Azure Minerals, which is developing a lithium mine in Australia, has accepted a takeover bid from Chile’s SQM that values Azure at more than $1 billion . The deal requires 75% shareholder approval. In July, Azure rejected a $585 million bid from SQM, which is the company’s largest shareholder with a roughly 20% stake. SQM has also made smaller investments in early-stage lithium miners. It recently agreed to buy a minority stake in Pirra Lithium and is financing exploration activities for Dart Mining in return for equity interest. In addition, Chile’s state-owned mining company, Codelco, will acquire Lithium Power International in a deal worth $244 million. Lithium Power is developing a lithium mine in Chile’s Maricunga salt flat. These acquisition moves follow the recent collapse of Albemarle’s offer to acquire Liontown Resources in a $4.3 billion","PeriodicalId":9517,"journal":{"name":"C&EN Global Enterprise","volume":"46 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136023218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It will begin supplying 225 Ac in the interim; CNL will provide starting material for irradiation at its laboratory in Chalk River, Ontario, and ITM will process the resulting 225 Ac to pharmaceutical-grade material.

It plans to cut 100 employees, or 20% of its workforce. The Cambridge, Massachusetts–based firm also says it will pare back its pipeline. The cost savings from these changes will keep the company going into 2026, according to Beam. Chemist David R. Liu of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard launched Beam in May 2018 —2 years after his lab developed base editors , the firm’s key technology. Base editors deliver a twist on traditional CRISPR-Cas gene editing to make single nucleotide base changes in DNA. In theory, this technology enables the treatment of genetic diseases with more precision and with fewer off-target effects. But despite base editing’s potential, it’s taking time for the technology to yield a clinical product.

For employees of large organizations, that means training season. Our companies rightfully want us to grow in our jobs and become better managers or scientists or salespeople, so they arrange training opportunities for us. I’m trying to be positive about this fall’s training, I really am, but it can be hard. Maybe I have a chip on my shoulder because I am not a trained journalist. C&EN has great reporters and editors who went to journalism school and great reporters and editors who didn’t. Yes, the learning curve was steep at first, but I became a journalist on the job. Likewise, I can’t help thinking I can be a leader and manager by figuring it out as I go.
