Lithium in SK, Part 32: EMP Metals announces results from step-out well near Stoughton
This past summer saw EMP Metals drill a step-out exploration well just southwest of Stoughton, core it and test it for lithium. And the results showed some of the higher numbers for lithium concentrations announced in Saskatchewan to date.
If that name sounds unfamiliar, it’s because previously the work was done under the name of Hub City Lithium, which was a joint venture between EMP Metals of Vancouver (75 per cent) and ROK Resources of Regina (25 per cent). On Sept. 19, the closure was announced in a deal that saw ROK swap its 25 per cent interest in Hub City for 17 per cent ownership of EMP Metals. And thus, going forward, EMP Metals will be the name used.
