CBLT’S Peter Clausi on de-risking exploration projects with M&A

In a comprehensive interview with InvestorNews host Tracy Weslosky, Peter Clausi, President, CEO & Director of CBLT Inc. (TSXV: CBLT), delved into the company’s strategic focus on mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and asset development across the mineral exploration sector. Clausi articulated CBLT’s pre-emptive strategy to bolster its financial position by liquidating assets ahead of anticipated market downturns, ensuring the company remains financially robust with “cash in the bank.” This prudent financial management, according to Clausi, positions CBLT advantageously during both prosperous and challenging times, enabling continued exploration and project development activities.

Clausi emphasized CBLT’s unique approach to growth, stating, “In our belief, you can make more money with the pen than with the drill bit at less risk,” highlighting the company’s success in maximizing value through strategic M&A activities rather than solely relying on direct exploration. This philosophy has allowed CBLT to maintain a lean share structure over 15 years, with only 75 million shares issued, a testament to their efficient capital management and strategic project acquisitions.

The interview further shed light on CBLT’s diverse portfolio, ranging from gold and cobalt to lithium and copper properties across Canada, each selected for its potential to address future market demands. Notably, Clausi spotlighted the acquisition and planned development of the historic Falcon Gold Mine in Sudbury, illustrating CBLT’s knack for identifying and revitalizing underexplored or forgotten assets. This property, alongside others such as Michaela in British Columbia and a lithium property adjacent to the Tanco Mine in Manitoba, underscores CBLT’s strategic foresight in project selection and development.

Adding to the company’s strategic capabilities, CBLT announced the addition of James R. Atkinson, a geologist with over 40 years of experience, to its board of directors, promising to further bolster its expertise in mineral exploration and project evaluation.

Moreover, Clausi provided insights into the company’s recent sale of the non-core Ryliejack asset in northern British Columbia, demonstrating CBLT’s strategic asset management and focus on optimizing its portfolio for financial and operational efficiency. Throughout the interview, Clausi’s narrative was one of strategic foresight, prudent financial management, and a deep understanding of the mineral exploration sector. His perspective on the critical role of copper as a technology metal, over other more transient battery metals, reflected a long-term strategic outlook on commodity investment, emphasizing the importance of adaptability and foresight in the rapidly evolving resource sector. Clausi’s articulate discussion highlighted CBLT’s commitment to strategic growth, value creation, and operational excellence in the exploration industry.

Peter Clausi on CBLT’s M&A strategy and portfolio of critical minerals and gold assets in Canada

In a recent InvestorNews interview with host Tracy Weslosky, CBLT Inc.’s (TSXV: CBLT) CEO, President, and Director Peter Clausi provides insights into CBLT’s multifaceted approach and commitment to strategic mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and value creation in the exploration industry.

Peter discussed how CBLT is focused on acquiring undervalued assets and strategically positioning them for growth. This involves acquiring assets that have temporarily fallen out of favor, improving or waiting for them to regain value, and then selling or partnering with other companies to take them to the next level.

CBLT’s extensive portfolio comprises over a dozen projects and deals, each chosen for specific reasons. One project of particular interest was Falcon Gold Mine, a former producer with impressive historical gold grades. Peter discussed that CBLT’s acquisition of this property was strategic, as it united three neighboring properties with the Garson Fault running through all of them.

Peter mentioned some noteworthy successes and highlighted projects like the Chilton Cobalt Property in Quebec and the Big Duck Lake Project at Hemlo West Camp in Ontario, both brimming with potential. Their involvement in the River-Cat Lake pegmatite field in Manitoba, adjacent to Canada’s only currently producing lithium mine, also promises exciting prospects.

Peter Clausi on CBLT’s sale of Northshore Gold for $1.5 million cash and shares

InvestorIntel’s Tracy Weslosky speaks with Peter Clausi, President, CEO and Director of CBLT Inc. (TSXV: CBLT) about the sale of CBLT’s Northshore Gold Property to Omni Commerce where CBLT ended up being the largest shareholders in Omni. “CBLT purchased a portfolio of four mining assets two years ago,” Peter said. “Paid roughly a million dollars for it. We just sold one of those assets for $1.5 million.”

“We do mineral exploration, but we also do opportunistic M&A,” Peter added. “Any property that is good enough to buy is good enough to sell if you can make profit for the shareholders.” He added, “We have been buying properties inexpensively and then selling them to bidders who could not get their hands on the properties in the first place, and making significant profit for the shareholders.” He continued, “In 2016-17 we generated over a million dollars in revenue for the shareholders against acquisition cost of about a $160,000.”

