Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp. (APAAF) has announced plans to resume exploration at its Alces Lake rare earth elements project in Saskatchewan during summer 2025. The program follows 2024's maintenance and surveying work, building on targets identified through high-resolution AGG survey data processed in late 2024. The exploration will begin with Mobile Metal Ion soil sampling and ground gravity surveys to test REE-bearing zones from surface to 500 meters depth. These results will guide a diamond drilling program targeting mineralized zones. The company aims to identify geochemical anomalies correlating with gravity-magnetic-radiometric anomalies, which indicate monazite-hosted REE mineralization. The WRCB and Magnet Ridge Zones will serve as models for calibrating exploration tools.
Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp. (APAAF) ha annunciato l'intenzione di riprendere l'esplorazione presso il progetto di elementi delle terre rare di Alces Lake, in Saskatchewan, nell'estate del 2025. Il programma segue i lavori di manutenzione e rilievo del 2024, sviluppandosi sui target individuati grazie ai dati del sondaggio AGG ad alta risoluzione elaborati alla fine del 2024. L'esplorazione inizier脿 con campionamenti del suolo tramite Mobile Metal Ion e indagini gravimetriche a terra per testare le zone contenenti terre rare da superficie fino a 500 metri di profondit脿. I risultati guideranno un programma di perforazioni diamantate mirate alle zone mineralizzate. L'azienda punta a identificare anomalie geochimiche che si correlano con anomalie gravimetriche, magnetiche e radiometriche, indicative della mineralizzazione di terre rare ospitata in monazite. Le zone WRCB e Magnet Ridge saranno utilizzate come modelli per calibrare gli strumenti di esplorazione.

Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp. (APAAF) hat Pl盲ne angek眉ndigt, die Erkundung ihres Projekts f眉r Seltene Erden am Alces Lake in Saskatchewan im Sommer 2025 wieder aufzunehmen. Das Programm folgt auf Wartungs- und Vermessungsarbeiten im Jahr 2024 und baut auf Zielen auf, die durch hochaufl枚sende AGG-Daten identifiziert wurden, die Ende 2024 verarbeitet wurden. Die Erkundung beginnt mit Mobile Metal Ion Bodenprobenahmen und bodengravimetrischen Untersuchungen, um REE-haltige Zonen von der Oberfl盲che bis zu einer Tiefe von 500 Metern zu testen. Diese Ergebnisse werden ein Diamantbohrprogramm leiten, das mineralisierte Zonen anvisiert. Das Unternehmen zielt darauf ab, geochemische Anomalien zu identifizieren, die mit gravimetrischen, magnetischen und radiometrischen Anomalien korrelieren, welche auf monazit-gehostete REE-Mineralisierung hinweisen. Die WRCB- und Magnet Ridge-Zonen dienen als Modelle zur Kalibrierung der Erkundungsinstrumente.

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - June 12, 2025) - Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp. (CSE: API) (OTCQB: APAAF) (FSE: A0I0) (MUN: A0I0) (BER: A0I0) (the "Company" or "Appia") is pleased to announce their plans to resume exploration activities at its rare earth elements (REE) Alces Lake project in northern Saskatchewan this summer. This follows the 2024 exploration program, which focused on camp maintenance and detailed land surveying of drill targets in preparation for a full-scale exploration campaign in 2025.
The upcoming exploration program will build on targets identified through Appia's high-resolution AGG survey, which underwent advanced 3D processing in late 2024 to refine key geophysical anomalies. Scheduled for summer 2025, this next phase will begin with targeted Mobile Metal Ion (MMI) soil sampling and ground gravity surveys to test potential REE-bearing zones from surface to depths of 500 meters. The new results will directly guide a full-scale diamond drilling program for targeting and discovering additional mineralized zones at depth, that are comparable to REE mineralization already identified at surface across the property (Figure 1).
"Our focus for this exploration season is clear: to pinpoint and prioritize the most compelling drill targets that could lead us to the larger source(s) of Alces Lake's REE mineralization. By combining our recently processed AGG geophysical data with new targeted MMI soil sampling and ground gravity surveys, our summer program will result in a strategically focused drill campaign aimed at unlocking the deeper level potential of this exceptional property," stated Tom Drivas, CEO and Director of Appia.
The goal of this next phase is to identify geochemical anomalies that correlate positively with surface to depth gravity-magnetic-radiometric-defined anomalies (i.e. high-density, magnetic low, and equivalent Th radiometric high), which are key indicators of monazite-hosted REE mineralization. Appia's known showings, such as the WRCB and Magnet Ridge Zones, provide a reliable model to calibrate and guide these multi-source exploration tools.

Figure 1 - Proposed Exploration Targets (white circles) for the 2025 Alces Lake Program. These targets were identified through advanced 3D processing of the 2024 Airborne Gravity Gradiometer Survey and have been prioritized for upcoming Mobile Metal Ion (MMI) soil sampling and ground-based gravity surveys. All zones have been classified based on the highest wt.% TREO grade discovered in drill core within its zone.
