About Critical Elements Corporation
Critical Elements is actively developing its 100%-owned Rose
lithium-tantalum flagship project located in Quebec.
A recent financial analysis of the Rose Project based on price
forecasts of US$260/kg ($118/lb) for Ta2O5 contained in a tantalite
concentrate and US$6,000/t for lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) show an
after-tax Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of an estimated 25% for the
Rose Project, with an estimated Net Present Value (NPV) of CA$279
million at an 8% discount rate. The payback period is estimated at
4.1 years. The pre-tax IRR is estimated at 33% and the NPV at $488
million at a discount rate of 8%. (Mineral resources that are not
mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability).
The project hosts a current NI 43-101-compliant Indicated
resource of 26.5 million tonnes of 1.30% Li2O Eq. or 0.98% Li2O and
163 ppm Ta2O5 and an Inferred resource of 10.7 million tonnes of
1.14% Li2O Eq. or 0.86% Li2O and 145 ppm Ta2O5.
Critical Elements is presently in the tendering process for the
various aspects of the feasibility study and has commissioned
Genivar to complete an environmental impact study of Rose deposit
and Acme Metallurgical Ltd. of Vancouver is carrying out project
metallurgy.
Critical Elements' portfolio also includes rare-earth and
tantalum-niobium projects in the Rocky Mountains of British
Columbia and in Quebec, as well as a 50% interest in the Croinor
project, which is located in Quebec and hosts a current NI
43-101-compliant measured and indicated resource of 814,228 tonnes
