Overview The push for a greener economy has led the American and Canadian governments to identify more than 30 minerals as critical commodities. The US government has called for the development of a local supply chain of certain critical minerals –– including battery and platinum-group metals –– that are needed to meet the surging demand from green energy needs. When it comes to sourcing battery and platinum group metals, one type of deposit stands out as a key target. Platreef-style deposits are massive in scale and feature disseminated nickel and copper sulfide mineralization that is enriched with platinum-group elements (“PGE”), gold, chrome, and more. These occur stratigraphically below the high-grade reef-style deposits typically associated with South African PGE mines which are the dominant global source of platinum group metals. Whereas these reef deposits are narrow and require high-cost selective mining methods, the wide widths of Platreef-style deposits are amenable to low-cost bulk tonnage mining methods, resulting in much lower operating costs.
