In this episode, we speak with Ken Brinsden, who is the CEO and Managing Director at Patriot Battery Metals, who are a hard-rock lithium exploration company focused on advancing its district-scale 100% owned Corvette Property located in the James Bay region of Quebec. Ken is a mining engineer from the Western Australia School of Mines with over 25 years of experience in surface and underground mines and has been involved in the development of Atlas Iron Limited and more recently, discovering the world’s largest hard rock lithium deposit for Pilbara Minerals in Western Australia. Ken gives an overview of the company and the resources they have discovered with the excellent geology around the Quebec region. He discusses the current lithium market and the positive outlook of the sector he believes is around the corner. A must listen to all in the Lithium space. KEY TAKEAWAYS The Corvette project in Quebec benefits from a favourable infrastructure, including proximity to Hydro-Quebec's dams and distribution networks, which will support the development of the mine. Quebec's mining industry, with a history dating back to the 1840s, provides a strong foundation for the development of mining projects like Corvette, with a skilled workforce and supportive regulatory environment. The lithium market, despite recent price fluctuations, shows promise for growth, especially with the increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles and energy storage solutions. Patriot Battery Metals is focused on delivering an upgraded resource, completing feasibility studies, and obtaining environmental approvals to commence construction at Corvette in the next three to three and a half years. BEST MOMENTS "The life of mine is shy of 22 years, currently at 800,000 tons per annum of spodumene production, which would make it the second biggest mine in the world currently." "I think the growth in China is material. Their moves to dominate the lithium-ion battery industry are very, very significant. And I cannot see them slowing down." "There's a lot of positives around lithium for the future. So obviously don't be disheartened with the price of lithium at the moment."
