EMP METALS CLOSES FIRST TRANCHE FINANCING AND ANNOUNCES FURTHER INCREASE TO $3,000,000

EMP Metals Corp. has successfully closed the first tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement financing, marking a significant milestone in the company's capital raising efforts. The Vancouver-based company issued 3,871,000 units as part of this initial closing, demonstrating investor confidence in its prospects.

The company has also announced a further increase to the total financing amount to $3,000,000, up from previously announced levels. This upward revision suggests strong investor demand and provides EMP Metals with additional working capital to advance its strategic initiatives.

The completion of the first tranche and the increase in total financing size reflects positive market reception for EMP Metals' business plan. The non-brokered structure of the private placement allows the company to retain more of the raised capital by avoiding broker fees, maximizing the funds available for operational purposes.

For the broader junior mining sector, this successful financing demonstrates that quality companies can still access capital markets effectively, even in challenging market conditions. The ability to increase the financing size mid-process is particularly noteworthy and suggests institutional confidence in EMP Metals' management team and asset portfolio.
