About BlueBird Battery Metals
BlueBird Battery Metals (TSXV: BATT; US: BBBMF) is
a Canadian publicly listed company focused on the global
exploration and development of strategic battery metals projects,
primarily cobalt and nickel. BlueBird's goal is to pursue a
business model that offers direct and long-term leverage to the
price appreciation in nickel and cobalt, two principal materials in
EV batteries. The Company plans to become a leader in the battery
metals sector, as cobalt is currently in a global supply deficit,
has a vulnerable supply chain, and is part of an emerging sector
with extraordinary potential. BlueBird is advancing its portfolio
of battery metals focused assets in Western Australia and the Yukon, Canada, and is currently reviewing new
acquisition opportunities to add to the Company's project
portfolio.
