InvestmentPitch Media Video Discusses Lomiko Metals and its Option of Bourier Project in Quebec from Critical Elements as it Prepares to Explore for Lithium - Video Available on Investmentpitch.com

Lomiko Metals (TSXV: LMR) (OTCQB: LMRMF) (FSE: DH8C) has entered into an option agreement with Critical Elements Lithium Corporation giving Lomiko the right to acquire up to a 70% interest in the Bourier project. Lomiko will earn its interest by way of a joint venture agreement.

The Bourier project is located approximately 85 km east-northeast of the village of Nemaska and approximately 450 km north-northeast of the town of Val-d'Or, Québec. The Bourier property, potentially a new lithium field in an established lithium district in Quebec, consists of 203 claims covering approximately 10,252 hectares or 102.5 square kilometres.

A. Paul Gill, CEO, stated: "Recent consumer interest in electric vehicles has increased investor interest in Lithium and Graphite, two of the major components of a lithium-ion battery. Quebec is in a unique position of having ample supply of both commodities and now Lomiko has opportunities in additional battery materials."

Jean-Sébastien Lavallée, Critical Elements' CEO, added: "This option agreement with Lomiko will allow the Bourier property to be explored in detail for battery minerals discoveries, such as Lithium, Nickel, Copper and Zinc. Critical Elements is currently focused on the development of its Rose Lithium-Tantalum project. With Lomiko as a joint venture partner in the Bourier project, shareholders of both companies will be able to benefit from successful exploration of a highly prospective project."

The northern boundary of the property is marked by intrusive pink granite. The metasedimentary rocks in the centre of the property are intruded by mafic and ultramafic rocks, granites, pegmatites, and late diabase dykes. The pegmatites occur as either pink, which associated with oligoclase gneisses and granite, or white, which is associated with metasedimentary rocks. Outside of work program complete between 2010 and 2012 for Zinc-Copper and Gold by Monarques Resources Inc., there has been very limited lithium exploration undertaken at the Bourier Property.

The Bourier property is adjacent to the Lemare Lithium property, wholly owned by Critical Elements, where in 2012, a previous operator discovered a "granite pegmatite dyke containing a considerable amount of spodumene", which ranged in apparent thickness from 4.8 to 14.2 metres and was followed for close to 200 metres in length on surface.

Under the first option, Lomiko can earn 49% by paying $50,000 in cash, 5 million shares, and incurring $1.3 million in exploration expenditures by December 31, 2022. Subject to completing this first option, Lomiko can increase its interest to 70% by paying an additional $250,000 in cash, 2.5 million shares, and incurring $2 million in exploration expenditures and delivering a NI 43-101 Resource Estimate by December 31, 2023. Should Lomiko produce a drill-defined NI 43-101 resource estimate of between 5 and 20 million tonnes of lithium oxide, Lomiko will pay up to $2 million, payable in cash or shares, at Lomiko's discretion. Please refer to the company's news release for the specific schedule for these terms.

Critical Elements will retain a 2% NSR on the extraction and production of any minerals on the Bourier Property, of which Lomiko can purchase 1% for $2. million. During the agreement, Critical Elements will be the operator on the property. Critical Elements will also retain the exclusive right to market and act as selling agent for any and all Lithium products, including Lithium ore, concentrate and chemical, resulting from the extraction and production activities on the Bourier Property.

Top 5 Canadian Graphite Stocks of 2023

Although graphite demand in other sectors fell in 2022, the electric vehicle and energy storage revolution continues to pick up speed. This means market watchers are keeping an eye on graphite, a key metal used in lithium-ion batteries.

“We're now projecting that by the end of next year, batteries will be the number one leading market for graphite,” Andrew Miller, chief operating officer at Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, said in November 2022. “So this is a turning point for the industry.”

He also predicted that demand for natural graphite anodes will overtake synthetic by the end of the decade.

South Star Battery Metals to Spend $80 Million on Phased Graphite Mine Construction in Brazil

South Star Battery Metals' (TSXV:STS,OTCQB:STSBF) phased approach to bringing its graphite mine to production in Brazil will see the company spend a total of nearly $80 million over the next five years, according to CEO Richard Pearce.

“Industrial metal is something (where) commercial relations have to be developed over time. So we’re stepping into it before we really have to spend oodles of cash,” he said. “So Phase 1 is about a $10 million CAPEX, Phase 2 is about C$37 million or C$35 million CAPEX and then Phase 3 is about a C$30 million CAPEX. So in the next four to five years, we’ll be spending C$80 million to spin that up to 50,000 tonnes of concentrate per annum.”

Phase 1 construction of South Star’s Santa Cruz graphite project in Brazil began in June 2022, and the project is expected to be operational by the end of 2023, with cashflow commencing in January 2024.

On the development front, an additional eight projects in our royalty portfolio have made good progress in the last month, all funded by third parties at no cost to Electric Royalties. We're excited about the portfolio we've built that is diversified across nine clean energy metals, with a growing exposure to each metal.
