5E Advanced Materials Ships First 20 Tons of U.S.-Mined Boric Acid

October 14, 2025

DENVER, Colo., Oct 14, 2025 (247marketnews.com)- 5E Advanced Materials (NASDAQ:FEAM) is making tangible progress toward its commercial goals, announcing the successful shipment of 20 tons of boric acid from its Fort Cady operations in Southern California. The delivery will be used in specialty glass trials, marking a key step in validating the company’s production capabilities.

In addition to the bulk shipment, 5E also confirmed plans to send 1,000 pounds of product for domestic boron carbide (B4C) production, a material with critical applications in defense and armor systems. The moves support 5E’s broader strategy to establish a reliable, U.S.-based boron supply chain, as global markets remain heavily reliant on China.

“These shipments confirm the quality of our product and the reliability of our process technology,” said CEO Paul Weibel, highlighting FEAM’s transition from development to near-term commercial operations.

The Fort Cady site, designated as Critical Infrastructure by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, hosts one of North America’s largest undeveloped boron deposits. As the energy transition and decarbonization efforts accelerate, 5E is positioning itself to supply key materials for clean energy, defense, and high-tech glass manufacturing.

With strategic engagement underway across the energy, defense, and specialty manufacturing sectors, FEAM is shaping up to be a critical domestic player in the critical minerals landscape.
