Question · H1 2026
Reg Spencer from Canaccord Genuity asked about the implications of Rio Tinto's investment in Bécancour for Elevra Lithium's medium to long-term offtake and product marketing strategy, and if there had been any discussions with Rio Tinto. He also sought an update on the status of the Whabouchi project.
Answer
Christian Cortes (CFO) noted that Rio Tinto's Bécancour facility is estimated for 2028 production, limiting short-term opportunities, but acknowledged potential for future feedstock supply. He added that Elevra had no insight into the status of Whabouchi or Galaxy assets, expecting Rio Tinto to provide updates later in the year.
