Could Greenwing Resources (ASX: GW1) Be Positioned for the Next Wave in Battery Metals?
With global demand for lithium and graphite accelerating, ASX-listed Greenwing Resources (GW1) is making moves worth paying attention to.
The company has just announced a Share Purchase Plan (SPP) for existing shareholders, offering them the opportunity to acquire additional shares at $0.03 per share, matching the recent institutional placement price.
The SPP seeks to raise up to $1 million, following a $2.5 million placement with professional and sophisticated investors—including $250,000 committed by directors (subject to shareholder approval). This kind of pricing alignment between retail and institutional investors is relatively rare and suggests a deliberate effort to reward long-term shareholder support.
While the SPP is not open to new investors, the company’s asset base, project pipeline, and market positioning may be of broader interest to those following the electrification and energy transition narrative.
Project Highlights: A Multi-Asset Critical Minerals Platform
Greenwing’s operations span three continents and focus on battery-grade lithium and graphite—two essential inputs in lithium-ion battery production.
🔋 San Jorge Lithium Brine Project (Argentina)
- Initial Mineral Resource exceeding 1Mt Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE)
- Over 38,000 hectares under tenure
✏️ Graphmada Graphite Mine (Madagascar)
- 62Mt Graphite Resource under mining lease
- Existing production infrastructure and past sales to US, EU, and Asia
⚒️ Que River Project (Tasmania)
- 2.4Mt Polymetallic Mineral Resource, under lease
- Considerable exploration upside
🛠️ Pipeline Projects:
- Andapa Graphite Project
- Millie’s Reward Lithium Project
Use of Funds: Strategic Allocation to Growth & Maintenance
Capital raised from the SPP and placement is earmarked to support:
- Drilling programs and planning across San Jorge and Graphmada
- Exploration readiness and compliance at Que River
- General working capital and operational continuity
- Ongoing asset maintenance to preserve and build value across projects
Tailwinds in the Battery Supply Chain
Greenwing’s focus aligns with two of the most promising segments in the critical minerals space. According to industry research:
📈 Lithium is projected to grow at a CAGR of 17.7%, reaching USD 74.8 billion by 2030
📈 Graphite is forecast to grow at 9.41% CAGR, hitting USD 24.93 billion by 2030

Both are vital components in the global rollout of electric vehicles, grid-scale storage systems, and renewable technology integration.
Operational Progress and Market Engagement

- Declaring an initial lithium brine resource at San Jorge
- Updating the polymetallic resource at Que River
- Preparing for new drilling and exploration across core assets
- Continuing dialogue with potential strategic partners and joint venture candidates
In its latest investor communication, the company noted it has received broad interest in its projects and is now commencing a formal process to explore strategic investment options. These discussions are ongoing and will be disclosed in line with market rules.
Leadership with Capital at Risk
Greenwing’s Board and management team bring direct, hands-on experience in mining, exploration, and capital markets—with team members having invested their own funds via placements. This signals a level of alignment with shareholders and confidence in the company’s long-term strategy.
