(TSXV: MN) (the \"Company\" or \"Manganese X \") is pleased to provide an update on its fall exploration program underway on the Peter Lake Property, located near the town of Sainte-Anne du Lac, Quebec. Results from nine blast pit samples collected from the Peter Lake North and South Occurrences returned assays of 5.38% Copper, 0.96% Nickel and 922 ppm Cobalt; as well as other anomalous samples. The work was conducted -- The North and South Occurrence mineralization is associated with mafic intrusions within a metasedimentary sequence of rocks and has been traced intermittently on surface for approximately 2 kilometers. The preliminary blast sampling program indicates a mineralization grade averaging 2.23% Copper, 0.59% Nickel and 458 ppm Cobalt. Each sample consisted of 4-5 kgs of material collected from surface to an approximate depth of 1.53 meters.  Hole #9 was made on sterile rock with no apparent mineralisation for comparison purposes The sample program was completed under the supervision of consulting geologist Rémi Charbonneau Ph.D. PGeo independent Inlandsi Consultants senc. Qualified Person for Peter Lake Project .Full assay results are summarized in the table below. The assaying was performed by Laboratoire Expert Inc in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec.
