MANGANESE X ENERGY COMMENDS NEW BRUNSWICK’S
VISION FOR COMPREHENSIVE MINERALS’ STRATEGY
Montreal, Quebec – November 6, 2025 – Manganese X Energy Corp. (TSXV: MN) (FSE: 9SC)
(TRADEGATE: 9SC) (OTCQB: MNXXF) is pleased to commend the Government of New
Brunswick for advancing a comprehensive framework designed to strengthen and expand the
province’s mining and critical minerals sector.
At the 50th Annual Exploration, Mining and Petroleum (EMP) Conference, held in Fredericton,
New Brunswick, from October 26 –28, The Honourable Susan Holt, Premier of New Brunswick ,
and The Honourable John Herron, Minister of Natural Resources, unveiled the Province’s
Comprehensive Minerals Strategy Framework . The initiative lays the foundation for New
Brunswick’s full Minerals Strategy, expected to be finalized by Spring 2026, with a focus on
transparency, environmental responsibility, and collaboration with First Nations, stakeholders, and
industry.
“The Government of New Brunswick’s framework demonstrates strong leadership and vision,”
said Martin Kepman, CEO of Manganese X Energy Corp . “As a New Brunswick –based critical
minerals company, we fully support this modern, transparent, and environmentally responsible
approach—one that balances investment, sustainability, and meaningful Indigenous participation.”
Manganese X Energy Corp., a proud sponsor of the event, was represented by Chairman Roger
Dahn, Director Des Tranquilla, and VP Exploration Perry MacKinnon, who presented an update
on the Company’s Battery Hill High-Purity Manganese (HPMSM) Project.
The provincial framework highlights five key priorities:
• Streamlining regulatory and permitting processes
• Raising public and industry awareness
• Ensuring meaningful Indigenous participation
• Enhancing the investment climate
• Maximizing local economic benefits
“Manganese X’s vision aligns closely with the province’s priorities,” added Kepman . “This
framework helps position New Brunswick as a leader in responsible mineral development —
creating lasting opportunities for communities, investors, and all New Brunswick stakeholders.”
Following the successful completion of its pilot program with Kemetco, Manganese X Energy
advanced additional optimization test work using higher-grade material produced through the
recent ore -sorting program. These laboratory -scale studies focused on refi ning leach
performance, acid consumption, and manganese recovery, providing important data in order to
support starting the upcoming Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS)—a key milestone toward demonstrating
the economic viability of the Battery Hill HPMSM Project.
This next phase will further define the project’s development path as the Company continues to
advance Canada’s clean-energy transition, supplying a crucial component for the North American
electric-vehicle and energy-storage sectors.
