E3 Metals Corp. Acquires Additional Strategic Land for the Alberta Lithium Project

26.03.2020  |  CNW
  • New permits are located in the highly prospective Meadowbrook-Rimbey Leduc reef trend

  • A sampling program is planned to confirm historic results

  • E3 Metals' CEO recently interviewed at the PDAC conference in Toronto

CALGARY, March 26, 2020 - E3 Metals Corp. (TSXV: ETMC) (FSE: OU7A) (OTC: EEMMF) (The "Company" or "E3 Metals") is excited to announce the addition of 5 new strategic Metallic and Industrial Minerals permits acquired directly from the Alberta government, adding 36,434 ha to E3's overall permit area.

In conjunction with the Company's ongoing development of its proprietary Ion Exchange Direct Lithium Extraction Process (DLE Process), E3 Metals is continuously evaluating additional value creation opportunities to grow its project base. The five new permits acquired have been under review for several years as they occur along the highly prospective "Meadowbrook-Rimbey" Leduc reef trend (see Figure 1). This area is an extension of E3's existing Alberta Lithium Project, located just north of E3's North Rocky Resource Area (NRRA) which hosts a lithium deposit of 0.93 Mt lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) (see news release dated November 20, 2017). This prospective geological trend contains hundreds of wells that have been drilled to the Leduc reservoir, with many currently active today. Collectively, these wells are producing a combination of oil, gas and lithium enriched brine. Infrastructure along the trend presents abundant brine sampling and repurposing opportunities, which could minimize environmental impacts for a commercial lithium production project.

Historical data available from the Leduc Reservoir in this area indicates that the brine is enriched in lithium. E3 Metals plans to conduct sampling with several of our collaborative oil and gas partners to confirm the concentrations of lithium within this new area.

The Company also released 5 non-prospective Metallic and Industrial Minerals permits located at the south end of our permit area which were originally staked in 2017. Releasing the permits was part of E3's strategy to prioritize areas with realistic commercialisation potential. E3 now holds a total of 591,144 ha or 1.46 million acres of Metallic and Industrial Minerals permits in Alberta.

E3 Metals is looking forward to an exciting year ahead. For a comprehensive overview of E3 Metals Corp., the Company welcomes investors to view the recent CEO interview with Chris Doornbos. E3 Metals was also recently mentioned in the Financial Times.
