Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp. has announced exceptional geochemical results from diamond drilling at the PCH project in Brazil, confirming high-grade mineralization. Key findings indicate substantial increases in both TREO and Niobium grades, as multiple drill holes ended in mineralization. This statement emphasizes the company’s commitment to quality control and ongoing exploration efforts in the rare earth and uranium sectors.
Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp. recently announced significant geochemical assay results from its diamond drilling program at the PCH project located in Goias, Brazil. The drilling confirmed the presence of a high-grade carbonatitic breccia mineralization, particularly in the Southwest Extension Zone of Target IV. The findings revealed considerable levels of Total Rare Earth Oxide (TREO), Niobium Oxide (Nb2O5), and Phosphate Oxide (P2O5).
The results indicate 97 intervals out of 516 tested samples exhibited overlimit readings for certain rare earth elements. The PCH project comprises two mineralization styles: Ionic Adsorption Clay (IAC) and hard rock carbonatitic breccia. Appia’s CEO, Tom Drivas, emphasized the outstanding grades found in the drilling results, which also showed an increase of 19% in TREO and 23% in Niobium grades compared to prior values as reported on January 22, 2025.
The diamond drill holes PCH-DDH-002, PCH-DDH-003, and PCH-DDH-004 have reported remarkable intersected averages. For instance, PCH-DDH-002 yielded an average of 1.34% TREO from the surface over 150 meters. Similarly, PCH-DDH-003 recorded 147 meters at 2.00% TREO and PCH-DDH-004 achieved 153 meters at 1.32%TREO. Additionally, all three drill holes ended in mineralization, suggesting an extension potential for mineralization at various depths.
The project is strategically located, benefiting from accessible infrastructure in a supportive community. Rigorous quality control measures, including internal lab checks and the use of standards and duplicates, were employed to assure the reliability of results. All analytical results have successfully passed internal QA/QC reviews, as certified by ALS, a reputable laboratory. The technical data has been validated by Don Hains, P. Geo., ensuring compliance with industry standards.
Appia focuses on becoming a significant player in the rare earth and uranium sectors, possessing extensive landholdings in Brazil and Canada. The company is committed to high-grade critical rare earth elements and uranium exploration through various properties, including the Alces Lake and Athabasca Basin sites.
