The added value of Alliance Magnesium
Alliance Magnesium has developed the cleanest technology on the market for manufacturing magnesium metal ingots from serpentine mine tailings that was accumulated over decades.
The company also recycles magnesium scrap from the metal processing industry to make high added value magnesium, thereby achieving full circularity. Located in Quebec, the company benefits from hydroelectricity for its energy needs. Using this green energy to produce the world’s most responsible magnesium is an undeniable asset.
Using quality to fight climate change
This process is a radical change in the world of magnesium production and in the fight against climate change.
The use of magnesium is largely favoured over that of steel and aluminum. Magnesium is respectively 70% and 33% lighter than these metals. As such, it contributes directly to reducing greenhouse gases emitted by gasoline-powered vehicles. Adding this use of a Quebec based magnesium produced by Alliance Magnesium will reduce even more the ecological footprint.
Plant under construction
Remembering that the current building phase —a commercial demonstration plant—represents an investment of $145 million and allow to creation of more than 100 jobs in the Eastern Townships. Almost 100 site workers are active throughout the construction. The casting centre will become operational first, ready to recycle magnesium in early 2021. Construction will then continue for another year in order to complete the plant facilities.
