Commodity 02 · Manganese
Critical metal for steel and batteries.
Premium manganese ore from one of the world's richest mineralised regions — targeting 75,000 tonnes per month into global markets.
Overview
A strategic position in Manganese.
Iyana's manganese strategy is anchored to South Africa's Kalahari Manganese Field — host to roughly 80% of the world's known economic manganese resources. The asset is positioned to supply both traditional alloy markets and the rapidly growing battery sector.
Manganese demand is structurally supported by global steel production and accelerated by lithium-ion battery growth, where high-purity manganese sulphate is a key cathode input.
