Previous Success
•	 Rainy River
Gold - $1.2billion market cap at its peak; sold 	
to Newgold
•	 Xemplar
Uranium - $1bn market cap at its peak
•	 Ryland Oil
Oil & Gas - $114m sale to Crescent Point
•	 Webtech Wireless  
Tech - $300m at its peak
•	 Pure Energy
 Lithium - $65m at its peak
Intrepid Financial’s philosophy:
•	 Early identification of industry trends
•	 Acquiring, developing and financing the right assets
•	 Assembling a world-class team
The team’s belief is that cobalt is the next trend
of note owing to both the increase in price of the
underlying asset and the quantifiable shortage.

What is Cobalt?
•	 Cobalt (Co): a brittle, hard, greyish – white magnetic metal that melts at 1495C. Its high melting point and ability to retain
strength at high temperatures makes it an irreplaceable metal for industrial application
•	 Cobalt’s uses vary from aircraft engines to its main use in rechargeable batteries
•	 Battery production accounts for 49% of cobalt demand*
•	 A key component in Tesla’s Lithium Ion Batteries

Cobalt Supply Issues
The majority of current cobalt source comes
from mining in the Democratic Republic of
Congo (DRC) or as a byproduct of copper and
nickel mines, but presents significant ethical
issues.
•	 Lower copper prices have triggered a
number of large mines to shut down, thereby	
cutting off cobalt sources
•	 Over 10% of cobalt production is currently
offline resulting from closures due to weak
copper and nickel prices
•	 Properties with higher cobalt to copper
ratios will resume production sooner
8STM:TSX-V
Global Cobalt
Market
The DRC, an area of high political and
economic risk, contains close to half of
the world’s known cobalt reserves.
•	 The DRC supplies >50% of the world’s
mined cobalt*
~20% of such production is
attributed to artisanal mining
DRC mining practices are under 		
increasing international scrutiny
*USGS 2016: Mineral Commodities Summary
9STM:TSX-V
Tesla Demand
TOTAL US PRODUCTION
•	 2015 -700 tonnes mined. 2500 tonnes from
secondary production*
•	 Tesla’s first Gigafactory will require 5,000
–10,000t cobalt annually when operating at full
capacity. Where will future supply for Tesla and
other electric vehicle developers come from?
IN ADDITION…
Tesla recently announced that they will commence
production of home energy storage batteries. This
is based on the same technology. Where will the
further supply come from?
*USGS 2016: Mineral Commodities Summary
Tesla and other electric vehicle companies are
currently looking beyond the DRC to avoid
anticipated supply disruptions.

belt of cobalt mineralized Proterozoic-age
Yellowjacket Formation sedimentary rocks
•	 Discovered in the 1940’s as a possible iron deposit.
Explored in the 1970’s by Hanna Mining and later
in the 1980’s and 1990’s by Noranda, Inspiration
Mines, and Cominco
•	 Approximately 30,000 feet of diamond drilling and
1,500 feet of underground drifting has been

Iron Creek Cobalt Project, Idaho
Resources (Historic) - Two zones of cobalt
mineralization known. The first zone com-
prises a high grade underground cobalt
deposit of around 1 million tons of possible
reserves grading 0.61% Co and 0.3% Cu*.
A second zone contains 229,000 tons
averaging 0.48% and 0,24%Cu*.
The Iron Creek historic grades are
comparable to other current high grade
cobalt operations in North America.

o Potential to produce 8,786 tons Li2C03 per year*
o Prices for lithium carbonate have rocketed from 	 	
around $6,400 (U.S.) a tonne in 2015 to more than 		
$20,000 (U.S.) a tonne today **
•	 The Property lies contiguous within 400m of this brine
well and within a zone determined by the USGS to con-
tain greater than 40% Total Dissolved Solids in oil field
brines

Its high melting point and ability to retain strength at high temperatures makes it an irreplaceable metal for industrial application • Cobalt’s uses vary from aircraft engines to its main use in rechargeable batteries • Battery production accounts for 49% of cobalt demand* • A key component in Tesla’s Lithium Ion Batteries *Source: Darton Commodities Drying agents, adhesion-promotors in pneumatic systems Permanent magnets Ceramics and enamels (pigments) Catalysts Cemented carbides and diamond tools Superalloys Rechargeable batteries Applications of cobalt

  • 7. 7STM:TSX-V Cobalt Supply Issues The majority of current cobalt source comes from mining in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) or as a byproduct of copper and nickel mines, but presents significant ethical issues. • Lower copper prices have triggered a number of large mines to shut down, thereby cutting off cobalt sources • Over 10% of cobalt production is currently offline resulting from closures due to weak copper and nickel prices • Properties with higher cobalt to copper ratios will resume production sooner
  • 8. 8STM:TSX-V Global Cobalt Market The DRC, an area of high political and economic risk, contains close to half of the world’s known cobalt reserves. • The DRC supplies >50% of the world’s mined cobalt* ~20% of such production is attributed to artisanal mining DRC mining practices are under increasing international scrutiny *USGS 2016: Mineral Commodities Summary
  • 9. 9STM:TSX-V Tesla Demand TOTAL US PRODUCTION • 2015 -700 tonnes mined. 2500 tonnes from secondary production* • Tesla’s first Gigafactory will require 5,000 –10,000t cobalt annually when operating at full capacity. Where will future supply for Tesla and other electric vehicle developers come from? IN ADDITION… Tesla recently announced that they will commence production of home energy storage batteries. This is based on the same technology. Where will the further supply come from? *USGS 2016: Mineral Commodities Summary Tesla and other electric vehicle companies are currently looking beyond the DRC to avoid anticipated supply disruptions.
