About Empire Metals Limited

 

Empire Metals Ltd (AIM: EEE and OTCQX: EPMLF) is an exploration and resource
development company focused on the rapid commercialisation of the Pitfield
Titanium Project, located in Western Australia.  The titanium discovery at
Pitfield is of unprecedented scale and hosts one of the largest and
highest-grade titanium resources reported globally, with a Mineral Resource
Estimate (MRE) totalling 2.2 billion tonnes grading 5.1% TiO₂ for 113
million tonnes of contained TiO₂.

 

The MRE, which covers only the Thomas and Cosgrove deposits, includes a
weathered zone resource of 1.26 billion tonnes at 5.2% TiO₂ and a
significant Indicated Resource of 697 million tonnes at 5.3% TiO₂,
predominantly from the Thomas deposit.  Titanium mineralisation at Pitfield
occurs from surface and displays exceptional grade continuity along strike and
down dip. The MRE extends across just 20% of the known mineralised footprint,
providing substantial potential for further resource expansion.

 

Conventional processing has already produced a high-purity product grading
99.25% TiO₂, suitable for titanium sponge metal or pigment feedstock. The
friable, in-situ weathered zone supports low-cost, strip mining without the
need for blasting or overburden removal.

 

With excellent logistics and established infrastructure, including rail links
to deep-water ports with direct access to Asia, the USA, Europe and Saudi
Arabia, Pitfield is strategically positioned to supply the growing global
demand for titanium and other critical minerals.

 

Empire is now accelerating the economic development of Pitfield, with a vision
to produce a high-value titanium metal and/or pigment quality product at
Pitfield, to realise the full value potential of this exceptional deposit.

 

The Company also has two further exploration projects in Australia; the
Eclipse Project and the Walton Project in Western Australia, in addition to
three precious metals projects located in a historically high-grade gold
producing region of Austria
