Today, we are featuring EVs, and how to capitalise on the growing demand of the sector.

Electric Vehicle Global Market to 2026 - Insights and Forecast with Impact of COVID-19

"The global electric vehicle (EV) market was valued at USD 169.95 Billion in the year 2020. Growth in the Electric Vehicles Market is mainly driven by growing environmental concerns and the active steps taken by various governments towards zero emission laws, thereby reducing the carbon emissions in the environment."


REZ

For our gold pick, we are featuring Resources & Energy Group (ASX:REZ)

Resources & Energy Group has recently raised a total of $2.7M and brought on a new cornerstone investor whilst doing so. 

This money raised, together with the recent gold pour on the 26th of October, is shaping the Company’s future to be the next Australian gold producer, whilst also exploring the tenement even further.

REZ announced on 30/11 that it has completed its first Granny Venn Milling campaign, with a result of 1,766 ounces poured with a head grade of 2.47g/t and a recovered grade of 2.23g/t. This represents 97% of the modelled reserves tonnes, 107% of the modelled grade and 104% of the estimated ounces recovered.

The east cutback is the primary resource for the operation with early indicators that the ore resources are larger than originally modelled. This will be confirmed following receipt of grade results from the first ore shots.

Locksley Resources (ASX:LKY)

The copper theme has brought much attention to small-cap copper stocks, and as traders look to speculate on these for a potentially greater return, a largely overlooked opportunity has been Locksley Resources (ASX:LKY).

Locksley has released its first batch of results from its maiden drilling program at the Tottenham Project.

The Company is looking to convert an exploration target of 7Mt @ 2% Cu, 1.0g/t Au to 14Mt @ 1.2% Cu, 0.5g/t Au into a resource consistent with the JORC 2012 code.

Element 25 Ltd (ASX:E25)

Element 25 (ASX:E25) owns 100% of the world world-class Butcherbird Manganese Project, located in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.

An often forgotten material, manganese plays an important role in the development of EVs. Elon Musk publicly stated, on battery day 2020, that Tesla's next-generation batteries will be ⅓ manganese and he addressed the supply issue that is currently on hand

On the 4th of November, E25 announced it had revised its shipping strategy with substantial cost mitigation to ease the brunt of current shipping congestion. This has impacted its gross margins for the first two shipments and the revised strategy has successfully resulted in a tariff reduction for the third concentrate shipment of approximately 45% from peak rates to date, bringing the realised rate down to USD$0.75/dmtu.

With already strong financials behind the project, demonstrated through a very healthy 359% IRR pre-tax, E25 is set up to reap the rewards of the global demand in manganese. 

 


Nickel Stock Pick

 

Auroch Minerals (ASX:AOU)

Auroch Minerals (ASX:AOU) is focused on the exploration of nickel projects in Western Australia, with its three projects all having historical mineral resources on the land. 

The Company recently raised $8M to fund these exploration programs, starting with a diamond drill programme into the high-priority Nepean Deeps target area.

The second drill hole is underway and will be targeting DHEM conductor 1A/1B currently at 300m depth, whilst another three metallurgical drill holes have been sent to test work to be completed. 

Investigation in this area also continues with rock chip sampling and field mapping being completed to assess for lithium-caesium-tantalum (LCT) potential.
