Montréal – TheNewswire - December 4, 2025 – St-Georges Eco-Mining Corp. (CSE: SX) (OTCQB: SXOOF) (FSE: 85G1) is providing a corporate update from its wholly-owned battery processing subsidiary, EVSX Corp., with facilities located in Thorold, Ontario.
“ The start of full-scale operations has been cautious and measured, with our primary goal being the development of reliable, profitable, and scalable operations that de-risk the business and create long-term shareholder value. Given tight operating margins across the battery recycling industry, operational efficiency and optimization are critical. We have implemented numerous upgrades to the multi-chemistry line to reduce downtime and lower major operating costs, including labour and utilities. We now expect to ramp up towards full-scale operations and will continue evaluation and testing to pursue further efficiency gains,” stated Ian C. Peres, President and CEO of EVSX Corp.
The multi-chemistry line modifications have focused on high-impact processing efficiency gains to minimize operating downtime and to reduce major operating costs such as headcount/labor costs and utilities, as follows:
A new large-scale hopper, with automatic feed to a new conveyor system and a new dual shredder, has replaced the original front-end design, delivering a tenfold increase in throughput and materially enhancing profitability and scalability.
Attracting and retaining qualified talent has been a challenge in the region; however, we are pleased to report that a solid, committed team has been secured with additional candidates on standby as full scale operations ramp up. We continue to expand and develop solid relationships with local experts and businesses who have been providing outstanding and timely support.
We are pleased to have Call2Recycle as a respected and supportive partner in our startup with a three-year multi-chemistry battery supply contract intact. Further, all necessary city zoning and environmental compliance approvals (ECAs) to process all battery chemistries remain in place.
There is a full battery inventory at the Thorold plant ready to be processed as we ramp up operations. So far, several truckloads of batteries were processed across chemistries, representing significant tonnage.
