Bolt Metals Corp. (CSE: BOLT) (OTCQB: PCRCF) (XFRA: NXFE),
an Indonesia-based company focused on developing battery mineral projects in
the Asia‐Pacific region, today noted reporting by the Financial Times that
Huayou Cobalt (“Huayou”), “China’s top cobalt producer halts buying from Congo
miners.” The Democratic Republic of Congo (the “DRC”) has been widely reported
to represent 60% of global cobalt production. Huayou, which supplies cobalt to
battery makers LG Chem of South Korea and CATL of China, as well as Chinese
carmaker BYD and Germany’s Volkswagen, is the latest conglomerate to exit the
DRC, joining Apple, Google and several auto manufacturers. According to the
update, Huayou is looking to raise $870m in an effort to expand nickel and
cobalt sulphate production in Indonesia, with its Morowali Industrial Park
plant expected to produce at least 60,000 tonnes of annual nickel content
within two years. “Cobalt remains an important ingredient in battery
chemistries, and international markets are increasingly demanding conflict-free
sources for the metal,” Bolt Metals CEO Ranjeet Sundher stated in the news
release. “Bolt Metals believes Indonesia represents a unique opportunity to
exploit cobalt as a byproduct of the country’s abundant nickel resources. Our
flagship Cyclops nickel-cobalt asset has demonstrated strong results from
2018-19 drilling and benchmark analysis, providing an essential foundation for
the eventual development of a pilot plant.”
