About EMC Metals Corp.

EMC Metals is a specialty metals company focusing on tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium, and other specialty metals within North America. The company is continuing the advancement of existing projects; specifically the company's flagship property the Springer Tungsten Facility in northwestern Nevada where the General Electric Company built a 1,000 tpd underground mine and mill facility in the early 1980's for its sole domestic supply of tungsten. Springer operated for less than a year when it was shut down due depressed tungsten prices stemming from China's aggressive selling into the market. Since GE placed this operation on care and maintenance in 1982, tungsten has enjoyed an expansive growth in its applications and China has indicated it is receding from its position as the dominant supplier of metal to the world. EMC Metals acquired Springer in late 2006 and has spent approximately $38 million to date on its rehabilitation and expansion. With the acquisition of TTS the company will now also aggressively pursue opportunities in unusual specialty metals.
