EMP METALS ACQUIRES THIRD WELLBORE AT MANSUR FOR
LITHIUM TESTING
Vancouver, British Columbia, November 30th, 2022 – EMP Metals Corp. (CSE:
EMPS)(OTC: EMPPF) (“EMP Metals” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that Hub
City Lithium Corp. (“HCL”), a subsidiary company to EMP, has acquired an additional wellbore
in its Mansur Permit Area.
The new well, 141/08-03-009-13 W2M (“Third Test Well”), is located at the Mansur Permit
Area of southeast Saskatchewan and is approximately half a mile from the Company’s first test
well in the Mansur which confirmed concentrations of up to 96.3 mg/l in the Duperow zone and
approximately one and a half miles from the second test well for which results are pending (please
see press release dated October 31, 2022). The Third Test Well has been acquired for no
consideration and the assumption of future abandonment and reclamation costs.
It is anticipated that a multi-zone perf test will be performed on the Third Test Well, testing the
inflow potential and lithium concentrations in the target Duperow zone.
Rob Gamley, CEO of EMP, commented, “As we eagerly await testing results from our second
test well at Mansur, acquiring this Third Test Well aligns with our Company’s cost-effective
strategy of testing for lithium in existing infrastructure and advancing our project. Mr. Gamley
continued, “We firmly believe we are at the right time and the right place with the need to create
domestic lithium supply and the Government of Saskatchewan’s recent announcement to expand
both the Oil and Gas Processing Investment Incentive (OGPII) and the Saskatchewan Petroleum
Innovation Incentive (SPII) programs to allow eligible lithium projects to be included.”1
The Mansur Permit Area has existing infrastructure with greater than fifty 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.
The Mansur Permit Area, Tyvan Permit Area, and Viewfield Permit Area 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.
