Overview[edit]
Vision Lithium (OTC: ABEPF, TSXV: VLI), formerly known as ABE Resources Inc, is a mineral exploration company that explores and evaluates mineral resources in parts of Québec, Canada. Vision Lithium was incorporated in 1997 and is headquartered in Val-d'Or, Canada, with a vision of constantly building a portfolio of projects to explore several mines in order to find Lithium, gold, copper, zinc, and other precious materials. Vision Lithium also owns several properties. However, their flagship property covers an area of over 5,560 hectares on the bank of Gods River, Manitoba. Other major projects include Cadillac and Sirmac, which are two major Lithium producing projects of the company and Vision Lithium holds 100% ownership in all of them. Other upcoming projects include Dome Lemieux and Red Brook, which produces copper, Zinc and Silver as a commodity.[1]
Given the massive demand for lithium ions for the production of electric car batteries, Vision Lithium's objective is to develop a low-cost, fully integrated Sirmac lithium property and the Dôme Lemieux copper property. These minerals can be used to produce highly scalable batteries and have huge economic potential for the province of Québec.[2]
