EMERGENT METALS FURTHER EXPANDS ITS
NEW YORK CANYON PROJECT
Vancouver, British Columbia – February 21, 2024 -- Emergent Metals Corp. ("Emergent" or the
“Company”) (TSX Venture Exchange: EMR) announces that it has further expanded its New York
Canyon Property (“New York Canyon” or the “Property” in Nevada by acquiring 6 unpatented lode claims
(the “Yorkie Claims”) from Western Geoscience Inc. (“WGI”). The Property now consists of 21 patented
claims and 792 unpatented mining claims totaling about 16,000 acres (6,500 hectares). Located about 30
miles (48 kilometers) east of Hawthorne, New York Canyon hosts copper skarn and porphyry exploration
targets including Longshot Ridge, Copper Queen, Champion, and Emma.
Emergent has acquired the claims for US$66,000 ($US$12,000 paid to WGI with six additional monthly
payments of US$9,000 due February 15, 2024 (paid) and continuing through July 15, 2024). In addition,
Emergent will grant WGI a 2% Net Smelter Royalty (“NSR”) on the claims capped at US$1,750,000.
David Watkinson, President and CEO of Emergent stated, “ Addition of the Yorkie Claims finalizes the
consolidation of a major land position at the New York Canyon Property, hosting multiple copper
exploration targets with a very low acquisition cost . The Yorkie Claims are just south of Lahontan Gold
Corporation’s (TSXV: LG) Santa Fe Project, which hosts the past producing Santa Fe Gold Mine. The
Yorkie claims also have potential to host gold mineralization as well as base metals.”
About Emergent
Emergent is a gold and base metal exploration company focused on Nevada and Quebec. The Company’s
strategy is to look for quality acquisitions, add value to these assets through exploration, and monetize them
through sale, joint ventures, option, royalty, and other transactions to create value for our shareholders (an
acquisition and divestiture business model).
In Nevada, Emergent’s Golden Arrow Property is an advanced stage property with a well-defined measured
and indicated gold and silver resource. The New York Canyon Property is a copper skarn, copper porphyry,
and gold exploration property south of and abutting the past producing Santa Fe Gold Mine. The Mindora
Property (aka West Santa Fe Property) is a gold, silver, and base metal property located twelve miles from
the Santa Fe Gold Mine and optioned to Lahontan Gold Corporation (TSXV:LG). Buckskin Rawhide East
is a gold and silver property leased to Rawhide Mining LLC, operators of the Rawhide Mine. Emergent
also owns the Buckskin Rawhide West and Koegel Rawhide properties, two early -stage gold and silver
projects located near Rawhide Mine.
In Quebec, the Casa South Property is a large gold exploration property adjacent to and south of Hecla
Mining Corporation’s (NYSE:HL) operating Casa Berardi Mine with multiple exploration targets
identified. The Trecesson Property, located about 50 km north of the Val d’Or mining camp, has three gold
exploration targets with multiple high-grade (>10 g/t) gold intercepts from historic and recent drilling. Also
in Quebec, Emergent has a 1% NSR in the Troilus North Property, part of the feasibility stage Troilus Mine
- 2 -
Property being explored by Troilus Gold. Emergent also has a 1% NSR in the East-West Property, owned
by O3 Mining and part of their feasibility stage Marban Alliance Property.
Note that the location of Emergent’s properties adjacent to producing or past producing mines does not
guarantee exploration success at Emergent’s properties or that mineral resources or reserves will be
delineated. For more information on the Company, investors should review the Company’s website at
