EMR Announces Third Quarter Results
FREDERICTON, NEW BRUNSWICK AND TORONTO, ONTARIO--EMR Microwave Technology Corporation today announced the company's results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999.
The Company has continued to generate revenues through testing contracts as an indicator of strengthening recognition from the mining industry. In particular, cooperative work with Bateman has resulted in significant new Australian test developments as well as new validated successes in copper process development where the company expects its major market to emerge through the next few months; this would strengthen EMR's position in the industry which has been focused strongly on the refractory gold sector. Meanwhile, the company is continuing on its cost control and cash management strategy which has significantly reduced operating costs throughout the year.
On August 20, 1999, EMR's Board of Directors authorized a private placement of 6,000,000 units at $0.26 per unit. Each unit consists of a common share and a warrant to purchase an additional common share at $0.35 for up to two years from the date of closing. This placement has raised a total of $300,120 as at 30 September 1999 and financing activity is continuing to fill the placement. The proceeds from this financing and any additional infusions of capital will be directed toward ongoing programs in EMR's development of economic, clean metallurgical processes.
EMR Microwave Technology Corporation is a process technology company dedicated to providing applications for the resource industries using proprietary microwave systems. The company's head office, analytical labs, and pilot plant are located in Fredericton, New Brunswick.
