MEETING WITH BRETT, CEO MD SAYONA MINING, page-100

The Port of Quebec seems well equipped to handle bulk battery material.

I wonder if Sayona is using Glencore’s facility?

“Our facilities at the Port are divided into two sections, one for nickel concentrate from Raglan Mine and one for nickel matte from Sudbury INO:

• Nickel concentrate is created during primary processing. We ship nickel concentrate from Raglan Mine via the Port of Deception Bay to the Port of Québec, where it is loaded onto railcars for shipment to the smelter in Sudbury. About eight trips are made each year, carrying a total of about 240,000 tonnes.
• Nickel matte is produced from the smelting of ore concentrates, which lowers the iron content and removes impurities. The nickel matte is shipped from our Sudbury Smelter to the Port of Québec by rail and loaded onto ships bound for Kristiansand, Norway. The Sudbury Smelter and a Norwegian refinery, Nikkelverk, have had a connection since the 1920s, and we have been shipping nickel matte there since 1960. About 22 ships travel each year from the Port of Québec to our facility in Norway, carrying a total of 140,000 tonnes.”
