TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / April 22, 2024 / Electric Metals (USA) Limited ("EML" or the "Company") (TSXV:EML)(OTCQB:EMUSF) is pleased to provide a review and progress report on the manganese metallurgical test work with Kemetco Research Inc., of Richmond, BC, Canada, from samples obtained from the Company's Emily manganese deposit, located in central Minnesota. Kemetco is one the leading metallurgical firms specializing in the extraction and processing of manganese ores and compounds worldwide.
安大略省多倫多/ACCESSWIRE/2024年4月22日/電氣金屬（美國）有限公司（“EML” 或 “公司”）（多倫多證券交易所股票代碼：EML）（OTCQB: EMUSF）很高興根據該公司位於明尼蘇達州中部的艾米麗錳礦牀採集的樣本，提供有關加拿大不列顛哥倫比亞省里士滿市Kemetco Research Inc.的錳冶金測試工作的審查和進展報告。Kemetco 是全球領先的冶金公司之一，專門從事錳礦石和化合物的開採和加工。
As reported in the 2022 NI 43-101, Kemetco was commissioned in 2013 to undertake parametric leach tests on Emily manganese ore to provide an initial determination of leaching conditions and the ultimate manganese recovery potential. Using a leaching protocol that utilizes SO2 as a reducing agent, Kemetco demonstrated that more than 80% of the manganese could be recovered from the feed without requiring pre-concentration. Kemetco also performed a larger batch leach and used the purified leach solution in laboratory-scale electrowinning to produce of chemical grade manganese dioxide (MnO2), electrolytic manganese metal (EMM) and chemical grade manganese carbonate (MnCO3).
正如2022年NI 43-101報告所報道的那樣，Kemetco於2013年受委託對艾米麗錳礦石進行參數浸出試驗，以初步確定浸出條件和最終的錳回收潛力。使用利用 SO 的浸出協議2 作爲還原劑，Kemetco證明，無需預先濃縮即可從飼料中回收80％以上的錳。Kemetco還進行了更大批量的浸出，並在實驗室規模的電解沉積中使用純化的浸出溶液來生產化學級二氧化錳（MnO）。2)、電解金屬錳 (EMM) 和化學級碳酸錳 (MnCo)3)。
In 2023, Electric Metals recommissioned Kemetco to continue working on the metallurgy and commercial processing. The 2023-4 metallurgical test work at Kemetco utilized two manganese composites weighing approximately 228 kilograms taken from 40 samples:
2023年，電氣金屬重新委託Kemetco繼續從事冶金和商業加工工作。Kemetco 的 2023-4 年冶金測試工作使用了從 40 個樣品中採集的兩種重約 228 千克的錳複合材料：
Higher grade whole rock composite sample (37.0% Mn, 19.03% Fe, and 4.61% SiO2), and
更高品位的全巖複合樣品（37.0% 的錳、19.03% 的鐵和 4.61% 的二氧化硅）2)，以及
Lower grade whole rock composite sample (15.57% Mn, 20.61% Fe, and 38.45% SiO2)
低等級全巖複合樣品（15.57% 錳、20.61% 鐵和 38.45% 二氧化硅）2)
The leach optimization tests are leveraging off of the earlier studies and have been conducted to determine appropriate conditions and likely leach yields. The acid leach tests indicate that high manganese extractions recovered more than 90% manganese using a reductant. The metallurgical test work is ongoing with expectations of developing a viable process flowsheet for the project in the coming months. Future work will focus on the optimization of the proposed approaches.
浸出物優化測試利用了早期的研究，旨在確定適當的條件和可能的浸出產量。酸浸測試表明，高錳提取物使用還原劑回收了90％以上的錳。冶金測試工作正在進行中，預計將在未來幾個月內爲該項目制定出可行的工藝流程。未來的工作將側重於對擬議方法進行優化。
This work has been conducted to determine what products can be economically produced from Emily ore, including High Purity Manganese Sulphate Monohydrate (HPMSM) which is essential and a major component to electric vehicle (EV) batteries, rechargeable batteries, and other emerging energy storage applications.
這項工作旨在確定哪些產品可以經濟地從艾米麗礦石中生產，包括高純度硫酸錳一水合物（HPMSM），它是電動汽車（EV）電池、可充電電池和其他新興儲能應用的重要組成部分。
Brian Savage, CEO, Electric Metals, commented "we are very pleased to be working with Kemetco, a renowned metallurgical laboratory, to advance the Emily manganese deposit metallurgical test work. Our focus is on producing HPMSM, crucial for the EV battery sector, and other high-value manganese chemicals. We look forward to continued positive results".
電氣金屬首席執行官布萊恩·薩維奇評論說：“我們很高興與著名的冶金實驗室Kemetco合作，推進艾米麗錳礦牀冶金測試工作。我們的重點是生產對電動汽車電池行業至關重要的HPMSM和其他高價值錳化學品。我們期待持續取得積極成果”。

About Electric Metals (USA) Limited
關於電氣金屬（美國）有限公司
Electric Metals (USA) Limited (TSXV:EML)(OTCQB:EMUSF) is a U.S.-based mineral development company with manganese and silver projects geared to supporting the transition to clean energy. The Company's principal asset is the Emily Manganese Project in Minnesota, which has been the subject of considerable technical studies, including a National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report - Resource Estimate, with over US$26 million invested to date. The Company's mission in Minnesota is to become a domestic U.S. producer of high purity, high value manganese metal and chemical products for supply to U.S. energy, technology and industrial markets. With manganese playing a critical and prominent role in lithium-ion battery formulations, and with no current domestic supply or active mines for manganese in North America, the development of the Emily Manganese Project represents a significant opportunity for America, the State of Minnesota and for the Company's shareholders.
電氣金屬（美國）有限公司（多倫多證券交易所股票代碼：EML）（OTCQB: EMUSF）是一家總部位於美國的礦產開發公司，其錳和白銀項目旨在支持向清潔能源的過渡。該公司的主要資產是明尼蘇達州的艾米麗錳項目，該項目一直是大量技術研究的主題，包括國家儀器43-101技術報告——資源估算，迄今已投資超過2600萬美元。該公司在明尼蘇達州的使命是成爲美國本土的高純度、高價值金屬錳和化學產品的生產商，供應給美國能源、技術和工業市場。由於錳在鋰離子電池配方中起着至關重要的作用，而且北美目前沒有國內錳供應或活躍的礦山，艾米麗錳項目的開發對美國、明尼蘇達州和公司股東來說都是一個重大機遇。
