269 ​​samples pending analysis at SGS lab in Brazil

TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Newsfile Corp. – April 26, 2023)– Appia Rare Earth & Uranium Corp. (CSE: API) (OTCQX: APAAF) (FSE: A0I0.F) (FSE: A0I0.MU) (FSE: A0I0.BE) (“Company” or “Appia”) is the Cachoeirinha Project (“PCH project“) is located in the Tectonic State of Tocantins in the Brasilia Fold Belt, State of Goias, Brazil.Click here for press release).

“As part of our due diligence process, we drilled 15 auger holes and sampled the west portion of the site at 1/2 meter intervals using a representative mix of trenches, drills and auger holes. Analysis is ongoing. We are in,” said Stephen Burega. , president of Appia. “In addition, there were two diamond drill holes that were initially completed by the vendor’s team but had not been previously analyzed. The entire length of the two diamond drill holes was sampled and the entire sample package provided for analysis. was included as part of the

A total of 269 samples were collected and are currently being processed at the SGS lab near Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Assay results are expected in mid to late May 2023.

“I had the opportunity to work directly with the vendor’s Brazilian geological team and see their excellent work firsthand,” Brega continued. “We sampled many of the main western targets on the PCH site, as well as more grassroots prospective eastern targets, and he spent four days surveying the surface geology. rice field.”

“As previously reported, the mineralogy of the area has lithofacies very similar to the Serra Verde project (Click here for website link) shows the classical model of the ionic clay structure. Based on assays obtained from the vendor, the grades appear to be similar to those reported for the Serra Verde Project,” he continued.

“Like Serra Verde, Appia’s PCH project is an ionic clay REE deposit, one of the relatively few deposits of this type found outside of China. It can be handled using simple techniques,” Brega continued. “The PCH project is a classical, highly weathered, alkaline granite complex that exhibits ionic clay development with elevated REE values ​​extending from just below the surface to depths of over 15 meters and currently owned. Adjacent to a large ultramafic complex, The Veil.”

The PCH project is 17,551.07 hectares. Large in size, circular structures originating from considerable depths, resulting in a series of REEs. Early indications are that the mineralogy is predominantly bastnaestite and monazite, containing clays that are preferentially rich in valuable magnetic rare earth elements. According to previous research by the vendor, magnetic REEs accounted for +/- 25% of his total REE found within the project area.

PCH project background

The Cachoeirinha Project (PCH Project) is located within the Tocantins Tectonic State of the Brasilia Fold Belt, more specifically the Arenopolis Magmatic Arc. The PCH project is 17,551.07 hectares. It is large and is located within the state of Goiás in Brazil. It is classified as an alkaline intrusive occurrence with highly unusual REE and niobium mineralization. This mineralization is related to the alkaline lithology of the Fazenda Buriti Plutonic Complex and the hydrothermal and surface alteration products of this complex by hypergenetic enrichment in tropical climates. Positive results of recent geochemical prospecting work conducted so far indicate the potential for REEs and niobium within laterite ion-adsorbed clays.
