Patriot Battery Metals (ASX:PMT) has appointed Aline Côte to its board of directors, effective immediately, as part of the company’s broader strategy to reinforce its alignment with Québec’s role in the critical minerals value chain.
Côte has more than 27 years of international experience spanning exploration, technical services, and operational leadership. She began her career at Noranda and held progressively senior roles at Xstrata and Glencore (LON:GLEN).
Patriot Battery says Côte brings deep operational expertise, strategic leadership, and firsthand experience managing large-scale, capital-intensive mining operations across multiple jurisdictions.
Chairman Pierre Boivin says Côte is a highly respected executive in the mining sector and a strong addition to the board.
“Based in Québec and widely recognised across the global mining industry, she brings an exceptional combination of technical depth, operational leadership, and strategic perspective,” Boivin says.
Patriot Battery Metals is a hard-rock lithium explorer focused on advancing its wholly owned Shaakichiuwaanaan Project in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Québec, Canada.
