Tivan Ltd is an ASX listed critical minerals company based in Darwin. We are developing the Speewah resource, located 100km south of Wyndham in the East Kimberley. Speewah is a staged development project, hosting two world class critical minerals deposits - Fluorite & Vanadium. Tivan is committed to furthering the energy transition, including through the development of sovereign capabilities.

Tivan announced the Speewah Fluorite Project following the inclusion of Fluorine on the Critical Minerals List in December 2023. Building on a Scoping Study from 2018, and utilising a low impact mining operation, Tivan intends to build the supporting infrastructure to access the Speewah Valley, in close engagement with Traditional Owners. Tivan is pursuing offtake to benefit the emerging ‘battery-F’ EV value chain, with a target date for fluorite concentrate export in Q4 2026.

Expanding the development, Tivan intends to conduct mining, beneficiation and processing utilising the known ‘salt roast’ technology pathway to produce high purity vanadium oxide products: the “Speewah Vanadium Project”. Offtake targets Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) markets, including the Tivan Vanadium Electrolyte (TVE) plant to be built at the Middle Arm Sustainable Development Precinct (MASDP) in Darwin, in conjunction with downstream partners. Pre-feasibility studies have commenced and are set to conclude in Q3 2024.

Tivan, through engagement with CSIRO, is also developing the TIVAN+ critical minerals processing technology. Tivan+ is a novel mineral process for recovery of vanadium, titanium and iron products from VTM and ilmenite concentrates. The technology will be demonstrated at the Tivan+ Pilot Plant (TPP) to be constructed at East Arm, Darwin. Initial testwork by CSIRO is expected to be completed in Q2 2024, with Tivan commencing PFS level engineering on the Tivan+ process technology in Q3 2024.
