Mercer County: North Dakota Center Of Excellence For Extracting Metals For Batteries? October 19, 2022

Mercer County? Think Beulah. 

From The Bismarck Tribune:

A Minnesota metals company is planning a $433 million minerals processing facility in central North Dakota as part of a federal effort to expand domestic manufacturing of batteries for electric vehicles and the power grid. 
The Biden administration on Wednesday awarded $2.8 billion in grants to projects in 12 states including the one in North Dakota's Mercer County
A total of 20 companies nationwide are getting money for projects to extract and process lithium, graphite, nickel and other battery materials, manufacture battery components and strengthen U.S. supply of critical minerals.
