Global Energy Metals Receives TSX Venture Approval to use Re-2Ox Technology

The hydrometallurgical process will complement a wider exploration and drilling program that will allow for reinterpretation of historic data and a better understanding.

Canada Cobalt Works Inc. (TSXV: CCW) (OTC: CCWOF) (Frankfurt: 4T9B) (the “Company” or “Canada Cobalt”) is pleased to announce that Global Energy Metals Corp. (“GEMC”) has received approval from the TSX Venture Exchange for the acquisition of Canada Cobalt’s Re-2OX technology to accelerate the advancement of the Lovelock mine and Treasure Box projects.

Highlights

• Re-2OX skips the normal smelting process to achieve exceptionally high recovery rates for cobalt, nickel and copper, while also removing 99% of arsenic expanding the potential of the Lovelock mine by potentially creating battery grade cobalt sulphate.
• The hydrometallurgical process will complement a wider exploration and drilling program that will allow for reinterpretation of historic data and a better understanding of the ability to unlock potential from GEMC’s Nevada based projects.
• GEMC is currently formulating plans for exploration and drilling programs to advance the battery minerals project.
• The Lovelock and Treasure Box projects represent an unique opportunity to make a new battery metals discovery in Nevada, a proven mining district ranked as the most attractive mining jurisdiction by the Fraser Institute’s Annual Survey of Mining Companies, 2018.

The Transaction

Details of the transaction is described in GEMC’s news release announced on May 30, 2019, pursuant to which the GEMC has agreed to purchase a right to use for a period of one year the Company’s Re-2OX technology. In consideration for use of the technology, GEMC shall pay to Canada Cobalt a cash payment of $50,000 and issue 2,000,000 units (“Units”) of GEMC at a price of $0.075 per Unit for deemed consideration of $150,000.
