"Geomega is continuing its development of core technologies and their application to various projects. During this year, the magnet recycling demonstration plant went through a major engineering transition from batch to continuous process and is now in the middle of the civil work execution before plant assembly can begin. The bauxite residues project has seen countless hours of piloting performed this year towards validating and demonstrating the technology and its economics. And lastly, our technology has been selected by Vale Base Metals as part of their Pyrrhotite Resource Recovery Innovation Challenge, a competition aimed at enhancing the recovery of valuable metals and minerals contained in pyrrhotite tailings. Geomega is looking forward to start working on demonstrating its technology for this exciting opportunity which has important implications for base and precious metals mines all over the world." commented Kiril Mugerman, President & CEO of Geomega.

About Geomega (www.geomega.ca)
Geomega develops innovative technologies for extraction and separation of rare earth elements and other critical metals essential for a sustainable future. With a focus on renewable energies, vehicle electrification, automation and reduction in energy usage, rare earth magnets or neo-magnets (NdFeB) are at the center of all these technologies. Geomega's strategy revolves around gradually de-risking its innovative technology and delivering cashflow and return value to shareholders while working directly with the main players in these industries to recycle the magnets that power all those technologies.

As its technologies are demonstrated on larger scales, Geomega is committed to work with major partners to help extract value from mining feeds, tailings and other industrial residues which contain rare earths and other critical metals. Irrespective of the metal or the source, Geomega adopts a consistent approach to reduce the environmental impact and to contribute to lowering greenhouse gases emissions through recycling the major reagents in the process.

Geomega's process is based around its proprietary, low-cost, environmentally friendly way to tap into a C$1.5 billion global market to recycle magnet production waste and end of life magnets profitably and safely.

Geomega also owns the Montviel rare earth carbonatite deposit, the largest 43-101 bastnaesite resource estimate in North America and holds over 16.8M shares, representing approximately 13% of the issued and outstanding shares, of Kintavar Exploration Inc. (KTR.V), a mineral exploration company that is exploring for copper projects in Quebec, Canada.
