Sinova Global produces semiconductor-grade silicon metal with a minimum purity of 99.6% using quartz reserves in British Columbia. Its vertically integrated manufacturing process—from high-purity quartz quarrying to metal refinement—supplies silicon tailored for enhancing anode materials in lithium-ion batteries, delivering higher energy density and performance for electric vehicles and energy storage systems.
High-purity silicon metal grades (minimum 99.6% purity) for solar panels, semiconductors, EV components, and energy storage systems; tailored silicon anode materials to improve battery energy density and charging performance with minimal processing requirements.
Construction of a silicon metal plant near Tiptonville, Tennessee began in October 2022, expected operational in 2024 with annual capacity to meet EV and renewable energy demand; expansion of the Sinova Quartz quarry in British Columbia to over one million metric tons annual permitted capacity.
Vision Blue Resources committed up to $125M in December 2021 (initial $50M) for the Tennessee plant, acquiring a significant minority stake and governance rights; Sir Mick Davis serves as Chairman.
