Focused on advancing battery metals projects in proven mining districts.
Nickel
Innovation trends in advanced battery technology require significantly more nickel content in today’s batteries.Copper
Because copper is a highly efficient conductor of electricity and heat, it is used in renewable energy systems to generate power from solar, hydro, thermal and wind energy across the world.Cobalt
Cobalt, primarily mined as a by-product of nickel and copper, is important as a key input for rechargeable batteries, and thus electric vehicles.PGE's
Nano technology may impact demand for Platinum Group Elements (PGE’s) in the mid-to long term as their role is growing in solar energy technologies.As a leading global producer of nickel, copper, cobalt and PGE’s, North America is primed to respond to the growing demand for commodities required in clean energy.
Voltage Projects
St. Laurent Project
With deep knowledge of this project and compelling recent geophysics, Voltage is honing in on high grade Ni-Cu-Co-Pt-Pd-Au massive sulphide targets. An aggressive drill program is planned for early 2022.
Montcalm Project
The Montcalm project features a large land position tied onto a past-producing Nickel-Copper-Cobalt mine. This is a proven camp with historic production of critical battery metals. The size and location of the claims make it ideal to attract an upstream partner.
Jerry Lake Project
The project is an analogue to St. Laurent and represents a new exploration target that has never been explored. Jerry Lake and the St. Laurent projects are the only two Gabbro intrusions in the region.
Gambler Project
Adjacent to Montcalm Project, and encompasses the majority of the underexplored Montcalm Gabbro Complex in the Montcalm Greenstone Belt, a highly prospective area for Nickel-Cobalt-Copper deposits.
Nova Project
The project covers a portion of the eastern boundary of a major regional structure known as the Kapuskasing High (also known as Kap High).
About Voltage
Voltage Metals Corp. (“Voltage” or “the Company”) is a Canadian exploration company focused on advancing battery metals projects in proven mining districts and near producing or former mines.
Voltage holds 100% of four nickel-copper-cobalt projects in Northern Ontario, including its flagship St. Laurent Project, an advanced Ni-Cu-Co-Au-Pt-Pd target located 50km south of Detour Lake Mine and 20km SW of Casa Berardi Mine. The Montcalm, Gambler and Nova projects are near and surrounding the former Montcalm Ni-Cu-Co mine, located 65km NW of Timmins.
The company has entered into a LOI with Mansa Exploration for a transaction whereby it will constitute a reverse takeover of Mansa by Voltage.
Mansa Exploration is a Canadian mineral exploration company listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) under the symbol MANS. Mansa is exploring for Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization on its 100% owned, 19,750-hectare Wheeler Property located in southwestern Newfoundland and Labrador. Mansa also has an option to acquire a 100% interest in the 1,900-hectare Skyfire property located in the Caribou mining area of central British Columbia, Canada.
Project Lineup
Option to earn 100% ownership in six nickel-copper-cobalt projects in Ontario & Newfoundland.
Experienced Explorers
Roster of Geologists with extensive knowledge and hands-on experience in Voltage’s camps.
Brownfield Proficiencies
Upper management proficient in mine operations and Voltage is equipped to capitalize should a coveted/advanced asset opportunity emerge.
Favourable Locations
Timmins and Newfoundland are safe Canadian jurisdictions with well-established mineral potential.
Strategy for Discovery
Voltage is focused on fresh, home-run potential projects: properties with limited historic exploration complemented by sound geology.
High-Demand Metals
Nickel, Copper, Cobalt are key components in electric vehicles and demand for these metals is expected to be robust for decades to come.
