AUSTIN, TX / ACCESSWIRE / January 13, 2025 / Xtra Energy Corp. (OTC Pink:XTPT), a leading antimony exploration company, is pleased to announce the commencement of key permitting for its American Antimony Project located in the Bernice Canyon of Churchill County, Nevada. The company anticipates this significant milestone to mark the next phase in the project's development, positioning it as a pivotal asset in United States antimony production.

The initiation of the permitting process with Trinity Consultants - WestLand underscores the company's commitment to adhering to local and international regulatory standards while ensuring environmental stewardship and sustainable practices. Xtra Energy is working closely with environmental consultants, community stakeholders, and local government bodies to facilitate a smooth and transparent permitting process.

Xtra Energy anticipates that this process will encompass the restoration of the historic road leading to the Antimony King mine (See Figure 1.). The purpose of this recovery is to gain access to several sites within Bernice Canyon to drill and test the mineralized felsite dike near the Arrance, King Solomon, and Antimony King mines (See Figure 2.). A Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling program is likely to best address the need for quality samples along the felsite dike complex's strike.

In addition to facilitating exploration activities, gaining road access will enable Xtra Energy to test existing antimony stockpiles for potential third-party sale or supply agreements. This strategic move could provide an early revenue stream and strengthen the company's position in the antimony market. The company plans to evaluate the quality and quantity of these stockpiles to assess their commercial viability.

XTPT must obtain a permit from the BLM to achieve these goals. Given the projected physical impact of less than 5 acres, management anticipates completing a Notice of Intent (NOI) within a few weeks and receiving approval within 30 days of completion and submission.

Xtra Energy's Chairman and CEO, Mr. Mac J. Shahsavar, P.Eng., commented on the development:

"The commencement of the permitting process represents a critical step forward in advancing the American Antimony Project. This ensures that we continue to uphold our high standards of regulatory compliance and environmental responsibility. Moreover, the ability to access and test existing antimony stockpiles opens up exciting opportunities for potential third-party partnerships and early revenue generation."

The company anticipates completing the permitting process by Q1 2025 for targeting drilling in Q2 2025. This development will further de-risk the project and provide greater clarity on the timeline for moving into the next stages of exploration and development.

As new information becomes available, Xtra Energy will continue to keep stakeholders updated on the progress of the permitting process.
