Why Is The “Everything Metal” Up 500%?

• The Most Important Substance in America?
• The Next Supply Crisis
• The Company Which Could Help America In A Trade War

You likely don’t know the “Everything” metal by name.
But you’re affected by it every day.
Right now, rough calculations show this metal forms a web of connection, linked to over $300 billion worth of products.
Even the food you eat… the tires on your car… the car itself…
We’re not talking lithium, or steel, copper, gold…
These are not the “Everything” metal.
On the contrary, this metal only makes each of them stronger.
Adding just a tiny amount of this “Everything” metal to a metric ton of molten steel dramatically increases the tensile strength of that steel.
It’s why 45% of automobiles in production have “The Everything Metal” in them – and why it’s estimated that number will climb to 85% by 2025.
The “Everything” metal is even key to creating sulfuric acid…
The very same sulfuric acid our farmers need to make fertilizer for growing crops.
Here’s a good idea of a fraction of the industries, products, and goods the “Everything” metal can be found in…

Look there and you can see infrastructure like skyscrapers… homes… jet engines… and more…
All of it requires “The Everything Metal.”
And as society continues to accelerate, the need for it will only grow.
In fact, that’s why the price for a pound of this metal has increased 500% in just three years.
The Everything Metal has become such a crucial part of the American economy – President Trump named it in an executive order as one of the 35 most important resources for national growth and security.
However, there’s one problem… and one company may be able to solve it, reaping a windfall.
The Secret Resource War

You see, while this ‘Everything Metal’ is an essential part of the American economy… China and Russia control about 70% of world production.
And last year, China scaled back its exports dramatically – which helped lead the explosion in the price of this metal.
To make matters worse, America currently produces none.
Think about that.
One resource, tied to more than $300 billion in economic activity.
One of the most important resources – by the president’s acknowledgement – for the growth of the United States.
And the country doesn’t produce any.
And, the price crunch may soon get a lot worse.
For United Battery Metals (CSE:UBM), the timing couldn’t be better.
The “Everything Metal” Will Soon Dethrone Lithium
As The World’s #1 Battery Metal

Battery tech is poised to transform the electricity industry. In the U.S. alone, energy storage will grow 6x, from 120 megawatts to over 720 megawatts by 2020.
Globally, it will bring power for the first time to over a billion people by letting them tap into micro-grids. And, while lithium is the key battery metal of today…
The “Everything Metal” represents the true future of American energy.
BBC Magazine says it will “soon be powering your neighborhood.”
Former US President as the key to generating 80% of the nation’s electricity from renewable sources by the year 2035.
The little known metal I’m talking about… this alloy that is in cars, used for generating fertilizer, building jet engines…
The metal at the core of over $300 billion in economy activity…
Is called vanadium.
Thanks to the VRF battery – it’s set to take the energy world by storm.

These game changing batteries are non-flammable and non-explosive. Unlike short lived lithium ion batteries, their battery life is almost infinitely long.
Bloomberg New Energy Finance says the average cost of a lithium-ion based storage system is $1,750 a kilowatt hour.
Vanadium batteries already provide complete energy storage systems for $500 per kilowatt hour, a figure that some expect to fall below $300 per kilowatt hour in less than a year.
Companies like CellCube are already building out the infrastructure with 130 installed VRF battery facilities. They may soon be in every electric car charging station.
Then there’s – the legendary mining magnate – has said “we believe there is a revolution coming in vanadium” thanks to this technology.

He’s building a 3-megawatt (MW), 12-megawatt-hour (MWh) vanadium flow battery in China as part of Phase 1 of a 10-MW, 40-MWh demonstration project.
The goal is for this to become an energy powerhouse behind a province in the short term – and for the success of the project to lead to installations across the country.
It can only mean one thing:
This Isn’t Just Another Commodity Play,
It’s A National Security Crisis

Without vanadium, the U.S. economy could soon be in dire straits..
Which is a big problem because…
None of it is produced in the United States.
The big three producers are Russia, China and South Africa. Over 70% of global production is controlled by America’s rivals in Moscow and Beijing.
As the multi-front trade war escalates – it’s increasingly likely China may retaliate by restricting or even banning the export of strategic minerals.
United Battery Metals Corp (CSE:UBM) Owns One Of
The Largest Viable Vanadium Assets In The United States.

The company owns the Wray Mesa Project – located in Montrose County, Colorado.
It consists of over 39 contiguous mining claims for a total size of about 800 acres.

Drill exploration started in the late 1940’s with the U.S. Geological Survey, then continued from the 1960’s through the 1980’s with the private sector.
For nearly a decade, the property hosted a producing uranium mine.
Over 739 historical drill holes have been punched across all 39 claims – at a cost that would exceed $30 million today. UBM inherited this exploration windfall.
The company now has an NI-43-101 on the property.
This resource is the starting point for UBM’s ultimate potential.
They’re already initiating a $300,000 Phase I drill campaign.
It’s to firm up their numbers near the surface.
United Battery Metals Has
An Exploration “Ace” In The Hole

Mineral exploration is a challenging proposition. Luckily, United Battery Metals Corp (CSE:UBM) has a secret weapon on their board of directors.
Chief Exploration Advisor – Eric Saderholm
Mr. Saderholm is a professional Geologist who previously worked as Newmont Mining’s Exploration Manager for the entire Western United states.
He has almost 3 decades of experience in the industry with leadership in exploration, project development, property management and mining.
His resume includes large projects at Bingham Canyon, Carlin, Midas, Gold Quarry, Twin Creeks, Lonetree, Mule Canyon, Black Pine, Genesis and Yanacocha.
Over his career, he’s been integral to geologic teams that added millions of ounces of gold to reserve bases in Nevada, Washington and Peru.
With UBM his mission is to help dramatically expand the resource at Wray Mesa.
And, with the a huge plot of land right in the heart of America’s new vanadium belt – he’ll be working what could end of being one of the richest exploration plays on Earth.
As America moves to secure domestic vanadium supplies in an escalating trade war, United Battery Metals Corp (CSE:UBM) finds itself in a choice position.
Remember… Vanadium – the Everything Metal – is at the center of major industry.
At least $300 billion is estimated to be connected to it – as we speak.
When the energy war continues and the price of this resource continues to sore, is the most likely to come out on top.
