VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – Vancouver, British Columbia, | 14 April, 2023 – Green Battery Minerals Inc. (“GEM” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: GEM, FSE: BK2P, WKN: A2QENP OTC: GBMIF) is pleased to announce it has appointed AdvanceCap Inc., a fully integrated capital markets services firm, to help GEM increase its visibility on the capital markets.
AdvanceCap, recently formed by a group of highly successful Bay Street and Wall Street professionals, will assist the Company with its investor and influencer outreach, as well as provide admin services to support GEM’s IR efforts.
Thomas Yingling, President and CEO for GEM, commented, “We have made very considerable progress at our Berkwood graphite property. With less than 10% of the property fully explored, the Company’s drilling programme has already resulted in very significant graphite resource to fuel the exponentially growing lithium-ion battery sector. With 97 new graphite mines needed to meet projected demand, now is the time to take our operations and the Company to the next level and be a much more active market participant. We are pleased to have signed up AdvanceCap whose pedigree, experience and connections, we believe, will help us increase our profile and help the Company realize its true value for investors.”
Marc Lakmaaker, CEO of AdvanceCap, added, “Graphite, an anode material, is by weight the largest mineral constituent of lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) powering the EV revolution (15 times more graphite needed than lithium). To us, the equation is simple: the word needs graphite, there is a shortage of graphite, GEM is developing an impressive graphite resource and generating significant value. Furthermore, GEM is also an innovator in the space as it is working on developing the next generation of LiBs based on graphene, to be produced from GEM’s graphite. The combination of the resource quality and size with potentially disruptive innovation is what makes GEM such an interesting company for us to work with and we look forward to introducing the story to a new generation of critical mineral investors.”
In consideration of the services, the AdvanceCap shall receive $6,000 cash upon TSX approval and $3,000 for the second and third month. In addition, the Company has agreed to grant AdvanceCap an option to purchase up to 375,000 common shares at $0.08 per share for one year, granted in accordance with the Company’s Omnibus Share Incentive Plan.
AdvanceCap does not currently own any securities, directly or indirectly in the Company.
The agreement with AdvanceCap is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
