Critical Elements has started exploration activities at the Rocky Mountain Rare Earth and Rare Metals properties, located in southeastern British Columbia.
This exploration campaign will include an 1829 line-kilometer magnetic, airborne and radiometric geophysical survey at the Kin, Hiren, Trident and IRC properties and then ground prospecting, geochemical and geological surveys conducted at the Kin, Hiren, Trident and IRC properties near Revelstoke BC, and the Munroe property.
Comprehensively, this ground exploration program will consist of stream-sediment sampling by means of helicopter, secondly during prospecting traverses rock sampling was done and soil sampling using oriental portable XRF was conducted in more potential areas. The company will complete reconnaissance-scale mapping and prospecting at every project area along with the geochemical campaign. At last, the company will conduct channel sampling at the outcrop’s most excellent targets for further representative examination.
The program will be commenced based on the results obtained from a reconnaissance 2010 ground exploration campaign that focused on new potential RGS-generated targets such as Munroe, Kin, Hiren and alkaline intrusive’s famous targets like Ice River, Trident Mountain complexes. The company has yielded up to 500 g/t Ta2O5 and 2.82% Nb2O5 from the grab samples of Trident Mountain and 2.70% Nb2O5, 5.26% TREO from the Kin property during the 2010 exploration program. Several stream-silt geochemical anomalies are waiting for the follow-up test.
