. We've been at this for three years, and now we're seeing the pockets of money open up, and I look to various government programs as well as, when you start stacking up the sources that include, you know, lead orders from government agencies, the commercial add-ons, the pile-on effect, really, really does start to pick up momentum. So we're looking at, I would say, a couple of government programs. We're looking at commercial partners, we're looking at trading houses, and, you know, it's not something we'll see that by the end of this year, but I'm quite optimistic that things will get more interesting for us as we move towards the summer. Okay, so, Just to add on to that, Matt. Sorry, Matt, just to add on to that, I mean, one key thing to take into consideration from a timing perspective on the funding, you know, had to do with the completion of the rebaseline report that helped de-risk the costs associated with the project. And I think factoring in that development is also impacted some of the timing of the release of the funding that's been committed to us. So, you know, that review process, the ongoing progress that we've been making, are factors that have caused some of the timing issues that we've experienced on the funding. So with that de-risk behind us, as Trent just pointed out, we're hopeful that it'll be, you know, coming a little sooner than later. And I didn't answer the first part of your question, Matt. I apologize on the equipment deliveries. This, we're now at the receipt stage, so no new liabilities are being incurred. The items here are all reflected in our financials as commitments, and so it is really a question of delivery. Peter and the team have been focused on just, you know, cash conservation, and so we've had G&A reductions. That continues to be a focus into next year. Okay. All right, then. And otherwise, okay, that, that's it for me. Thanks. Thank you, Matt. Once again, if you have a question, please press Star, then one. Our next question is from David Talbot with Red Cloud Securities. Please go ahead. Good morning, Trent. Thanks for the call. You guys are continuing this black mass trial through Q4, you know, tweaking the process and the flow sheet. When should we expect that black mass report? And then assuming it's positive, how quickly might that lead into a planned 2,500 ton per year ramp up, you know, and assuming that's right sized for viability? ... Yeah. The report, we're working on it right as we speak. I'd like to say we're gonna get that by the end of the year, but I think we have some immediate priorities around funding that has taken up the technical team's time. Some of these funding streams are all-consuming in terms of the documentation that you need to submit. So I might, Mark, correct me if I'm wrong, maybe end of January. Does that sound like a reasonable period of time for a black mass summary report? Yeah, I think that's reasonable. And that's exactly what Trent is saying. You know, some of our engineers that would be working on the report are tied up on some of these other government funding initiatives. Yeah, and again, you know, parts of the report are gonna be redacted because they're, you know, there's IP associated with our process here. But I mean, the gains that we've made, I think they've surpassed, or they certainly surpassed my expectations, you know, in terms of the quality of the product and the recovery rates that we're seeing. We've clearly identified, you know, the areas that we can optimize even more, but will require more capital to do so in a 2,500-ton per annum plant. And I'd say the, yeah, the, I mean, look, the desktop study still stands, right? I mean, we've, we've got a number of assumptions in there that we'll need to validate. So I think with, with this report that Mark's team is working on, you know, the, the immediate next step will be to do a METSIM model and to do equipment sizing. And then once we've done that and validated, assumptions that we had made in our, in our, desktop study, it's at that point that we'll be able to get into some detailed engineering and, and look at, lead time for, for, for long lead equipment, you know, tanks and vessels and whatever we may be, we may be lacking. And then, in light of what we're seeing in the market today, I think we're not gonna start construction or do any equipment orders until we've got the capital in hand. We know this. We've all been in the industry for a lot of years, but when we decided to pause construction in March, I mean, it's tough to stop a procurement machine when you've got stuff being ordered and fabricated from around the world. And so it's like slowing down the Titanic. Well, in our case, maybe it's not a Titanic because we're not that big a project. But I think we'll be very careful before we press start. I don't think the timeline need be that long, but we won't, we don't wanna get ahead of ourselves. Yeah. Would that CapEx be included in the CAD 62 million of the cobalt sulfate plant, or is that a little bit of an additional CapEx on that, on