Defense Metals
Defense Metals Corp. (TSX-V: DEFN)(OTC: DFMTF), a junior exploration company, engages in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in Canada. It has an option agreement to acquire the Wicheeda rare earth element project covering an area of 1,708 hectares located in British Columbia. The company was formerly known as First Legacy Mining Corp. and changed its name to Defense Metals Corp. in December 2018. The company is headquartered in Vancouver, Canada.
Rare earth elements are critical for use in the electric power industry. They have significant military, and national security applications and in the production of green energy technologies, such as, high strength, light weight, rare earth magnets. Defense Metals is well-positioned to meet demand for North American-sourced critical REE’s with one of the highest grade road accessible deposits, with potential to reduce the political and strategic risk of current reliance on Chinese REE sources.
