1. Raw Materials - Tantalite
Tantalum is a rare metal that
constitutes roughly 0.0002% of the Earth's crust. It is primarily sourced from
tantalite ore, which is found in pegmatite formations and alluvial deposits.
Stanford Advanced Materials sources high-grade tantalite from ethical mining
operations, ensuring compliance with Conflict-Free Minerals regulations.
2. Recycling of Scrap Materials
Tantalum recycling represents a
significant portion of the global supply chain, with approximately 20-30% of
tantalum coming from recycled sources. The recycling process involves
collecting scrap from various sources, including end-of-life electronic
components, manufacturing waste, and obsolete equipment containing tantalum
parts.
