EMP METALS COMMENCES RE-ENTRY OF SECOND WELL AT
MANSUR FOR LITHIUM TESTING
Vancouver, British Columbia, October 31st, 2022 – EMP Metals Corp. (CSE: EMPS)(OTC:
EMPPF) (“EMP” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce Hub City Lithium Corp. (“HCL”),
a subsidiary company to EMP, has now commenced the re-entry of wellbore 101/14-36-008-13
W2M (the “Second Test Well”) to test the inflow potential and lithium concentrations in the
Duperow zone. The Second Test Well is located in the Mansur Permit Area of southeast
Saskatchewan, approximately half a mile from the Company’s first test well, 11/11-02-009-
13W2/0, which confirmed lithium concentrations of up to 96.3 mg/l (see press release dated
February 2, 2022).
Rob Gamley, CEO of EMP, commented, “We are pleased to commence this second re-entry at
Mansur and believe it will be a key catalyst for EMP Metals and the expansion of our prospect.
This operation will complement our results from our first re-entry, and we are optimistic this step-
out re-entry will allow us the option to consider a Preliminary Economic Assessment.”
The Mansur Permit Area has existing infrastructure with an ample amount of oil wellbores drilled
through the target formation. This allows for potential cost savings on future development and
allows the Company to map and target certain lands with lithium potential. This existing
infrastructure is expected to lower the ultimate cost of early-stage development of the resource.
HCL licenses now collectively cover an area extending 40 miles north and 40 miles east of the
City of Weyburn. The existing oil and gas infrastructure within the area includes over a hundred
oil wells drilled through the target formation that can be used for geological mapping, future
lithium testing, and development. In addition to the existing oil field infrastructure and labour
pool, the economics of the project area are enhanced by the presence of existing infrastructure,
including but not limited to: paved highways, rail lines, existing three phase electrical supply,
and access to natural gas.
Lithium Brine Properties Joint Venture
The lithium brine properties consist of 37 permits totaling 212,633 acres (86,050 hectares) of
Subsurface Crown Mineral Dispositions in the Williston basin of Southern Saskatchewan. Brine
sampling of a vertical wellbore located on one of the properties returned lithium concentrations
in the Duperow formation up to 96.3 mg/l.
EMP holds 75% of the joint venture with ROK Resources Inc. (ROK.V) holding the balance.
