"this achievement is only possible thanks to the hard work and expertise of our team and the backing of our shareholders. together, we're positioning pitfield to become a transformational, world-class titanium asset and unlocking its full potential through commercialisation."   **ends**   for further information please visit www.empiremetals.co.uk or contact: empire metals ltd shaun bunn / greg kuenzel / arabella burwell   tel: 020 4583 1440 s. p. angel corporate finance llp (nomad & broker) ewan leggat / adam cowl tel: 020 3470 0470 shard capital partners llp (joint broker) damon heath tel: 020 7186 9950 st brides partners ltd (financial pr)                                          susie geliher / charlotte page tel: 020 7236 1177   about empire metals limited empire metals is an aim-listed and otcqx-traded exploration and resource development company (lon: eee, otcqx: epmlf) with a primary focus on developing pitfield, an emerging giant titanium project in western australia.   the high-grade titanium discovery at pitfield is of unprecedented scale, with airborne surveys identifying a massive, coincident gravity and magnetics anomaly extending over 40km by 8km by 5km deep. drill results have indicated excellent continuity in grades and consistency of the in-situ mineralised beds and confirm that the sandstone beds hold the higher-grade titanium dioxide (tio₂) values within the interbedded succession of sandstones, siltstones and conglomerates. the company is focused on two key prospects (cosgrove and thomas), which have been identified as having thick, high-grade, near-surface, in-situ bedded tio₂ mineralisation, each being over 7km in strike length.   an exploration target* for pitfield was declared in 2024, covering the thomas and cosgrove mineral prospects, and was estimated to contain between 26.4 to 32.2 billion tonnes with a grade range of 4.5 to 5.5% tio2.  included within the total exploration target* is a subset that covers the in-situ weathered sandstone zone, which extends from surface to an average vertical depth of 30m to 40m and is estimated to contain between 4.0 to 4.9 billion tonnes with a grade range of 4.8 to 5.9% tio2.   the exploration target* covers an area less than 20% of the overall mineral system at pitfield which demonstrates the potential for significant further upside.   empire is now accelerating the economic development of pitfield, with a vision to produce a high-value titanium metal or pigment quality product at pitfield, to realise the full value potential of this exceptional deposit.   the company also has two further exploration projects in australia; the eclipse project and the walton project in western australia, in addition to three precious metals projects located in a historically high-grade gold producing region of austria.   *the potential quantity and grade of the exploration target is conceptual in nature. there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a mineral resource. see rns dated 12 june 2024 for full details. this information is provided by reach, the non-regulatory press release distribution service of rns, part of the london stock exchange. terms and conditions relating to the use and distribution of this information may apply. for further information, please contact rns@lseg.com or visit www.rns.com.  rns may use your ip address to confirm compliance with the terms and conditions, to analyse how you engage with the information contained in this communication, and to share such analysis on an anonymised basis with others as part of our commercial services. for further information about how rns and the london stock exchange use the personal data you provide us, please see our privacy policy.   end   nrappuggbupaggw return to news summary
