Geomega Resources Inc. (“
Geomega” or the
“
Corporation”) (TSX.V: GMA) (OTC: GOMRF), a
developer of innovative processing technologies for the metals and
mining industries, is pleased to provide an update on its rare
earth magnets recycling demonstration plant. In addition, the
Corporation would like to provide details of its upcoming Annual
General Meeting of Shareholders (the “AGM”) and to notify of
warrants extension.
Demonstration Plant UpdateThe
demonstration plant is one of Geomega’s main projects as it
incorporates several of its core technologies such as reagent
recycling, iron recovery and valorization and critical metal
extraction and refining. Since the latest announcement on March 19,
2024, Geomega’s team advanced significantly with its work on
detailed engineering of the continuous demonstration plant. The
main deliverables for the process engineering work (P&ID and
layout) are now approaching completion. That allowed procurement to
advance accordingly and now over 90% of the long lead items have
been ordered. Procurement of the short lead items will continue in
priority sequence.
The primary crushing unit has already been
received but the remaining process equipment and utilities are
expected to begin arriving in November and will continue arriving
progressively throughout the upcoming months.
The civil engineering work, including fire
protection, HVAC, structural, concrete work, drainages and more,
has continued over the last 6 months and purchase orders are now
being issued progressively as the items get ready for execution.
All the required demolition work on site was completed and work to
prepare the new concrete floors, drains, water access, grounding,
etc. has begun at the end of October.
The approval from Hydro Quebec to increase the
power supply has been received and installation of the necessary
equipment for that purpose is planned for the upcoming months.
Municipal permits are gradually being received in sequence as the
required documentation for each permit is prepared and
submitted.
“It has been a very busy 6 months period to
bring the continuous demo plant design to the current stage of
engineering. A lot of progress has been achieved and we are now
entering the final steps before equipment installation and plant
assembly begins. Our shareholders have been waiting a long time for
this and we will provide more updates in a timely manner. Our lab
and piloting teams similarly continue being very active as they
work on our other promising projects such as bauxite residues
valorization where important progress is being done on a regular
basis. More information on each of the projects will be provided
once it is ready to be released.” commented Kiril Mugerman,
President & CEO of Geomega.
Annual General Special Meeting of
ShareholdersGeomega will hold its AGM at the offices of
Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP located at 800, Square-Victoria
street, #3500, Montreal, Quebec, on November 20, 2024 at 10:00 a.m.
More details about the AGM will be provided closer to the date of
the event on the Company’s website.

Geomega has filed to extend the expiry date of 11,459,093 warrants

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.
