Cruz has property in each of Idaho, Montana and British Columbia as well as being one of the single largest landholders around the town of Cobalt, Ontario. Cruz is active on multiple projects in two countries and has enough cash on hand to undertake all its planned work programs, all of this at a time when the global focus on cobalt and all factors regarding the Electric Car sector is gaining momentum. Earlier this month, the price of cobalt traded to $28.35, a new 9-year high as many countries, including China, are making comments about going only electric and banning all gas vehicles."
