Claudia,

Your quality of life is brought to you by mining. As soon as you give up everything metal, including electricity which is transmitted on metal lines and produced by metal equipment and give up all concrete, gravle and other aggregates we will stop mining. Get more informed before you post nonsence. Mining is highly efficient and does not significantly contribute to climate change.

you Need to attend a mining class to discover why iron ore cobalt lithium palladium and the 35 strategic metals are critical to a our daily work and living. Mining is so constrained these days it making metals more expensive.

However, One of the companies that had hoped to become part of the battery materials supply chain in North America has sought creditor protection. It may be, like Icarus, they flew too close to the Sun, risking it all to fulfil the dream of Quebec becoming the ‘Green Battery’ of North America as promised by Francois Legault over the last few years. An honourable goal but still fraught with high-risk high-reward ventures. However, there is always room for improvement. The idea was right, but the timing and the material was wrong. Lithium prices were artificially inflated for a period of time from 2016-2018 when a large producer, SQM, was forced to stop production causing a panic among lithium-ion battery makers. When the underlying commodity runs, the stocks follow. Sure enough, when SQM started producing again, prices collapsed. Even though I am not a lithium analyst, I was one of the few that commented (on Linkedin) and was dismissed by the ‘analysts’ in the battery materials business. However, all is not lost, the next commodity that might rise to the fore is graphite. Quebec-mined Flake Graphite which is the only ethical material that may be used to create spherical graphite. The other materials used are from coal and bitumen. Yes, Tesla-owners, right now your li-ion batteries in the cars are made by burning coal tar and oil. Lomiko Metals TSXV: LMR has a big project in Quebec with an opportunity to join the supply chain for this vital materials that by weight and mass is 10-15X more prevalent in a Li-ion battery than Lithium. Imagine the demand for the next decade. 2020s: The Decade of the Electric Vehicle – more at