CBLT closes gold deal for cash while receiving an equity position

Well-managed small cap continues successful M&A activity

Project generator CBLT Inc. (TSXV: CBLT) closes yet another deal. This time CBLT Inc. has closed the sale of its 56% share of the Northshore Gold Property Joint Venture to private company Omni Commerce Corp. (“Omni“). For the sale CBLT Inc. has been paid $350,000 in cash and $1,100,000 in common shares of Omni.

For those investors not familiar with CBLT, it is a well-managed small cap company that focuses on making cash positive deals to avoid stock dilution while at the same time also gaining equity share exposure in the new venture. The strategy is effectively building stakes in junior cobalt and precious metal companies and projects in Canada in addition to owning several of their own projects.

CBLT to retain significant equity in Omni which plans to immediately develop the Northshore Gold Property

What is positive about the Omni deal is CBLT becoming a significant shareholder in Omni. This is because Omni intends to acquire the remaining 44% interest of the Northshore Gold Property from Balmoral Resources Ltd. CBLT says that it “has also been advised by Omni that Omni has submitted a listing application to the Canadian Securities Exchange,” and that “Omni intends to change its name to ‘Ready, Set, Gold!’ to better demonstrate its business focus, and that Omni intends to aggressively develop Northshore Gold immediately.”

CBLT Inc.’s CEO Peter M. Clausi commented that the company is “happy with our equity position which gives us passive ongoing exposure to gold and to Omni’s development success. It also allows us to continue our plan to create shareholder value by continuing with strategic M&A activity, as with Northshore Gold, and by developing our Canadian mining assets. We expect to be in the field at Big Duck Lake, also in Hemlo, later this year.”

The Northshore Gold Property sits on the Schreiber-Hemlo Greenstone Belt and hosts the Afric Zone, about 115 kms west of Hemlo and 200 kms east of Thunder Bay, Canada. Indicated Resources are 391,000 ounces of gold, with an additional 824,000 ounces of inferred resources, all found within the Afric Zone.

Past drilling programs have been undertaken in the region over the last few years, including some high grade intercepts of 12.49 g/t over 33.2 metres and 4.35g/t over 14.6 metres. The Afric Gold Zone continues to demonstrate significant mineralized widths to depth, highlighted by an intercept of 124.50 metres grading 1.05 g/t gold in hole WB-18-54. The Resource has a broad mineralized envelope which includes a high grade core, which returned 7.00 m grading 11.15 g/t gold, including 1.00 m grading 56.50 g/t gold. The deposit, and the high grade core, have now demonstrated continuity to a little over 250 vertical metres depth and remain open.

Closing remarks

For investors wanting a well-managed exploration and deal project generator company with a very low market cap, then CBLT Inc. is well worth a long look. With a market cap of only C$3.26m, investors gain exposure to over 12 projects with base metals (Co, Ni, Cu) and precious metals potential (Au, Ag, PGMs), as well as equity exposure to other small explorers such as Omni. The potential valuation proposition is outstanding. The outcome for investors will depend on continued exploration and deal success. One to follow closely.




CBLT’s Clausi on global demand for cobalt

“Cobalt is in high demand at the moment and has spiked 128% over the past 12 months…” — starts Kelly Bird of InvestorIntel in an interview with Peter Clausi, CEO, President and Director of CBLT Inc. (TSXV: CBLT).

Peter Clausi: We have strong cobalt assets that are in demand globally. In fact we are going to Australia this week. By the time this video airs we should be back from Australia with results carrying out M&A activity with our Ontario and Quebec assets. In February of 2016 cobalt was at $21,750 a ton.

Kelly Bird: And it is up to $75,000 at the moment, correct?

Peter Clausi: Right. Your 128% number is nice, but it is far more than that dating back to February of ‘16. Two years ago it has gone from $21,750.00. There is a decrease in supply. The Katanga Mine in the Congo is coming on stream. Whether it is going to reliably produce more cobalt or not is still up in the air to be seen. Katanga has had some issues and management they have had some compliance issues. They have had to restate financials and it is the Congo so infrastructure is a challenge.

Kelly Bird: CBLT is based in Canada. Most of your projects are in northern Ontario. I know your flagship project, Copper Prince, has had some really interesting sample results come back – tell us a bit more about this

Peter Clausi: We picked that property up about 2 years ago. We thought there was cobalt at the south end. Historically that property has been worked since the late 1880s. Significant amounts of gold, copper, nickel up in the north end. We thought there was cobalt in the south end and our work there has proven that up. We just got results back from the Ontario Geologic Survey, the district geologists that work on their own…to access the complete interview, click here
