MGX Minerals Inc. (“MGX” or the “Company”) (CSE: XMG / FKT: 1MG / OTCQB: MGXMF) is pleased to provide an update for its Gibraltar (“Gibraltar “) and Wonah (“Wonah”) silicon properties located in British Columbia. MGX is investigating the potential to source high-grade silica as a feedstock to be used in industrial silicon metal and solar silicon metal applications.
MGX Minerals Inc. (“MGX” or the “Company”) (CSE: XMG / FKT: 1MG / OTC: MGXMF) today announced it has filed financial results and operating highlights for the fiscal year ended (“YE”) July 31, 2018. This press release should be read in conjunction with MGX’s Consolidated Financial Statements (“Financial Statements”) and Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) for the year ended July 31, 2018, which are available for download on the Company’s website at www.mgxminerals.com and under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. All figures are reported in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.
MGX Minerals Inc. (“MGX” or the “Company”) (CSE: XMG / FKT: 1MG / OTCQB: MGXMF) reports that joint venture partner Chilean Lithium Salars (“CLS”) has mobilized a drill to the Francisco Basin Project located 30 kilometres south of the Salar de Maricunga. The 5-hole drill program will target the Northern Lagoon, where samples in May of 2018 averaged 694mg/L Lithium. (see press release dated September 27, 2018). The drill program will test lithium mineralization to a depth of up to 300 meters as well as the lateral extent of lithium mineralization. The data will be used to define the hydrogeological model for the Francisco Basin.
MGX Minerals Inc. (“MGX” or the “Company”) (CSE: XMG / FKT: 1MG / OTC: MGXMF) is pleased to announce, further to its news release dated November 23, 2018, it has closed the first tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement financing (the “Offering”).
MGX Minerals Inc. (“MGX” or the “Company”) (CSE: XMG / OTCQB: MGXMF / FSE: 1MG) reports that joint-venture partner A.I.S. Resources (“A.I.S.”) (TSX.V: AIS) has commenced drilling at the Salinitas lithium project (“Salinitas” or the “Project”) in Argentina. Samples recovered thus far from a 43-meter interval show a porous coarse sand which is conducive to the transmission of brines. The trenching program completed in October confirmed the presence of these porous sands. Resistivity of these sands is expected to be encountered at depth. The objective of the drill program is to test two geophysical anomalies generated from the previously completed TEM (Transient Electromagnetic Survey) survey. These anomalies represent potential aquifer structures based on interpretation of the geophysical profiles. Brines will be sampled down to 400m, with specific yield and other porosity tests. Subject to brine composition and flow rate, one well will commence a 30-day pump test.
Advantage Lithium Corp. (the “Company” or “Advantage Lithium”) (TSX Venture: AAL) (OTCQX: AVLIF) is pleased to provide this general update on activities at the Cauchari JV property located in Jujuy Province, Argentina.
MGX Minerals Inc. (“MGX” or the “Company”) (CSE: XMG / OTCQB: MGXMF / FSE: 1MG) is pleased to report that as of last week engineering partner PurLucid Treatment Solutions (“PurLucid”) had processed the first shipment of 40m3 of wastewater brine from an oilsands customer. The 5m3 system treated highly concentrated evaporator blowdown wastewater (“EBD”) and will provide significant cost savings for the customer. The system is currently operating at a 3rd party industrial location and the Company is pleased to report that the same steam assisted gravity drainage (“SAGD”) operator recently received an operating permit for the equipment from the Alberta Energy Regulator. A new 10m3 high temperature, high pressure system, is near completion and is expected to be deployed on site in January. The current 5m3 system will continue to operate and process water from customers. Additional systems are expected to be deployed approximately every other month through first and second quarter of 2019, with a significant acceleration of deployments thereafter.
MGX Minerals Inc. (“MGX” or the “Company”) (CSE: XMG / FKT: 1MG / OTCQB: MGXMF) and Highbury Energy Inc. (“Highbury”) are pleased to report completion of a comprehensive study analyzing beneficial gasification routes from Petroleum Coke (“Petcoke”) to three products of value: Hydrogen, FT Liquids and Fuel Gas. Each of these products has potential markets in the oil sands and heavy oil industry. The report outlines a variety and comparison of plant design parameters and a Petcoke-to-Hydrogen process with metals concentration via gasification, utilizing Highbury’s patented dual-bed gasification technology, which requires no fine grinding or air separation unit. The goal of ongoing joint research with Highbury is to develop fuel source alternatives and concentrated battery metals by-products including vanadium, nickel and cobalt, which can be seamlessly integrated into existing refinery operations. The study is viewed as positive and the project will now move to the demonstration plant design phase and preliminary pre-feasibility analysis.
Millennial Lithium Corp. (TSXV: ML) (FSE: A3N2) (OTCQB: MLNLF) (“Millennial” or the “Company”) is pleased to report positive drilling and analytical results from the latest exploration well at its Pastos Grandes Project in Salta, Argentina. Exploration well PGMW18-19 intersected, and bottomed, in a robust lithium-bearing brine zone which yielded 566 mg/l Li, 5,733 mg/l K and 3,385 mg/l Mg from 366m to the bottom of the hole at 602m for an intersection thickness of 236m.
MGX Minerals Inc. (“MGX” or the “Company”) (CSE: XMG / FKT: 1MG / OTCQB: MGXMF) is pleased to report the Company has increased its ownership stake in engineering partner PurLucid Treatment Solutions Inc. (“PurLucid”) to 60%.
