The U.S. has banned the export of battery scrap, black mass, and tungsten scrap.

The plan is to keep these materials within the country and develop a stronger local recycling industry.

Here's my question...

If some big U.S. Battery recycling companies are already having a time will this ban really make the industry better?. Might it cause new problems?

What do you think this will mean for:

black mass prices?

Battery scrap supply?

Recyclers and traders in India and other countries?

I would like to know your opinions.
