Gordana Slepcev of Lomiko Metals talks about their 18,000m drill program and graphite’s ESG future
In this InvestorIntel interview with host Tracy Weslosky, Lomiko Metals Inc.‘s (TSXV: LMR | OTCQB: LMRMF) COO Gordana Slepcev talks about the company’s aggressive 18,000 m drill program currently underway at their La Loutre graphite project in Quebec with first results expected later this summer.
In the interview, which can also be viewed in full on the InvestorIntel YouTube channel (click here), Gordana discusses progress on the 120 drill holes on targets named the “Electric Vehicle Zone” and the “Battery Zone” at La Loutre. “The names of the zones are aspirational of where we want to be we want to be,” Gordana told Tracy, “a supplier of critical minerals, especially the graphite for these new and emerging technologies.” Gordana goes on to say that initial lab purification results from Lomiko’s La Loutre graphite project have resulted in over 99.9% purity and low contaminant levels, so “some of the physical and chemical characteristics of the graphite are excellent – better than we actually expected for this first pass.”
Gordana also talks about the importance of Lomiko’s commitment to being an ESG company. “The only way to go forward,” she says “is by adopting all these ESG principles, and we are spearheading that. The reality is in order to decarbonize our future we have to decarbonize transport,” and she says graphite will be an important part of that transformation.
