Electric Metals ( (TSE:EML) ) just unveiled an update.

Electric Metals (USA) Limited has agreed to sell its non-core Nevada silver assets, including the Corcoran silver-gold and Belmont silver properties held through North American Silver Corporation and Centennial Mining, to Ameerex Corporation for US$3.5 million in staged cash payments, while retaining a net smelter return royalty. The deal, which leaves Electric Metals in control of the assets until final payment and may trigger a modest finder’s fee, is structured to preserve upside from future production without ongoing operating exposure.

Management positions the sale as a disciplined capital allocation move that monetizes precious metal assets amid stronger prices, simplifies the business, and bolsters the balance sheet to fund its manganese-focused growth strategy. The transaction aligns with the company’s emphasis on advancing the North Star Manganese Project, which has a positive preliminary economic assessment, and does not require shareholder approval or constitute a fundamental change under TSX Venture Exchange rules.
