The Company has two key projects, the Mount Discovery and Greenwinds projects, both being located in the province of Quebec. The Quebec Government geological database (Sigeom) indicates the presence of high values of critical rare earth elements on both properties including neodymium and praseodymium, which are highly sought-after light rare earth elements crucial in the production of electric vehicles, military equipment, and medical devices. Demand for them has increased in recent years with the growth of technology and should continue to climb with the development of the electric vehicle market.
