Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) - Primary Cobalt Corp. (CSE – PRIM) ("Primary" or the "Company") further to its announcement of April 8th, 2018 has submitted its work program on potential of Vanadium, Lead, Copper and REE permits in Badajoz province (Extremadura) in Central Spain. permits in Badajoz, in west-central Spain totalling 285sqmi/73,814 hectares (collectively the “Two Permits”).
The Badajoz province is the unique region of Spain where the Vanadium was extracted on an industrial scale. During the first quarter of the 20th century, the production was considered the highest in the world.
The vanadinite appears in dikes with NE-SW direction and it is associated with cerusite and blend, calcite and iron oxides. The vanadinite comes from the alteration of the blend, having been the vanadium its origin in the host rock amphibolites.
The average vanadium grades historically extracted were 4-5% vanadium oxides (V2O5) with concentrations reaching up to 12% of (V2O5).
