Carbonatite REE Targets - Mt Weld REE Project
Ground Magnetics Finalises Drill Design
20 February 2023
Corcel Plc (London AIM: CRCL), the natural resource exploration
and development company, with interests in battery metals including
nickel, cobalt, and rare earth elements, announces that its farm in
partner on the Mt. Weld project, Riversgold Ltd ("RGL"), has
completed 3D Inversion Magnetics work on the existing drill targets
at Mt. Weld in order to prepare for an upcoming drill campaign at
the property.
Highlights:
o Magnetic features refined by ground magnetics offer clear
drill targets, only 1.4km from Lynas' Mt Weld rare earth oxide
mine
o Maiden eight-hole, 2,000 metre reverse circulation (RC) drill
program designed to test multiple targets to depths of 250
metres
o Approvals being progressed, with aim to commence drilling this
quarter
The Company reports that RGL has now released the results of a
ground magnetic geophysical survey on the Company's joint venture
tenement, and has confirmed the validity of multiple magnetic
targets and allowed refined planning for drilling (Figure
1)(http://www.rns-pdf.londonstockexchange.com/rns/3613Q_1-2023-2-19.pdf).
The Mt Weld Project is located only 1.4km west-north-west of Lynas
Rare Earths Limited's Mt Weld rare earth oxide (REO) mine near
Laverton in Western Australia (Figure
2)(http://www.rns-pdf.londonstockexchange.com/rns/3613Q_2-2023-2-19.pdf)
.
Corcel Chief Executive Officer, Scott Kaintz commented: "The
first operational activity following our farm-out of the Mt. Weld
project has now been completed, confirming the immediate
prospectivity of the project that we first observed last year. We
look forward to the initial drill campaign beginning and to
developing more projects of this nature, offering investors
exposure to exploration upside at minimal cost to Corcel."

About the Mt. Weld REE Project
The Mt Weld Project on tenement P34/4489 covers 171 hectares in
size and straddles the mine access road to Lynas's Mt Weld Mine
(see Figure 2). The tenement is predominantly covered by recent
transported sediments obscuring the underlying geology , with four
(4) discrete undrilled magnetic features (T1-T4) (Figure 3)
(http://www.rns-pdf.londonstockexchange.com/rns/3613Q_3-2023-2-19.pdf)
(see Figure 1 - 3) which are interpreted to potentially represent
carbonatite intrusives associated with the Mt Weld carbonatite
intrusive complex 1.5km to the east.
As part of RGL's initial exploration works on the Mt Weld
Project since the initial farm-out agreement with Corcel in January
2023, a ground magnetic survey was undertaken, which has confirmed
the magnetic features and has assisted in the design of a maiden
reverse circulation ("RC") program on T1-T3, with eight holes to be
drilled to a depth of 250 metres, for a total of 2,000 metres.
Approvals are being progressed, with the aim of commencing drilling
this quarter.
Full details of the farm-out and joint venture agreement with
RGL covering the Mt. Weld project were announced on 4 January
2023.