top? Yeah, different. Yeah, David, good, good, good point. We're treating them as two discrete projects, so that the $60 million is what gets the cobalt plant into production. And then, with the black mass, the desktop study was a separate capital amount. Okay. Do you have an idea of what that capital is? Well, the desktop was about CAD 8 million, so I guess $6 million. I'm sorry. And so that's what we're, we wanna validate with with the next level of study. I don't know if we'll go right to a Feas. Maybe it's a Pre-Feas. I think we can go to Feas. But I think the, the network, the METSIM modeling, and then the feasibility will, will thrash that around a bit. Okay. Thank you for that. And the 20 tons of MHP you sold, can you say anything about sales price on that? You know, I, I'm assuming you're not booking revenue, but applying that to capital. And then, I guess, more importantly, any feedback on the quality of the material that you're delivering? You want to say something on that, Peter? Yeah, the sales price was, it was about $82,000... Sorry, $82,000, and, that's been recorded as part of the other income number. And then the feedback from customers. Mark, maybe you can address that. What kind of feedback on the feedback from customers? Well, we're, you know, the contract that we have with our customer, we've actually exceeded the metal content, and we're far below the impurity levels. And as I mentioned, we're continuing to work on both, and we've been successful in even advancing both. So, it's well within the specification required. So that's been fairly positive. And I'd add to that, one of the, you know, one of the comments that Michael, our VP Commercial, received in marketing the product is, you know, this is, MHP, on the one hand, it's great, right? Because it's a marketable product that can be sold in various channels, and it's not like a battery-grade product that you need to qualify. However, to make an MHP from a black mass, you don't see that in North America. I guess it's the first-mover thing. And so part of that was just, you know, whereas most MHP is coming out of a primary production, like in Indonesia, ours is a little different. And so, you know, one of the early conversations we had to have with potential buyers is just, you know, deleterious elements and threshold levels and, you know, things you have in the battery that you wouldn't see in a mine. And that's been a, I think, very positive. And as we've moved forward with our process and done some of the work and tweaks that Mark has talked about, you know, I think we've opened up a few more channels of buyers for MHP when we do expand that footprint. Okay. Thank you, guys. Thank you, David. Once again, if you wish to ask a question, please press Star then One. This concludes the question and answer session. I'd like to turn the conference back over to Joe Racanelli for any closing remarks. I just wanna before we go to Joe, I just wanna thank everybody for tuning in. You know, these have been tough markets in 2023, but I like our prospects for 2024. I think and hope we hit peak inflation, but I guess more importantly, we took some early steps to insulate ourselves from a lot of that, and I think we're looking pretty good with most of the long-lead equipment now at site. Just by way of reminder, if you look at what we have, that picture Mark showed of the aerial of the site, I mean, that's a replacement value of $200 million, with $60 million to go. And so from a cost perspective, you know, it looks like a small amount. It's not like building a mine where you're gonna be 10 years and $1 billion and questions around permits. This is a site that is permitted, it's operating, it's got low capital intensity. We've got the commercial contracts, we've got the feed in, we've got the contracts out. LG is buying 80%, and I will tell you, there is a bit of a battle for that remaining 20%. It's effectively sold on paper. We're holding out for, for, for good reason, so, so stay tuned on that. Black mass. Look, nobody's doing what we're doing on black mass. Nobody is doing what we're doing on cobalt refining. We are a first. We've been identified as a critical part of the North American battery supply chain infrastructure, and that, I think, is gonna underpin some of the developments into 2024. I'm really looking forward to it. Thank you to our shareholders for hanging in there, and I'll turn it over to Joe. Thank you, everyone, for joining us today, and if you do have any follow-up questions, please, feel free to reach out. We will continue on providing updates on our progress, and we'll be disclosing announcements as they unfold. Our next slated call that we provide an update, will probably be towards the end of February, early March, as we report our year-end results. And, you know, until we speak, good luck to everyone, and for those in the US, Happy Thanksgiving, and a little later from then, season's greetings and tidings. This concludes today's conference call. You may disconnect your lines. Thank you for participating, and have a pleasant day.
