The DRC is home to around 60% of the second-largest rainforest on the planet, as well as much of the world''s largest tropical peatland, the Cuvette Centrale.. While the country''s land and forests are still a carbon sink overall, human-caused land use changes release large volumes of carbon dioxide (CO2) and make the DRC the world''s 12th biggest greenhouse gas emitter, as of 2018.
The proven and probable reserves of the Manono project are estimated at 93 million tonnes (Mt) grading 1.58% Lithium oxide (Li 2 O) and 988g/t of Tin (Sn), as of April 2020.. Mining methods.

“As substantiated by the BloombergNEF report, the prospect of the expanding the value chain of development of lithium-ion batteries and electric vehicles value chains to DRC and Africa is both financially and environmentally appealing,” commented Dr. Sidi Ould Tah, Director General of the Arab Bank for Economic Development in Africa (BADEA).
London and Kinshasa, November 24, 2021 – The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) can leverage its abundant cobalt resources and hydroelectric power to become a low-cost and low-emissions producer of lithium-ion battery cathode precursor materials.
According to Focus, there are around 300 organisations currently working on graphene battery technology. Of the top ten companies best positioned to disrupt the battery market with graphene, Focus ranks Global Graphene Group as the leader.
Focus’s forecasting method estimates the improvement speed of graphene production at 36.5% YoY. So, assuming the current price of $200/kg and a target price of $11/kg, Focus forecasts graphene production will become cheap enough for the material to force its way into battery chemistries by around 2031.

Graphene looks set to disrupt the electric vehicle (EV) battery market by the mid-2030s, according to a new artificial intelligence (AI) analysis platform that predicts technological breakthroughs based on global patent data.
It is difficult to predict how cheap production needs to be before manufacturers start to use it in their batteries, but Focus believes this will happen when graphene becomes comparable with lithium. Lithium carbonate currently costs around $16/kg to produce and analysts believe it could fall a further 30% to $11/kg in 2024.
