Estimates point to 2022 as equilibrium between Electric and Combustible Sales
Graphite anode demand is set to increase from 194,160 tonnes in 2017 to 1,080,360 tonnes by 2023 and 1,747,800 tonnes by 2028
Automakers are taking action to put millions of electric vehicles on the road
Quebec and B.C Governments dedicated to “Green Economyâ€
Lomiko Metals Inc. has been keenly watching the lithium-ion battery market in anticipation of identifying an opportunity to participate in the supply of materials for electric vehicles with its La Loutre graphite project located in Quebec, Canada. Lomiko is focused on advancing the La Loutre graphite property and is looking to deliver an NI 43-101 graphite resource based on the success of its recently completed drilling campaign at the Refractory Zone. This will add to the previously announced 43-101 graphite resource at the adjacent Graphene-Battery zone announced March, 2016.
A. Paul Gill, CEO states, “Lomiko believes that it is in an ideal position to participate in the burgeoning Electric Vehicle market, with the potential to become a North American supplier of graphite materials, a market currently dominated by foreign supply from China. Graphite is a major and critical material in the manufacture of lithium-ion and other batteries, specifically battery anodesâ€.
According to Benchmark Minerals, graphite anode demand is set
to increase from 194,160 tonnes in 2017 to 1,080,360 tonnes by 2023 and
1,747,800 tonnes by 2028. [Source: INN Graphite Investing News] On
February 4, 2019, Simon Moores of Benchmark Mineral Intelligence
raised supply and demand concerns in a submission to the US Senate
which was echoed by Energy and Natural Resource Committee Chair Senator
Lisa Murkowski in a February 5, 2019 News Release: “In contrast to the
energy sector, our nation is headed in the wrong direction on mineral
imports. This is our Achilles’ heel that serves to empower and enrich
other nations, while costing us jobs and international
competitiveness,†Murkowski said. Lomiko brought this crucial
opportunity to the attention of shareholders in a February 8, 2019.
Recent
announcements and cooperation agreements on electric vehicle and
self-driving cars between Ford and Volkswagen indicates automakers are
taking action to put millions of electric vehicles on the road. Raw
material demand for graphite, lithium and nickel sourced from North
American is likely to increase as a result. Ford
said its battery electric vehicle rollout will start in 2020 with a
performance utility, and it plans to launch 16 battery electric vehicles
by 2022.
In other positive developments,
Quebec Premier Francois Legault reiterated his commitment to make the
Province the ‘Green Battery’ of North America through investments in
electric buses and trams while British Columbia Premier John Horgan aims
to eliminate all gas-powered cars by 2040.

American Creek owns a 20% Carried Interest to
Production at the Treaty Creek Project in the Golden Triangle. 2019’s
first hole averaged 0.683 g/t Au over 780m
in a vertical intercept. The Treaty Creek property is located in the
same hydrothermal system as Pretivm and Seabridge’s KSM deposits.
Eric Sprott recently made a strategic 1$M investment in AMK
Lead by Shawn Ryan and Roger Moss, LAB has 2 district scale Gold projects in Labrador that have never seen any modern exploration techniques. Ashuanipi and Hopedale are being systematically explored for gold potential utilizing the same techniques that created the White Gold discoveries. At Ashuanipi , a 15km long by 2 to 6 km wide north-south trend exists and a second 14 km long by 2 to 4 km wide east-west trend exists. At Hopedale, 2019 exploration has discovered two new mineralized showings.First showing extends potential strike length by approximately 500 metres along strike of the Thurber Dog gold occurrence; Second showing was discovered in the Misery North area
GGX gold has discovered high grade gold silver and tellurium in the
Greenwood-Republic mining camp, British Columbia. The current 2019 drill
program follows up on 2018 intercept of high grade gold-silver (129 g/t gold and 1,154 g/t silver over 7.28 meter) from the near surface COD vein which is projected to be 1.5 kms in length. In addition tellurium grades were announced with “up to 3,860 g/t telluriumâ€, including “823 g/t tellurium over 7.28-meter core length†and “640 g/t tellurium over 6.90-meter core length. 2019 drilling on COD North is currently underway.
Great Atlantic is situated between Marathon Gold and Sokoman in
Canada’s newest emerging gold district. The Company reported a NI
43-101mineral resource estimate for the JMZ in late 2018 on Golden
Promise and 2019 is focused on prospecting and geochemical sampling at
high priority targets within the property. Planned 24 hole program in
the northern half of the property at the gold-bearing Jaclyn Zone,

Lead-zinc-silver mineralization was discovered at Sill Lake in 1892;
since that time sufficient works have been completed so as to define a
(historical) measured and indicated resource of 112,751 tonnes of 134
g/t silver, 0.62% lead, and 0.21% zinc.
A 60 g/t cutoff for silver was used, with no cutoff used for base metals content.
