Our Projects

Where Resources Become Strategic Projects
Powering Sustainable Growth

At NAMC, our projects reflect our commitment to turning mining potential into real development opportunities. Through selected projects in metallic and non-metallic minerals, backed by sound investments and strategic partnerships, we maximize value and support economic growth locally and internationally.

Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) Plant

A planned USD 200 million plant with 15,000-ton capacity, developing LFP solutions for one of the fastest-growing segments of the energy-storage industry and anchoring NAMC's role across the battery value chain.

15,000 MT Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) Plant with an investment of US$ 200 million.

NAMC is committed to being part of the energy storage value chain. LFP is a major component of Energy storage batteries that has the potential to transform nearly every aspect of society, from transportation to communications to electricity delivery.

LFP is one of the fastest growing sectors of the battery industry, It is a necessary step in terms of transitioning to a low carbon economy and climate adaptation.

By 2030, Cairn ERA forecasts global demand for the Li-ion battery market will reach more than 2,725 GWh, for a market value of more than $240 billion.

NAMC is currently in discussion to partner with international technology provider which will provide the state-of-the-art LFP process technology.

Basalt Rebar Project

Harnessing Jordan's abundant volcanic basalt, this USD 60 million venture is progressing through its pilot production line. It transforms a local resource into a non-corroding, eco-friendly reinforcement solution for the construction sector, delivering a high-value, export-ready product to regional and global markets.

Basalt Reinforced bars, 5000 MT capacity with an investment of US$ 60 million.

Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer Rebar (BFRP Rebar) provides a non-rusting reinforcing Rebar, and is a new technology with significant promise for the construction industry.

The fiber rebar is made from the basalt rock which is a type of rock formed by volcanic activity, the fiber rebar is harmless and eco-friendly. The fiber rebar is now used in construction projects, and it is available in different lengths and thicknesses. It is also used as an insulator, support, and reinforcement material.

NAMC is in advanced discussions with major regional manufacturer to build a plant in Jordan.

Lithium Refinery

A planned USD 250 million refinery with 25,000-ton processing capacity, conceived to address the urgent shortfall in refined lithium chemicals and expand reliable supply for rapidly growing global demand.

Lithium Refinery with 25,000 MT refining capacity with an investment of US$ 250 million

Lithium is a soft, silvery-white alkali metal. It is the lightest metal and has high electrode potential. This high-charge to weight ratio makes it an essential component of battery cathode materials. The transition to electric vehicles is happening fast, globally.

The demand for Battery Grade lithium chemicals is rising exponentially.

Europe will need up to 18 times more lithium by 2030. 

Downstream and midstream battery capacity is expanding. However the supply of refined lithium chemicals is missing in Europe. There is an urgent need for lithium refining and conversion capacity in the European Union.

Manganese Sulfate Plant with an investment of US$ 150 million.

Battery-grade manganese sulfate, a key component in lithium-ion battery cathodes. NAMC is planning to build a manganese sulfate plant and to qualify for the EV incentives under the Inflation Reduction Act. NAMC is in direct discussions with two major international Manganese sulfate partners.
