Defense
Metals is currently advancing the road accessible Wicheeda Critical Rare Earth
Element (REE) Property, which is located close to infrastructure approximately
80 kilometres northeast of Prince George, British Columbia (BC). The Wicheeda project
has indicated mineral resources of
4,890,000 tonnes averaging 3.02% LREO (Light Rare Earth Elements) and inferred
mineral resources of 12,100,000 tonnes averaging 2.90% LREO[1].
Craig Taylor, CEO of Defense
Metals, stated: “Defense Metals looks forward to
attending the 2021 SelectUSA Investment Summit.
At
the Summit, Defense Metals will have the opportunity to meet with worldwide
investors and engage with U.S. economic developers and service providers who
can advise on a potential United States growth strategy. In addition, Defense
Metals will continue its engagement with U.S. Interagency players, including
the U.S. Department of Energy, the Export-Import Bank of the United States, and
the Department of Defense, to reassert its position as a critical player in the
U.S. industrial metals industry.”
The
signing of the U.S.-Canada Action Plan on Critical Minerals Cooperation has
fostered dialogue between Canada and U.S.A like no other time before. Together Canada
and the USA continue identifying vulnerabilities and challenges in supply
chains and facilitating discussions between Canadian mining producers of
critical minerals and rare earth elements and U.S. Interagency groups to create
a more resilient and safe North American supply chain.
With a
renewed U.S.-Canada bilateral dialogue underway, and given the geographic
proximity, the 2021 SelectUSA Investment Summit will take a closer look
at opportunities for Defense Metals to localize its potential upstream
operations near a U.S. end-user to create more resilient access to various
North American end users and make the operation less susceptible to trade
disruptions, while adopting responsible sourcing and sustainable practices in
our industries.
