(the "Company" or\n "EMC") (TSX:EMC) is pleased to announce encouraging assay results from\n a surface soil sampling program conducted in June on a 3.75 sq km\n portion of its Tørdal property, a scandium, REE, and specialty metals\n pegmatite project in Telemark county, southern Norway.\n\n\nHighlights of Initial Surface Soil Sample Program:\n\n\n\nThe best sample assay returned a 217 ppm scandium value,\n\n\nEleven soil samples contained +50 ppm scandium, of which five samples\n exceeded 85 ppm and three exceeded 150 ppm,\n\n\nThe eleven soil samples were clustered within an area measuring 700 x\n 100 metres, or approximately 35% of the total sample area, \n\n\nA total of 131 soil samples were collected at 100-metre spacing\n intervals, in more accessible areas that avoided steep terrain,\n\n\nThe total sample area represented a zone of about 1,500 x 2,500 metres\n within the Heftetjern pegmatite field, and\n\n\nMany previously unmapped pegmatite dykes were noted in the areas\n traversed, some traceable on surface for several hundred metres. \n\n\n\nThe results of this initial soil sampling program are, by their nature,\n preliminary, and not conclusive evidence of the likelihood of a mineral\n resource.\n\n\nProperty Description\n\n\nEMC's acquisition of 100% of the Tørdal property option rights was\n a...
