Ontario Cobalt Properties:
Fuse owns a 100% interest its Glencore Bucke Property, situated in Bucke Township, 6 km east-
northeast of Cobalt, Ontario, subject to a back-in provision, production royalty and off-take
agreement. The Glencore Bucke Property consists of 16.2 hectares and sits along the west boundary
of Fuse’s Teledyne Cobalt Project. The Company also owns a 100% interest, subject to a royalty, in
the Teledyne Project located near Cobalt, Ontario. The Teledyne Property adjoins the south and west
boundaries of claims that hosted the Agaunico Mine.
Glencore Bucke/Teledyne Property
Situated in Bucke Township, 6 km east-northeast of Cobalt, Ontario the Glencore Bucke Property
adjoins, on its northeast corner, the former cobalt producing Agaunico Mine. From 1905 through to
1961, the Agaunico Mine produced a total of 4,350,000 lbs. of cobalt (“Co”), and 980,000 oz of silver
(“Ag”) (Cunningham-Dunlop, 1979). The amount of cobalt produced from the Agaunico Mine is
greater than that of any other mine in the Cobalt Mining Camp. Production ceased in 1961 due
to depressed Co prices and over-supply (Thomson, 1964). The Glencore property is 100% owned by
Fuse Cobalt subject to a back-in provision, production royalty and off-take agreement.
Cobalt mineralization consisted of cobaltite and smaltite hosted within steeply dipping veins and
extensive disseminations within Huronian sedimentary rocks. From 1951 through to 1957, the
average cobalt content of the mineralized material mined at the Agaunico Mine was approximately
0.5%. In 1955, 526,000 lbs. of Co, 146,000 oz of Ag, 117,000 lbs. of nickel, and 81,000 lbs. of copper
were recovered from 62,000 tons of ore (Cunningham-Dunlop, 1979).
The associated Teledyne Property, located in Bucke and Lorrain Townships, consists of 5 patented
mining claims totaling 79.1 ha, and 46 unpatented mining claim cells totaling approximately 700 ha.
The Property is easily accessible by highway 567 and a well-maintained secondary road.
Over $25 million Can has been spent thus far, (2020 dollars inflation-adjusted) on the Teledyne
Property resulting in valuable infrastructure including a development ramp and a modern decline
going down 500 ft parallel to the main cobalt mineralized vein. The Teledyne Property is subject to a
production royalty in favor of New Found Gold and an off-take agreement in favor of Glencore Canada
Corp., while the Glencore Bucke Property is subject to a back-in provision, production royalty, and an
off-take agreement in favor of Glencore Canada Corp. Glencore PLC is the world’s largest producer of
cobalt. A significant portion of the cobalt that was produced at the Agaunico Mine was located
along structures (Vein #15) that extended southward towards the northern boundary of the
Teledyne Cobalt Property, currently 100% owned by FUSE. Mineralization was generally located
within 125 ft (38.1 m) above the Huronian/Archean unconformity. Stoping widths of up to 50 ft (15.2
m) were not unusual at the Agaunico Mine (Cunningham-Dunlop, 1979).
