"Another company I like that's not in the gold space is Puget Ventures Inc. (TSXV:PVS). It has quite a small market cap. The company has a cobalt property that produced in the 1940s, and they still have infrastructure on site. Recently, they've raised money to go back and do some further drilling to increase their reserves and mine life. They could be back in production in a relatively short timeframe. One of the reasons I like it is that recently investors have been very interested in lithium companies and have bid up share prices of many lithium companies dramatically this year. I think Puget is another play on the same thing; Cobalt will be in increased demand for batteries as a result of the electrification of vehicles. There is actually twice as much cobalt in a lithium battery as there is lithium; and cobalt sells for roughly four times the price of lithium, so it's a similar play on the whole electric vehicle market."
