Manganese X Reports Positive Phase 2 Ore-Sorting Results - Achieving 80% Mill Feed Upgrade Improvement - Projected to Reduce Capital and Operating Costs
Key Highlights Pilot scale results indicate Battery Hill material is very amenable to ore sorting: Mill feed grade can be increased by 80%. Testing was conducted with full size production equipment, not lab scale. By increasing mill feed grade, ore sorting is projected to positively impact CAPEX, OPEX, and production cost per tonne, leading to enhanced Project economics. Discussions underway to integrate ore sorting into the Battery Hill Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS") program. Montreal, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - August 12, 2025) - Manganese X Energy Corp. (TSXV: MN) (FSE: 9SC) (TRADEGATE: 9SC) (OTCQB: MNXXF) (the "Company" or "Manganese X") is pleased to announce highly positive Phase 2 ore-sorting results, demonstrating an 80% increase in mill feed grade in its large scale Battery Hill pilot program, managed by ABH Engineering. An 80% increase in mill feed grade means that, after ore-sorting, the material sent to the mill contains 80% more manganese per tonne than the original mined material. The ore-sorting program was performed at RADOS Technologies lab in South Africa where over 400kg of rock from the Company's Battery Hill manganese deposit near Woodstock, New Brunswick, was processed. The sample was split into two size fractions and tested using full-scale production equipment. Through ore sorting, waste rock was effectively removed, pre-concentrating the rock before further processing. This ore-sorting process is also projected to deliver significant capital expenditure (CAPEX) and operating cost (OPEX) savings, potentially supporting a strong outcome in the Company's upcoming PFS. Results confirm that Battery Hill material is highly amenable to ore-sorting, enabling substantial improvements in feed grade while providing significant potential capital and operating costs savings. The study was conducted in preparation for the Company's PFS, scheduled to commence in Q3 2025. Manganese X is having ongoing discussions with lead consultants regarding the integration of ore-sorting into the Battery Hill PFS program. CEO Martin Kepman commented, "We are highly encouraged by the results of this large-scale pilot program, which confirm the economic potential of the ore-sorting technology we are employing. These findings strongly support the viability of integrating this process into our operations. By increasing mill feed grade, ore sorting is projected to positively impact CAPEX, OPEX, and production cost per tonne." He continued, "With higher-grade feed, a smaller facility can produce more metal, while the ability to create low-grade stockpiles enables very high upgrade ratios and maximizes resource utilization. Potential benefits also include improved project NPV and IRR, reduced energy and water consumption, expanded resources through cut-off grade reduction, and decreased tailings storage requirements - along with the associated reduction in environmental impact." Brent Hilscher, VP of Mineral Processing at ABH Engineering, added, "The Manganese X results are an excellent example of what we call a 'clean sort' or 'sharp separation.' The high-grade rock can be easily concentrated with very high recovery rates. The impact of higher mill feed grade on project economics can be profound." Ore-Sorting Details: Results are consistently positive between 10mm and 100mm feed sizes. Pilot plant used a large sample over 400kg. Testing was conducted on full size production equipment, not lab scale. Potential mill feed grades of 10% to 15% manganese (Mn) were achievable, with full scale production equipment. Potential to stockpile medium grade rock by XRF system in single stage three-way split.

Manganese X Energy Reports Positive Phase 2 Preliminary Test Results from US Battery Innovator C4V
Montreal, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - May 14, 2025) - Manganese X Energy Corp. (TSXV: MN) (FSE: 9SC) (TRADEGATE: 9SC) (OTCQB: MNXXF) (the "Company" or "Manganese X") is pleased to announce positive preliminary test results from Phase 2 testing of its high-purity, battery-grade manganese material as part of a three-phase supply chain qualification program with U.S. Battery innovator company Charge CCCV (C4V). Martin Kepman, CEO of Manganese X, commented, "We are encouraged with the progress C4V is making in validating the performance of our high-purity, battery-grade manganese material. These test samples were produced from the Company's Battery Hill project in Woodstock, New Brunswick, which is recognized as one of the largest manganese carbonate deposits in Canada and the U.S. We're making strides, progressing through C4V's multi-phased validation process consisting of three phases, bringing us closer to securing a binding offtake deal for our Battery Hill project." This strategic collaboration aligns with Manganese X's broader objective to become a key domestic supplier of critical materials for North America's growing electric vehicle (EV) and energy storage markets. Phase 2 of C4V's Digital DNA Supply Chain Qualification Program involves comprehensive testing to evaluate the long-term performance (long-cycle performance) and durability of Manganese X's high-purity, battery-grade material. This phase focuses on single-layer pouch cells, which are representative of commercial EV battery designs, and aims to assess key indicators such as energy retention and overall stability over time. According to C4V, so far, the cells have shown encouraging stability, maintaining performance through up to 700 charge cycles—an early sign of strong long-term potential. Testing will continue until the cells reach 80% capacity retention. The testing is currently nearing its midpoint. A full technical report is expected once the cells complete between 1,500 and 2,000 charge cycles. The strong results from Phase 1 and continued positive performance in Phase 2 reinforces Manganese X's confidence in the potential of its high-purity manganese product's use in next-generation EV batteries.
