Manganese X Energy Commends New Brunswick's Vision for Comprehensive Minerals' Strategy
Manganese X Energy (OTCQB: MNXXF) commended New Brunswick's newly unveiled Comprehensive Minerals Strategy Framework at the EMP Conference (Oct 26-28, 2025) and described alignment with the province's five priorities: streamlining permitting, raising awareness, Indigenous participation, enhancing investment climate, and maximizing local benefits. The company sponsored the event and presented an update on its Battery Hill High-Purity Manganese (HPMSM) Project.
Following a completed pilot program with Kemetco, Manganese X reported additional laboratory-scale optimization test work on higher-grade ore-sorted material to refine leach performance, acid consumption and manganese recovery to support starting a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS), a stated next milestone toward demonstrating project economic viability. The province’s full minerals strategy is expected by Spring 2026.
Manganese X Energy (OTCQB: MNXXF) ha elogiato la recentemente annunciata Quadro Strategico Integrato sulle Risorse Minerali del New Brunswick durante la EMP Conference (26-28 ottobre 2025) e ha descritto l'allineamento con le cinque priorità della provincia: snellire i permessi, aumentare la consapevolezza, partecipazione degli Indigenous, migliorare il clima degli investimenti e massimizzare i benefici locali.

Manganese X Energy (OTCQB: MNXXF) a salué la nouvelle Cadre de stratégie minérale exhaustive du Nouveau-Brunswick dévoilée lors de la conférence EMP (du 26 au 28 octobre 2025) et a décrit son alignement avec les cinq priorités de la province : simplification des permis, sensibilisation, participation autochtone, amélioration du climat d’investissement et maximisation des retombées locales. L’entreprise a parrainé l’événement et a présenté une mise à jour sur son projet de manganèse à haute pureté Battery Hill (HPMSM).
À la suite d’un programme pilote terminé avec Kemetco, Manganese X a annoncé des travaux d’optimisation supplémentaires à l’échelle laboratoire sur un matériau de minerai de grade supérieur afin d’affiner les performances de lixiviation, la consommation d’acide et la récupération de manganèse pour soutenir le démarrage d’une étude de pré-faisabilité (PFS), étape prochaine annoncée vers la démonstration de la viabilité économique du projet. La stratégie minérale complète de la province est attendue d’ici le printemps 2026.
Manganese X Energy (OTCQB: MNXXF) lobte die neu vorgestellte Strategie-Rahmenwerk für Mineralien von New Brunswick auf der EMP-Konferenz (26.–28. Oktober 2025) und beschrieb die Ausrichtung an den fünf Prioritäten der Provinz: Genehmigungen vereinfachen, Bewusstsein erhöhen, indigene Beteiligung, Investitionsklima verbessern und lokale Vorteile maximieren. Das Unternehmen sponsorte die Veranstaltung und präsentierte ein Update zu seinem Battery Hill Hochreines Mangangranulat (HPMSM) Projekt.
Nach Abschluss eines Pilotprogramms mit Kemetco berichtete Manganese X über zusätzliche optimierende Arbeiten auf Labor-Ebene an höherwertigem ore-sortiertem Material, um die Lösungsleistung, den Säureverbrauch und die Mangan-Rückgewinnung zu verfeinern und den Start einer Vorzugsstudie (PFS) zu unterstützen, einem erklärten nächsten Meilenstein zur Demonstration der wirtschaftlichen Rentabilität des Projekts. Die vollständige Mineralien-Strategie der Provinz wird voraussichtlich im Frühjahr 2026 veröffentlicht.

Montreal, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - November 6, 2025) - Manganese X Energy Corp. (TSXV: MN) (FSE: 9SC) (TRADEGATE: 9SC) (OTCQB: MNXXF) is pleased to commend the Government of New Brunswick for advancing a comprehensive framework designed to strengthen and expand the province's mining and critical minerals sector.
At the 50th Annual Exploration, Mining and Petroleum (EMP) Conference, held in Fredericton, New Brunswick, from October 26-28, The Honourable Susan Holt, Premier of New Brunswick, and The Honourable John Herron, Minister of Natural Resources, unveiled the Province's Comprehensive Minerals Strategy Framework. The initiative lays the foundation for New Brunswick's full Minerals Strategy, expected to be finalized by Spring 2026, with a focus on transparency, environmental responsibility, and collaboration with First Nations, stakeholders, and industry.
"The Government of New Brunswick's framework demonstrates strong leadership and vision," said Martin Kepman, CEO of Manganese X Energy Corp. "As a New Brunswick-based critical minerals company, we fully support this modern, transparent, and environmentally responsible approach-one that balances investment, sustainability, and meaningful Indigenous participation."
Manganese X Energy Corp., a proud sponsor of the event, was represented by Chairman Roger Dahn, Director Des Tranquilla, and VP Exploration Perry MacKinnon, who presented an update on the Company's Battery Hill High-Purity Manganese (HPMSM) Project.
The provincial framework highlights five key priorities:
Streamlining regulatory and permitting processes
Raising public and industry awareness
Ensuring meaningful Indigenous participation
Enhancing the investment climate
Maximizing local economic benefits
"Manganese X's vision aligns closely with the province's priorities," added Kepman. "This framework helps position New Brunswick as a leader in responsible mineral development-creating lasting opportunities for communities, investors, and all New Brunswick stakeholders."
Following the successful completion of its pilot program with Kemetco, Manganese X Energy advanced additional optimization test work using higher-grade material produced through the recent ore-sorting program. These laboratory-scale studies focused on refining leach performance, acid consumption, and manganese recovery, providing important data in order to support starting the upcoming Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS)-a key milestone toward demonstrating the economic viability of the Battery Hill HPMSM Project.
This next phase will further define the project's development path as the Company continues to advance Canada's clean-energy transition, supplying a crucial component for the North American electric-vehicle and energy-storage sectors.
