Why scandium?
Because of its unique properties, it is considered the metal of the future. When added in small amounts to aluminum, scandium creates alloys that are lightweight, high-strength, and corrosion-resistant, while also offering excellent electrical and thermal conductivity.
The Company has developed two Al-Sc alloys and their powders, (A535 & AA7075) designed specifically for additive manufacturing (3D printing) leading to the filing of a provisional patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The application, entitled “Aluminum alloy powders for additive manufacturing. Methods of producing the same and uses thereof”, represents a major breakthrough in the field of high-performance materials.
This is why scandium finds its best applications in high-tech sectors such as aerospace, automotive, aeronautics, and additive manufacturing (3D printing). It is also used as an electrolyte in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC), as well as in the production of ceramics, electronics, and metal-halide lamps.

“CRATER LAKE: THE MOST EXCITING HARD-ROCK SCANDIUM PROJECT IN THE WORLD”
– Dr. Anthony Williams-Jones,
Professor in the Earth Science department at McGill University
Scandium Canada Ltd. is currently developing one of the world’s largest primary sources of scandium, with the aim of contributing to global efforts toward reducing carbon emissions.
The company is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX-V: SCD), has completed a PEA in 2022, has a current mineral resource estimate (2025) and is moving forward with the preparation of a pre-feasibility study for the project.
Located in Nunavik, Quebec, the Crater Lake project covers an area of 47 km², including the TG Zone, which extends over 4.5 km² and is one of five mineralized zones identified on the property. In 2022, the company completed a preliminary economic assesment and is currently progressing towards a pre-feasibility study expected in June 2026.
The province of Quebec is a respected mining jurisdiction that values environmental stewardship and the well-being of local and First Nations communities. Scandium Canada’s flagship Crater Lake project is located 200 km northeast of Schefferville, within a region that includes the commun interest territories of the Naskapi First Nation and Inuit. Scandium Canada common recognizes that the First Nations communities and the Innus commitees on the territory have aboriginal and treaty rights.
