The Project’s Objective Is to Extract Tellurium at the Outset of the Copper Production Value Chain, Starting From the Copper Concentrate. This Holds the Potential to Enhance Overall Tellurium Recovery by Approximately 50-75% Compared to Current Recovery Rates for Suitable Ore Bodies. Budget Period 1: • Procure Suitable and Representative Feed Material • Procure, Install and Commission Process Equipment • Verification of the Scalability of the Process Capabilities Compared to Pre-award Results • Data Collections From Industry Stakeholders and Incorporation in Preliminary Techno-economic Analysis Budget Period 2: • Proof of Concept of the Full Capability of the Proposed Process Scheme • Finalize the Techno-economic Analysis • Community Engagement Has Been Collected and Analyzed • Enhance Diversity & Future Workforce Training the Expected Project Outcomes Are: (1) to Have a Proof of Concept of the Process at a Small Continuous R&D Scale for the Extraction of Tellurium and (2) to Use the Collected Information From Stakeholders to Refine the Economic Assessment of the Process.

Everything here is this single award's whole record — signed, amended, paid — not a fiscal-year slice. The by-year charts elsewhere split an award across the years it was committed; this page keeps it whole.
Committed is what the government has legally promised on this award so far. Contracts can also carry a ceiling — the maximum if every option is exercised. Unspent ceiling is headroom, not money owed.
The cash actually disbursed against this award. The gap from committed is the disbursement pipeline: promised, not yet cashed.
Each transaction is a signing event — an action that created or changed the award, dated the day it was signed — not a payment. Negative amounts are real: money de-committed at closeout or renegotiation.
One bar, the award’s whole arithmetic: paid out, then committed, not yet paid, then .
