Canwealth Minerals Corporation update on Shadow Mountain in Northern Quebec.
Montreal, July 29, 2016– Canwealth Minerals Corporation announced updated information regarding the Rare Earth Elements located at Shadow Mountain.
"Although the gold and other mineral findings are in themselves enough to warrant further detailed sampling at Shadow Mountain, what could turn out to be a pleasant surprise is the Lithium and Thorium that has been found in the initial surface core samples.
Most of us recognize the growing importance and expanding presence of Lithium Ion in batteries (Tesla, Boeing, etc.), but what is less know is the potential for Thorium to supplement or perhaps displace Li as an energy source in the future. Not only is Thorium being considered as a potential nuclear fuel (see example from Thorium Power Canada Inc. www.thoriumpowercanada.com/), but Thorium Plasma Batteries (ThPB) have approximately three times the volumetric density of Lithium-ion batteries (source: HJ&A Newsletter Issue #36, 2014Q4 (updated 2016Q2)) which would give electric cars such as the Tesla Model 3 the potential to go way beyond the approximately 350 km range of today with Lithium Ion batteries.
We believe the immediate market pull of Lithium and potentially to come with Thorium, provides for a short term and long term revenue stream that provides for a solid foundation for this project."
