Electric Royalties Provides Six Updates on Its Nickel, Graphite, Lithium, and Manganese Royalties
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 29, 2024 / Electric Royalties Ltd. (TSXV:ELEC)(OTCQB:ELECF) ("Electric Royalties" or the "Company") is pleased to provide the following update on its royalty portfolio.
不列顛哥倫比亞省溫哥華/ACCESSWIRE/2024年2月29日/電氣特許權使用費有限公司（多倫多證券交易所股票代碼：ELEC）（OTCQB: ELECF）（“電氣特許權使用費” 或 “公司”）很高興提供其特許權使用費組合的以下最新情況。
Brendan Yurik, CEO of Electric Royalties, commented: "Despite softer commodity markets, we're still bullish on clean energy metal demand fundamentals and believe that governments will increasingly prioritize domestic sources of these critical metals. This is particularly true for North America, Europe, and Australia, where the vast majority of our royalty interests lie and where continued progress continues to be made across the portfolio.
Electric Royalties首席執行官布倫丹·尤里克評論說：“儘管大宗商品市場疲軟，但我們仍然看好清潔能源金屬需求基本面，並認爲政府將越來越多地優先考慮這些關鍵金屬的國內來源。對於北美、歐洲和澳大利亞來說尤其如此，我們的絕大多數特許權使用費權益都在那裏，投資組合繼續取得進展。
"Seymour Lake has the potential to be the first lithium producer in Ontario, with a feasibility study slated for completion later this year and potential commencement of production in two years. It is the most advanced lithium project in Ontario, with an offtake agreement with South Korean battery maker LG Energy Solution to acquire 25% of the concentrate produced from Seymour Lake's first five years of production.
“西摩湖有可能成爲安大略省的第一家鋰生產商，可行性研究定於今年晚些時候完成，並有可能在兩年後開始生產。這是安大略省最先進的鋰項目，與韓國電池製造商LG Energy Solution簽訂了承購協議，收購西摩湖前五年生產的精礦的25％。
"The potential addition of manganese to Canada's list of prioritized critical minerals for federal support is overdue and could be a boon for the Battery Hill project - one of the very few manganese projects in North America suitable for battery production and the most advanced from a metallurgical standpoint.
“早就應該在加拿大優先考慮的關鍵礦物清單中增加錳以獲得聯邦支持，這可能會爲Battery Hill項目帶來福音。Battery Hill項目是北美爲數不多的適合電池生產的錳項目之一，從冶金的角度來看也是最先進的項目。
"Råna's regional exploration is advancing steadily, with Kingrose Mining's support to carry on exploring the project. All of these positive developments and more below, as always, come at no cost to Electric Royalties. We are pleased to see our portfolio of 22 royalties increasingly weighted towards advanced development and production."
“在金羅斯礦業的支持下，RaNA的區域勘探正在穩步推進，繼續勘探該項目。與往常一樣，所有這些積極的進展以及以下更多進展都無需支付電氣特許權使用費。我們很高興看到我們的22份特許權使用費組合越來越多地用於先進的開發和生產。”
Highlights since the Company's previous update on January 24, 2024:
自公司上次於2024年1月24日發佈最新情況以來的亮點：
| ● |
Råna Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project (1.0% Net Smelter Royalty) - On February 5, 2024, Global Energy Metals Corporation (TSXV: GEMC) ("Global Energy Metals") and its strategic partner, Kingsrose Mining Limited (ASX: KRM) ("Kingsrose"), announced analytical results from drill holes at the Bruvann, Rånbogen, and Malmhaugen prospects at the Råna Project in Norway. New zones of nickel sulphide mineralization have been discovered, some in areas previously considered unprospective. Several priority conductive geophysical anomalies remain to be drilled in 2024, and continued electromagnetic geophysical surveys are planned to generate additional targets within the large and underexplored Råna intrusion. Electric Royalties is relying on the information provided by Global Energy Metals and is unable to verify the reported drill data. |

Rana鎳銅鈷項目（淨冶煉廠特許權使用費爲1.0％）——2024年2月5日，全球能源金屬公司（TSXV：GEMC）（“全球能源金屬”）及其戰略合作伙伴金斯羅斯礦業有限公司（澳大利亞證券交易所股票代碼：KRM）（“金斯羅斯”）在展望區公佈了布魯文、RANBOGEN和Malmhaugen鑽孔的分析結果挪威的 Rana 項目。 已經發現了新的硫化鎳礦化區域，其中一些位於以前被認爲不具前景的地區。2024年仍有幾個優先的傳導性地球物理異常有待鑽探，並計劃繼續進行電磁地球物理調查，以便在尚未開發的大型RaNA入侵體內生成更多目標。 電力特許權使用費依賴全球能源金屬公司提供的信息，無法驗證報告的鑽探數據。 |
| ● |
Chubb Lithium Project (2.0% Gross Metal Royalty) - On February 7, 2024, Burley Minerals Ltd. (ASX: BUR) ("Burley") announced drill results from the Chubb Project in Québec, Canada. Assay results from holes drilled at the Main Dyke within the Chubb Central Mineralized Zone demonstrated that spodumene mineralization exceeds a strike length of 600 meters and remains open down plunge. Additionally, one hole intersected cesium-bearing mineral pollucite in the Main Dyke, indicating an evolved lithium-cesium-tantalum pegmatite system which has the potential to add significant value to the project, according to Burley. Electric Royalties is relying on the information provided by Burley and is unable to verify the reported drill results. |

