Tivan Limited (ASX: TVN) is an emerging critical minerals company focused on the development of the Speewah project in Western Australia, one of the world’s largest vanadium and titanium deposits. The company is also advancing a fluorite project and has a strategic partnership with the Australian government to support the development of a domestic critical minerals processing industry.
Our investment thesis is centered on Tivan’s potential to become a key supplier of vanadium, a critical mineral used in steel alloys and increasingly in vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) for energy storage. The company has made significant progress in its metallurgical test work and is progressing towards a final investment decision (FID) on the Speewah project. With the global push for energy transition and supply chain security, Tivan is well-positioned to benefit from government support and rising demand for critical minerals.
Key catalysts over the next 12 months include the completion of a definitive feasibility study (DFS) for Speewah, potential strategic partnerships or off-take agreements, and progress on the company’s fluorite project. The company also has a strong balance sheet with no debt and sufficient cash to fund its near-term activities.
However, investors should be aware of risks, including project execution risks, commodity price volatility, and the need for significant capital to develop the Speewah project. The company may require additional funding, which could dilute existing shareholders.
