MANGANESE X ENERGY UPDATE: ULTRA-PURE MANGANESE SULFATE METALLURGICAL PROJECT

Manganese X Energy Corp. has received an encouraging progress report from Kemetco Research Inc. Kemetco is working to develop a commercializable flow sheet to produce a battery-grade manganese product for the growing electric vehicle and energy storage industries using the safe and sustainable North America mineralization at the company’s Battery Hill property located in Woodstock, N.B.

Kemetco reported that it has achieved an MnSO4 (manganese sulphate) purity of greater than 99.8 per cent with low contamination factors in the final manganese sulphate product, which is required by the EV (electric vehicle) and backup storage industries.

Assay tests are currently being performed by Kemetco to confirm the required commercial specifications of impurities. Also additional upgrading techniques and approaches are being aggressively pursued.

The company along with Kemetco is very pleased with the progress of the ultrapure manganese sulphate metallurgical project. The company looks forward to finalizing the flow sheet and advancing the project to the next phase, where bulk samples could be produced for independent assessments. Updates will follow.
