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.
