iconMar 21, 2025 10:42
[Progress on Projects Including the Korsnas Rare Earth Mine in Finland] The scale of high-grade rare earth ore bodies at Prospech's Korsnas project in Finland has expanded, with multiple mineralized zones showing total rare earth oxide (TREO) grades above 1%, reaching as high as 4%, with a higher content of heavy rare earth oxides: 61.3 ppm terbium and 234 ppm dysprosium. Cygnus Metals made new progress in drilling at its Chibougamau project in Canada.

Prospech Expands High-Grade Rare Earth Ore Body at Korsnas Project in Finland, Encounters Multiple Mineralizations with Total Rare Earth Oxide (TREO) Grades Exceeding 1%, Reaching a Maximum of 4% with Higher Heavy Rare Earth Oxide Content: Terbium 61.3 ppm, Dysprosium 234 ppm.

The Company Has Catalogued, Sampled, and Analyzed 479 Previous Diamond Drill Holes and Will Update the Resource Estimate.
