The Assay TV catches up with Luisa Moreno, president and director of Defense Metals Corp (TSXV: DEFN), a company focused on developing its 100% owned Wicheeda REE Project in British Columbia, Canada.
She chats with us about Defense’ recent completion of pilot plant testing at Wicheeda, the initiation of PFS design work, and China’s part in the supply chain and production of critical minerals considering their recent restrictions on gallium and germanium.
Luisa explains rare earth elements (REE) uses across different sectors like in the production of defense and green energy technologies, magnets used in wind turbines, and in motors for electric vehicles and what these restrictions mean for the rare earths sector.
