Clean TeQ and Relativity Space, Inc. to Develop Applications for Scandium Aluminium Alloys for 3D Printing of Rockets

Published

on

MELBOURNE, Australia, July 21, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sam Riggall, Chief Executive Officer of Clean TeQ Holdings Limited (Clean TeQ or Company) (ASX/TSX:CLQ; OTCQX:CTEQF), is pleased to announce a collaboration with Relativity Space, Inc. (Relativity) to develop scandium-aluminium alloys for 3D printing of launchers for commercial orbital launch services. The two companies have also agreed a binding Scandium Offtake Heads of Agreement for the Company to supply scandium oxide (volumes to be determined at Relativity’s election) from Clean TeQ’s Sunrise Project in NSW, Australia.
The collaboration is consistent with Clean TeQ’s long term strategy, led by Dr. Timothy Langan, manager of Clean TeQ’s scandium alloy development programs, to assist industry players to investigate and develop new applications for scandium-aluminium alloys. The Company’s aim is to stimulate growth in demand for the material which will be converted into sales of scandium from the Sunrise Project once it is in operation.Clean TeQ’s technical and marketing team will work closely with Relativity on development of scandium-containing alloys for Relativity’s patented Stargate 3D printing process. Results so far are encouraging and trials are progressing.Clean TeQ’s Sunrise Project in New South Wales, Australia, is being developed as one of the world’s largest integrated producers of nickel sulphate and cobalt sulphate – key cathode materials for the electric vehicle battery market. However, it also hosts one of the largest and highest-grade scandium deposits ever discovered, positioning Clean TeQ to be a major supplier of low-cost scandium for production of next-generation lightweight aluminium alloys for use in a variety of industries, including aerospace, automotive and consumer products.Headquartered in Los Angeles, California, Relativity Space, Inc. is a private American aerospace manufacturing company which is developing its Terran 1, the world’s first 3D printed space launch rocket, and Aeon engines for commercial orbital launch services.3D printing of the Terran 1 launch vehicle at Relativity’s Stargate factory:

Aerospace manufacturing has traditionally relied on large factories, fixed tooling, complex supply chains and extensive manual labour to build costly rockets comprised of 100,000+ parts, with lead-times of two years or more. Relativity has engineered and built the Stargate factory, the first aerospace platform to automate rocket manufacturing, vertically integrating intelligent robotics, software, and data-driven 3D printing technology.Incorporating the world’s largest metal 3D printers and artificial intelligence driven controls, the Stargate factory continuously optimizes production, resulting in greatly enhanced quality and time improvements, lower costs and part counts, and product designs previously not possible. Relativity has developed multiple proprietary alloys, custom designed for 3D printing to meet mission-critical performance.Clean TeQ’s Chief Executive Officer, Sam Riggall, commented, “We are delighted to be partnering with Relativity on this important project. Scandium allows us to create a new generation of aluminium alloys with unrivalled functionality – alloys that are stronger, lighter, more corrosion-resistant and printable. These alloys have the potential to revolutionise the manufacturing processes for a range of industries, as Relativity is already demonstrating. Our relationship with Relativity reinforces our strategy of working with innovative companies to find new solutions between raw materials and advanced manufacturing.”Encompassing four buildings with 20,000 square feet of office space and production facilities, Relativity’s LA facility houses design, engineering, and production of the Terran 1 launch vehicle and the Stargate printers:

Relativity’s CTO and Co-Founder, Jordan Noone, commented, “Relativity was founded on the principle that aerospace manufacturing can benefit significantly from emerging technology. Scandium alloys are a key part of being able to combine 3D printing with the structural needs of spaceflight. We are looking forward to working with Clean TeQ to continue our work in revolutionizing aerospace manufacturing.Further information about the Terran 1 launchers and the Stargate 3D printing technology is available from Relativity’s website: https://www.relativityspace.com/.Under the terms of the Scandium Offtake Heads of Agreement, Clean TeQ will supply scandium oxide to Relativity from the Company’s Sunrise Project once production commences. Annual volumes will be determined by Relativity. The parties have agreed a fixed price for scandium supplied pursuant to the Heads of Agreement. The Heads of Agreement is for a maximum ten-year term, and may be terminated by Relativity with notice, or by Clean TeQ if certain defined minimum purchase volumes are not met.For more information, please contact:Ben Stockdale, CFO and Investor Relations (Australia)             +61 3 9797 6700About Clean TeQ Holdings Limited (ASX/TSX: CLQ) – Based in Melbourne, Australia, Clean TeQ is a global leader in metals recovery and industrial water treatment through the application of its proprietary Clean-iX® continuous ion exchange technology.
