Review of Operations
For the reporting period the Company continued to manage the advancement of the Cinovec Lithium/Tin Project in Czech Republic. The macro conditions relative to the Project have been very strong for the period. Global lithium prices steadily increased, with more dramatic increases seen immediately post the period. In addition to the global conditions, support within the European Union (the Company's region of operations) for battery metals project development has increased substantially.
Some significant highlights of the project development and EMH level initiatives for the period are as follows.
• Partnership with European Union body
The Company announced a support and financing agreement with KIC InnoEnergy SE ("EIT InnoEnergy") on 28 July 2020. The body is the principal facilitator and organiser of the European Battery Alliance. The purpose of the agreement is to facilitate the accelerated construction financing and ultimate commercialisation of Cinovec, by assisting in:
- Sourcing construction finance;
- Securing grant funding; and
- Assisting in offtake introductions and negotiations.
EIT InnoEnergy leads the European Battery Alliance which was initiated by the European Commission to create a competitive and sustainable battery cell manufacturing value chain in Europe. Since the initiation of this agreement, overall support for green energy initiatives, the development of a European Battery Industry and the continued growth of the Electric Vehicle industry has increased significantly.
• Measured Resource Drilling Commenced
Measured Resource drilling commenced at the Cinovec Project in early August 2020, with the key aims of
- completing a total of nineteen resource drill holes for a total of 5,550 m;
- completing a further two hydro-geological drill holes and four geotechnical drill holes once resource drilling has been completed; and
- the provision of approximately 10t of drill core for further metallurgical testing and to generate samples.
Drilling is aimed at converting a sufficient portion of the existing Indicated Mineral Resource to the Measured Resource category and subsequently to a Mineral Reserve, to cover the first two years of the scheduled mining plan and obtaining a sufficient amount of ore samples for the next phase of metallurgical testing. The majority of the material will be utilised in the pilot scale testing for the Front End Engineering Design ("FEED") Study. A total of nineteen diamond drill holes will be completed for 5,550 metres. A further four geotechnical holes along the planned underground decline route will be drilled and logged subsequent to the completion of the resource drilling. This data will allow final development ready designs to be completed for the declines.
Post period, the Company reported positive results from that portion of this programme that had been completed. The programme has been slightly delayed due to a combination of COVID19 and weather events and is now expected to complete in April 21.
