Trent Mell, President and CEO of First Cobalt Corporation Returns to “Stock Day” with Everett Jolly for an Operational Update and 2018 Forecast

PHOENIX, Feb. 01, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Uptick Newswire, a leader in international micro-cap coverage and investor communication, welcomed back Trent Mell, President and CEO of First Cobalt Corp. (TSX-V:FCC) (ASX:FCC) (OTCQB:FTSSF) (“First Cobalt” or the “Company”).

First Cobalt Corp., formed in early 2017, has been rapidly growing to accommodate increasing cobalt demand. As the only exploration and development company with its own functional refinery in North America, it is positioned well for the expected growth in the industry. First Cobalt has a highly skilled management team focused on growth of the Company, as well as increasing shareholder value.

“Cobalt is integral in much of what we use every day. Specifically, batteries – in laptops, cellphones and electronic cars – which alone consume about 50% of global cobalt production,” said Jolly. “The price of cobalt had more than doubled since 2017, a trend expected to continue.”

“Our focus as a Company and management team has allowed us to position ourselves both financially and geographically to meet climbing demand,” said Trent Mell, President and CEO. “We look forward to the coming year and the impact of the growing electronic car movement.”
