What AMG Critical Materials does

Dutch producer of critical and specialty metals like vanadium, lithium and antimony, plus vacuum-furnace engineering systems.

Sells metals and alloys at market-linked prices and equipment on project contracts, so earnings combine commodity cycles with the order book of its furnace business. Its vanadium comes from recycling refinery and industrial residues, and lithium output is a build-out in Germany, where it refines lithium hydroxide.

In one line: A Dutch critical-minerals and specialty metals producer.
