Urgent: This Lithium/Cobalt “Double-Play” Risk Reduced Scenario Offers the Best Chance for Maximum Profits from this Historic Shift in the Energy Markets
A green energy revolution is taking place right now.
Surging demand for electric vehicles is a massive, unstoppable megatrend…a “market disruption” unlike anything seen in our lifetimes.
Just about every major car maker is planning to launch an all-electric car by 2020.
“Lithium, the so-called “white petroleum”, drives much of the modern world”

“Fears about cobalt’s scarcity are behind the metal’s recent price surge. Cobalt is hard to get a hold of, and the market [currently] remains relatively small.”
— Quartz
Projections call for up to 30% of all new vehicles sold by 2030 to be electric cars…a shift in consumer demand that requires major changes to the industry.
This long-term shift in consumer demand has triggered an immediate profit opportunity for those investors who get ahead of this trend.
The best way to play the green energy revolution could very well be a little-known junior exploration company that carries remarkable upside potential thanks to a lithium/cobalt “double-play” risk reduced scenario.
This “double-play” risk reduced scenario provides investors with exposure to two soaring markets: lithium AND cobalt exploration.
LiCo Energy Metals (TSXV: LIC) (OTCQB: WCTXF) is a Canadian exploration company focused on high-upside lithium and cobalt projects…and it is – right now – perfectly positioned to take maximum advantage of soaring demand for both lithium and cobalt.
A “World Class” Property Just a Stone’s Throw Away from Where 37% of the World’s Lithium is Produced
The price of lithium is up over 400% in the last three months.
With two potential high-upside properties in mining friendly Nevada – home to the United States’ most lucrative lithium properties and home to Tesla’s lithium-ion battery gigafactory – LiCo Energy Metals (TSXV: LIC) (OTCQB: WCTXF) already offered strong exposure to soaring lithium prices.
But earlier this year, LiCo Energy Metals signed a letter of intent to acquire interest in a major exploitation project in the Salar de Atacama in Chile. This is a serious game changer.
Here’s why:
LiCo’s Purickuta project is located in the Salar de Atacama. This salar is home to the world’s highest lithium grades and is where 37% of the world’s lithium is produced.
Yes…you read that correctly — more than 1/3 of the world’s lithium comes from this salar. And these large-scale, producing operations are as close as 22 kilometers (km) away from LiCo’s project.
The property is literally surrounded by Sociedad Qiumica y Minera (SQM)…
This is the same SQM that is a $2.4 billion behemoth of a company and currently the world’s largest lithium producer. This is a look at SQM…
LiCo’s Salar de Atacma Purickuta project offers:
- The opportunity to move to production in the short-term
- Low cost exploration and extraction potential, thanks to lithium brines within 140 feet from the surface
- The project is close to power, skilled labour, communications, water, transportation and other important infrastructure.
- It is located within the highest-grade lithium salar in the world
- SQM operations are already happening and are just 22 km away from LiCo’s project.
- Attractive buyout potential…with two large producing companies next door.
That last point is big one – a potential acquisition is a true game-changer for investors. And with LiCo Energy Metals (TSXV: LIC) (OTCQB: WCTXF) possessing a property so close to not one but to TWO major producers…the potential for acquisition is always in play.
But LiCo Energy Metals’ lithium story is just one-half of this company’s “Double-Play” risk reduced scenario…
Exposure to the “One of the Highest-Grade Cobalt Projects in the World”
In the last six months, cobalt prices have more than doubled.
Cobalt prices are expected to continue soaring higher in the months ahead. According to Business Insider, “(demand for) electric cars could spike cobalt prices to their highest levels since the financial crisis.”
The simple fact of the matter is that mass production of lithium-ion batteries will require more and more cobalt in both the short- and long-term.
This surge in demand will easily outweigh the supply of cobalt available, and if this happens additional sources of this rare element will need be brought online quickly.
That’s where exploration companies like LiCo Energy Metals (TSXV: LIC) (OTCQB:WCTXF) can turn into potential game-changers.
LiCo Energy Metals (TSXV: LIC) (OTCQB:WCTXF) right now has a high-grade, advanced-stage cobalt project – the Teledyne Cobalt project – located in Ontario, Canada.
According to the Canadian Broadcasting Company (CBC) we are already seeing the results of this demand for cobalt, “There’s an old school gold rush underway in northern Ontario…more than a dozen mining companies are staking out claims.”
And with good reason.
Not only have cobalt prices more than doubled in the last six months, the potential exists for high-grade cobalt in northern Ontario, according to an exploration drilling program conducted in 2012.
And – just like with LiCo’s Salar de Atacma Purickuta lithium project – location is a major factor in the attractiveness of this project.
That’s because LiCo Energy Metals’ Teledyne Cobalt project is located on a property that has a $25 million (inflation adjusted) mining infrastructure thanks to its previous owners.
Situated within a historic mining camp – with valuable infrastructure in place – this could be a property that moves quickly into production…and phase one of the company’s cobalt exploration program is already underway.
Keep in mind that an estimated 18 million kilograms (kg) of silver and 14 million kg of cobalt has already been produced at this property.
But there’s even more to this remarkable property: Based on underground drilling results, inferred reserves accessible on the Teledyne property are estimated to be in excess of a 90,700 tonnes at 0.45% cobalt.
That grade makes Teledyne one of highest-grade cobalt projects in the world.
