5E Advanced Materials:
Key Highlights and Achievements
- Currently in production at the 5E Boron Americas Complex to prove a path to commercial scale.
- 5E will operate across the value chain: resource extraction, refinement, and distribution.
- Commercial production fully permitted (90ktpa) with phased expansion plans1.
- Proven capability at the Small Scale Boron Facility, now operational and consistently delivering specification-compliant production.
- Production optimization has successfully achieved commercial-grade boron extraction with a head grade reaching up to 6% boron.
- Strategically located in Southern California near major logistics hubs, optimizing domestic and global distribution channels.

Hardness
Only Carbon (diamond) is harder than Boron composites.

Light Weight
5th lightest of all elements after Lithium and Beryllium.

Heat Resistant
Only 11 elements have higher melting points (3,771°F).

Anti-Microbial
Boron clusters have anti-biofilm activity and are less prone to drug resistance.

Corrosion Resistant
Boron-infused metals and specialty ceramics reduce corrosion propensity.
