Albany Graphite Project Albany is an igneous-hosted, fluid-derived graphite deposit located in Claim Block 4F, comprised of 521 mining claims (461 single-cell claims and 60 boundary-cell claims) located north of Lake Superior and southwest of James Bay in north-eastern Ontario, and all related, chattel, drill core, and applicable contracts (collectively, the "Albany Graphite Project").

In this environment, the demand for North American sourced graphite is expected to increase significantly. The Government of Canada is also supporting the Electric Vehicle industry and its supply chain as demonstrated by an up to $13 billion investment in a new battery manufacturing plant in St. Thomas, Ontario.
