[{"type":"text","content":"Global Energy Metals Provides Exploration Update and Initial Metallurgical Results on Its Battery Minerals Project in Nevada(via TheNewswire)\n \n \nVancouver, BC - TheNewswire - August 8, 2019 - Global Energy Metals Corporation (TSXV:GEMC) | (OTCQB:GBLEF) | (FSE:5GE1) (\"Global Energy Metals\", the \"Company\" and/or \"GEMC\") is pleased to provide an update on its ongoing activities and progress achieved toward the objective of identifying targets for an inaugural drill program at the Lovelock Mine in Nevada. Work programs outlined previously by the Company have progressed on schedule and management is more confident than ever that the Lovelock Mine is a superb value creation opportunity for shareholders. \n\n\n \nMetallurgical Analysis and Re-2Ox \n\n\n \nLab scale metallurgical tests continue to provide further information on the excellent historical grades observed. The bulk sample taken by representatives of partner Canada Cobalt Works from the waste rock in the historic dumps in front of the mine openings were sent to SGS Canada Inc. in Lakefield, Ontario and have undergone initial analysis resulting in head assay results of 0.2% cobalt, 0.19% nickel and 2.84% copper. A sample has been submitted for mineralogy testing and results will be used to better understand which minerals are hosting the metals and help guide the flotation program. \n\n\n \nResults will be used to assist with the Re-2Ox process that allows for cobalt-nickel-copper-bearing mineralized material to be put through the Re-2OX Process in order to confirm efficient battery metal extraction and create a potential battery grade test product. \n\n\n \nCanada Cobalt Works is working closely with SGS Canada Inc. and has been tasked with leading the supervision of the hydro metallurgical program. Additional results to follow. \n\n\n \nUnderground Mapping and Sampling\n\n\n \nThe focus of the detailed underground prospecting, mapping and sampling program was to further evaluate the subsurface geology and identify areas for future drilling, and serve as an important resource for the creation of a 3D geological model of the nickel-copper-cobalt rich property. \n\n\n \nParticular attention was paid to the main fault of the North Adit however additional underground workings have been discovered, adding to the extensive underground development. Interestingly, the Sout...
