About Us

Emerita is a Canadian mineral resources exploration company dedicated to the acquisition, exploration, research and development of prospective mining properties in the Iberian Pyrite Belt (Spain) with a focus on traditional base metals (zinc and copper) and precious metals (silver and gold).

The Latin word EMERITA means “deserving,” “worthy,” “entitled to” and “person of merit.” The company name is inspired by Emerita Augusta, one of the major cities of the Roman Empire in Spain, founded in 25 BC. Today, the city is known as Mérida, capital of Extremadura Region where Emerita's original gold properties were located. The representation of the arch in Emerita’s logo echoes the arch above the Temple of Diana in the ruins of the Roman forum in Mérida.

Emerita’s shares are listed on the Toronto Venture Exchange (TSXV) in Canada under the symbol EMO, on the OTCQB Venture Market in the United States, under the symbol EMOTF and on the Frankfurt Exchange (FRA) in Germany under the symbol LLJA.

Our senior management team has decades of combined experience, having worked in major mining companies around the world, with a successful track record that includes numerous mineral deposit discoveries and the development of significant projects in North and South America, Africa and Australia.

An initial mineral resource estimate of 14.07Mt grading 7.63% ZnEq (Zinc Equivalent) in the M&I category and 4.71Mt grading 9.29 ZnEq in the Inferred category was reported in May 2023 at La Romanera and La Infanta deposits within the flagship Iberian Belt West project.
