Sibanye: There is more to come in our green metals
· Green metals are expected to deliver value for the company and increase revenue diversification outside of SA. Following a flurry of deals in green metals in the past few months, Sibanye Stillwater CEO Neal Froneman says the company's recent manoeuvers are not impulse decisions and there is still space for more deals in the pipeline.
The Right and Wrong Ways of Lithium Battery Testing
A GreenLiFE battery offers the highest standards in energy and efficiency, and the life expectancy on these batteries is 10 years or more. These batteries can be used for 3,000-5,000 life cycles, compared to the 300-500 life cycle of lead acid batteries. And you can use GreenLiFE batteries for all common uses, including boating, RVs, solar
