- Quantum Battery Metals Corp. (CSE: QBAT) is a Vancouver-based mineral exploration company focused on identifying, acquiring, exploring, and developing battery metal properties, primarily lithium and cobalt deposits. The company holds a portfolio of projects including the Albanel lithium property covering approximately 2,751 hectares, the Kelso lithium property spanning 1,005 hectares, both in Quebec, Canada; the Kahuna Cobalt-Silver property, Rabbit Cobalt project, and Nipissing Lorrain Cobalt project in Ontario; the Greenhorn property in southeastern British Columbia; Lac Mistumis Lithium property; Hooks Harbour property; and the recently pursued Calico Jack property. These assets target critical minerals essential for electric vehicle batteries and clean energy technologies, with exploration activities encompassing geophysical surveys, sampling, drilling programs, and resource delineation.
Incorporated in 2010 and formerly known as Quantum Cobalt Corp. until its name change in March 2021, the company operates principally in Canada, with headquarters located at 837 West Hastings Street, Suite 400, Vancouver, British Columbia. Quantum Battery Metals serves the burgeoning demand for ethically sourced battery metals amid global transitions to low-carbon economies, positioning its properties near established producers in regions such as the James Bay Area in Quebec and Cobalt mining district in Ontario.
In recent developments, the company announced a strategic 2024 exploration program for the Kahuna Property to advance cobalt assets through comprehensive drilling and sampling initiatives (August 2024); pursued further updates to the Calico Jack acquisition, involving the issuance of 6 million shares for 1500643 B.C. Ltd. to expand its lithium portfolio (October 2024 and July 2025 clarifying disclosure); implemented an 8-for-1 share consolidation effective September 2024 to optimize its capital structure; and commenced planning for exploration at the Rabbit Lake property while actively seeking additional battery metal acquisitions in North America (January 2024). These moves reflect ongoing efforts to enhance project pipelines, address supply shortages in technology metals, and support shareholder value through targeted growth in high-demand segments.
