Episode 189: First Cobalt CEO Trent Mell on EVs, cobalt demand and working with Glencore

This episode features First Cobalt CEO Trent Mell in conversation with Northern Miner group publisher Anthony Vaccaro at The Northern Miner Scotch Whisky Tasting event held on Zoom. Trent discusses how there will be an 'avalanche' of demand for cobalt from the electric vehicle market, and what it's like to work with Glencore at First Cobalt's cobalt refinery in northern Ontario. He also discussed how there will be a 'tsunami' of electric vehicle selection available to consumers in the near future. All this and more with online editor Adrian Pocobelli.
