Jim Nelson, President of Cruz states, "We are pleased to have now hired a drill contractor for our upcoming 2021 drill program in the historic silver-cobalt producing region of Cobalt, Ontario. This drill program is expected to begin shortly and will be fully funded by flow-through funds already on-hand. On June 17, 2021, in a recent electric vehicle (EV) segment featured on CNBC, consulting firm Alix Partners, who tracks auto-investments around the world, announced that through 2025 the auto-industry is estimated to invest $330 billion on EV infrastructure, in addition to having an estimated 24% of all auto-sales being EV's by 2030. EV sales are expected to surge for the rest of this decade along with the demand for battery metals. Cruz is in a unique position to potentially capitalize on both our cobalt and lithium assets. Not only does Cruz have cobalt projects in Ontario & Idaho, we also have a lithium project in the Clayton Valley of Nevada, being one of the few companies that has access to the deepest parts of the only lithium brine basin in production in North America (see map below). Cruz currently has approximately $1.5 million in the treasury, including flow-through funds. We are about to come into a major news flow cycle and management remains confident that 2021 will be a transformative year for the Company as Cruz has multiple strategically located, and ethically sourced, cobalt and lithium projects in North America."