安達鋰業項目（金屬特許權使用費總額2.0％）——2024年2月7日，伯利礦業有限公司（澳大利亞證券交易所股票代碼：BUR）（“Burley”）公佈了加拿大魁北克安達項目的鑽探結果。 在Chubb中央礦化區內的主堤上鑽孔的化驗結果表明，鋰輝石礦化區超過了600米的走向長度，並且一直處於露天狀態。此外，根據伯利的說法，一個孔與主堤中含銫的礦物污染石相交，這表明正在演變的鋰-銫-鉭偉晶岩系統有可能爲該項目增加重大價值。 電力特許權使用費依賴於Burley提供的信息，無法覈實報告的鑽探結果。 |
| ● |
Graphite Bull Graphite Project (0.75% Gross Revenue Royalty) - On January 25, 2024, Buxton Resources Limited (ASX: BUX) ("Buxton") announced that results from electrochemical testwork confirm that the uncoated Purified Spherical Graphite (uPSG) made from concentrate from the Graphite Bull Project in Western Australia is suitable for the manufacture of lithium-ion battery anodes, yielding above-average to good performance characteristics. A second bulk concentrate sample is currently being evaluated by Dorfner Anzaplan GmbH in Germany, with results expected from May onwards. Electric Royalties is relying on the information provided by Buxton and is unable to verify the reported testwork results. |

西摩湖鋰項目（淨冶煉廠特許權使用費爲1.5％）——2024年2月22日，綠色科技金屬有限公司（澳大利亞證券交易所股票代碼：GT1）（“綠色科技金屬”）提供了加拿大安大略省西摩湖項目的戰略最新情況。Green Technology Metals表示，今年的重點是推動西摩湖投入生產，重點是做出最終的投資決定，獲得所有必要的施工許可，並參與旨在確保項目資金的政府和戰略舉措。這些工作流程被視爲預算 “輕型” 活動，無需大量支出即可推進。 綠色科技金屬計劃更新西摩湖的礦產資源估計，以納入即將到來的可行性研究，該研究預計將於2024年下半年完成。 |
| ● | Battery Hill Manganese Project (2.0% Gross Metal Royalty) - On February 1, 2024, Manganese X Energy Corp. (TSXV: MN) ("Manganese X") announced it is advocating for the Canadian government to include manganese in its prioritized Critical Mineral List, which currently includes lithium, graphite, nickel, cobalt, copper and rare earth minerals. The prioritized minerals represent the greatest opportunity to fuel domestic manufacturing and will be the initial focus of federal investments. Manganese X is the operator of the Battery Hill Project in New Brunswick, Canada, one of the largest manganese carbonate deposits in North America which has the potential to be a substantial contributor to the supply chain of high-purity manganese, essential to support the EV and energy storage industries1. |
| ● | Battery Hill錳礦項目（金屬特許權使用費總額2.0％）——2024年2月1日，Manganese X Energy Corp.（多倫多證券交易所股票代碼：MN）（“Manganese X”）宣佈，它倡導加拿大政府將錳列入其優先關鍵礦物清單，該清單目前包括鋰、石墨、鎳、鈷、銅和稀土礦物。優先礦產是推動國內製造業的最大機會，也將是聯邦投資的最初重點。Manganese X是加拿大新不倫瑞克省Battery Hill項目的運營商，該項目是北美最大的碳酸錳礦牀之一，有可能爲高純錳供應鏈做出重大貢獻，這對於支持電動汽車和儲能行業至關重要1。 |
| ● | Bissett Creek Graphite Project (1.5% Gross Revenue Royalty) - On January 31, 2024, Northern Graphite Corporation (TSXV: NGC) ("Northern Graphite"), the operator of the Bissett Creek Project in Ontario, Canada, announced the launch of the NGC Battery Materials Group to spearhead its mine-to-battery strategy, which would make Northern Graphite one of the only integrated developers, producers, and processors of natural graphite outside of China. The NGC Battery Materials Group will specialize in advanced material analytics and electrochemical characterization techniques for carbon and battery materials, and provide in-depth expertise in the field of high temperature processing, scale-up and carbon design. This will enable Northern Graphite to provide tailored solutions to EV battery makers and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to satisfy their unique battery requirements. |
| ● | Bissett Creek石墨項目（總收入特許權使用費1.5％）——2024年1月31日，加拿大安大略省比塞特溪項目的運營商北方石墨公司（TSXV：NGC）（“北方石墨”）宣佈啓動NGC電池材料集團，以領導其礦山到電池戰略，這將使北方石墨成爲中國以外唯一的天然石墨綜合開發商、生產商和加工商之一。NGC 電池材料集團將專門研究碳和電池材料的先進材料分析和電化學表徵技術，並在高溫處理、放大放大和碳設計領域提供深入的專業知識。這將使Northern Graphite能夠爲電動汽車電池製造商和原始設備製造商（OEM）提供量身定製的解決方案，以滿足其獨特的電池需求。 |
