development of our Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) amenable assets in mining and business
friendly Saskatchewan allows for significant value generative opportunities for the Company and
its stakeholders.” Mr. Gamley added, “Our confidence in the long-term outlook for developing
the domestic lithium supply chain remains intact, most recently with agreements from two
German automakers supporting significant potential for Canada’s battery minerals sector.1 EMP
aims to play a key role in managing supply chain risks for lithium thereby facilitating the clean
energy transition.”
