With awareness of the harmful impact of greenhouse gases growing, GEMC says demand for cobalt – which is used in electric car batteries – is also on the rise.

In fact, cobalt is the top performing base metal so far in 2017 with the price more than doubling.

The company has a cobalt footprint in Canada and recently added to that buy acquiring the Millennium cobalt project in Australia.

Shares opened 4.2% higher at C$0.12 on Monday morning.
