In this company update, I welcome back Paul Schubach, Chief Operating Officer of EMP Metals (CSE: EMPS – OTCQB: EMPPF), for an in-depth update on the company’s advancements in the lithium space. Operating primarily out of the high-grade Viewfield property in Saskatchewan, EMP Metals is transitioning from pilot testing to a continuous demonstration plant. 

Key Discussion Points:

• The Viewfield Advantage: Paul discusses the high-concentration nature of the Viewfield resource, highlighting well tests that have reached upwards of 259 mg/L of lithium, making it a premier focus for first commercial production.
• Continuous Demo Plant Logistics: A breakdown of the $10 million USD investment into the demo facility, which is designed to run for 12 months to gather live operating data and refine engineering documents.
• Strategic Partnership with Saltworks: Insight into how EMP Metals is leveraging Saltworks’ industrial-scale technology to prove the remaining pieces of the lithium carbonate production flowsheet.
• Scalability and Economics: The transition from a 7-tonne annual demo output to a projected commercial facility producing between 1,500 and 3,000 tonnes per year, alongside the timing for updated economic reports (PFS/DFS) later in 2026.
• Portfolio Expansion: A look at the Mansur project as a secondary “hub and spoke” opportunity and the potential for future resource delineation and acquisitions.
