About Libra Energy Materials

Libra is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on the discovery and development of the critical minerals necessary for the green energy transition. Libra’s Flanders North, Flanders South, and SBC projects in Ontario are being explored under a $33M earn-in deal with KoBold Metals Company.

In addition, Libra has vast land holdings across Ontario and Quebec in which it maintains a 100% interest. The Libra team comprises a mix of seasoned executives, engineers, and geoscientists, with extensive experience in mining and mineral exploration, capital markets, asset management, energy, and First Nations engagement.

Some of Our Projects

Flanders North & South

New grassroots spodumene discovery in Ontario, up to 2.86% Li2O, and coarse-grained tantalite discovery, up to 4,469 ppm Ta2O5, off the all-season Flanders Road. Under KoBold Earn-In.

SBC

Award-winning grassroots lithium discovery in Ontario: 18 new spodumene outcrops over a >12km trend found in ~1.5 weeks, pegmatites up to ~30m wide, spodumene crystals up to 16″ long, grading up to 6.64% Li2O. Under KoBold Earn-In.

Toivo

Adjacent to SBC in Ontario, straddling the same Uchi-English River sub-province boundary. 100%-owned by Libra.

Nemiscau

Mapped pegmatites up to 100m wide, in Quebec’s James Bay region, adjacent to Azimut Exploration. 100%-owned by Libra.

Wegucci

Untested pegmatite targets along trend of and along the same sub-province boundary as Rio Tinto’s Whabouchi deposit (55.7 Mt @ 1.4% Li2O). 100%-owned by Libra.

The KoBold Advantage

KoBold Metals Company is a US-based exploration and mining company that combines expertise in geosciences with artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science to improve and accelerate the exploration process in search for the critical minerals necessary for the global energy transition. In November 2024, KoBold and Libra entered into a C$33M earn-in agreement to jointly explore Libra’s Flanders North, Flanders South, and SBC projects in Ontario.

The Ultimate Counter-Cyclical Lithium Play

Favourable Macro

Lithium demand set to grow at a 19.57% CAGR from 2025-2030 (Mordor Intelligence), with a deficit returning in 2026 (Fastmarkets).

Consolidator Opportunity

Price volatility presents opportunities for bottom-market M&A.

Money in the Ground

Partner-funded exploration, low G&A, and revenue generation minimizes share dilution risk.

Real Miners, Not Stock Promoters

Libra’s technical team won the 2024 Bernie Schnieders Discovery of the Year Award.

The Right Vehicle

Tight share structure, ~50% insider ownership, with top shareholders subject to indefinite lock-up period.

A Word From Our CEO

Koby Kushner, P.Eng., CFA

Former mining engineer and sell-side mining analyst

Genuine grassroots lithium exploration is brand new. Historically, existing lithium mines were enough to cover industrial demand. Today, the battery sector dominates lithium demand, and demand is growing faster than supply on the back of the global electrification and decarbonization efforts. Only recently have we needed to look for new sources of lithium.

Hard-rock lithium occurs in a type of rock called pegmatite. Most pegmatites being drilled off today were historically documented or found by accident while searching for something else. When generating our projects, we ignore “nearology” – proximity to known lithium occurrences – and focus on where lithium-bearing pegmatites should occur, stake it, and explore it. Imagine the opportunity that awaits if we purposely looked for new lithium deposits rather than staking around the accidents.
