In this episode we have a returning guest who appeared back in March 2021 (Episode 122). Bernard Aylward is the CEO of Kodal Minerals, a junior explorer with a primary focus on the immediate exploration and definition of the lithium mineralisation at the Bougouni Project in southern Mali. The company also holds a highly prospective suite of gold assets in West Africa.

Bernard has over 30 years’ experience as a geologist in the mining and exploration in a variety of commodities in Australia, Europe, South America and in West Africa and going to give us an update on Kodal Minerals, what the future holds for them and an overview of the Lithium market, present and future.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
With the end of the COVID lockdowns and the settling of the pandemic in general, the world of mining is looking forward to a more optimistic era.
Kodal's priority is to develop their lithium project as quickly as possible. Drilling and acquisition began in 2016 and they are on track to keep the rhythm going.
Kodals; rapid turnaround means that they will hit the ground running in 2023, with a product that is in extraordinarily high demand.
The pressure on groups trying to acquire product is very high right now. The market actually rises rises to what the auction price tends to be.

BEST MOMENTS

'A very fast turnaround from a project that had no previous drilling'

'We think we can be up and running from securing finance. No later than 15 months'

'We see this as a great entry point'

'We are in a positive pricing environment'
