Manganese X Energy Metallurgical Update and Potent ial Metallurgical Project Collaboration with the
National Research Council Canada
April 11, 2017: Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Manganese X Energy Corp. (the “ Company”) (TSX-V: MN) (FSE:
9SC2)(TRADEGATE:9SC2)(OTC PINK: SNCGF) has received preliminary results from SGS-Lakefield of
chemical analyses, mineralogical characterizations and assessments of the Co mpany's Sharpe Farm and Moody Hill
occurrences at its manganese property near Houlton-Woodstock, New Brunswick. Based on the initial drill assay
results, chemical analyses showed manganese contents of 9.42 and 10.45% Mn in the Red and Grey composites
respectively. From the X-ray diffraction and Qemscan (Q uantitative Evaluation of Materials by Scanning Electron
Microscopy) studies it was determined that the manganese occurs in several mineralogical forms including
carbonates and silicates where the co ncentration across the various manganese-bearing species averaged 23% Mn
(grey) and 27% Mn (red) with individual values of up to 45% Mn. In addition to the determination of the
mineralogical composition of the samples submitted, PMA or particle map analysis was also carried out which
permits measurement of individual mineral grain sizes an d liberation characteristics. This information will prove
invaluable as the Company moves towards assessing proposal s from various research establishments with the goal
of upgrading the ore to produce a marketable manganese concentrate.
In addition to a series of outreach proposals to co mmercial laboratories, the Co mpany has also commenced
discussions for a potential collaboration with NRC, the Na tional Research Council Canada, which has expertise in
mineral processing within the Energy, Mining and Environment sector and could offer assistance to the Company as
it positions itself to be a significant supplier to the North American Li-ion market.
