  • Terra CO2 Technologies Provides Corporate And Operational Update

    Terra CO2 Technologies Ltd. ("Terra"), a private company that is owned 57.8% by Strategic Metals Ltd. (TSXV:SMD) ("Strategic"), is pleased to announce recent corporate developments, expanded operations and important milestones. Terra is developing Alternative Cementitious Material ("ACM") as an environmentally-sensitive alternative to Portland cement. Terra's ACM research is in the field of geopolymer cement, also known as alkali-activated materials (AAM).

    Portland cement has been at the core of modern construction for generations and is nearly a $500 billion CAD business annually. However, the cement industry is a major CO2 emitter. Production and transportation of Portland cement account for 7 to 8% of annual CO2 emissions world-wide. Terra's ACM technology has potential to replace Portland Cement, thereby reducing CO2 output by 60% or more, without compromising strength or cost.

    The Canadian Association of Secured Transportation (CAST) released the following statement in response to the continued refusal by many retailers across Canada to accept cash as a method of payment due to fears of COVID-19 transmission.

    The COVID-19 pandemic has quite rightly caused us to ramp up our hygiene and cleanliness practices; but it is important that we rely on facts, not fear, before we take measures that have serious consequences. Attempting to prevent the spread of COVID-19 with a ban on cash is a prime example, which can also have moral, societal and economic impacts. Based on the best available scientific literature, handling currency carries little risk of contracting COVID-19.
