“We are very pleased with the accumulation of assets that we have put together over the last year. Cobalt Power today is one of the largest landholders in the historic Cobalt mining camp in and around Cobalt, Ontario. We have extensive drilling inventory and acreage to amass a very large resource play‎ potential in Cobalt”, comments Dr. Andreas Rompel, President & CEO.
