Borates are used to make borosilicate glass, which is used in solar photovoltaic panels due to its high chemical resistance and thermal shock resistance. The boron mining specialist, NASDAQ: FEAM, has started construction on its Small Scale Boron Facility (SSBF) with a leading publicly traded contractor in the United States. The SSBF is expected to be operational in Q4 2022, making it the first new boron source in the United States in more than 50 years. Boron is used in a variety of decarbonization devices, including solar panels.
