Event Summary

Neotech Metals announced the first and additional rounds of drill results from its 2025 drill campaign at the 100% owned Hecla-Kilmer Rare Earth Project in Canada — Ontario, Canada. The company completed 20 holes, totaling approximately 8,000 metres of drilling, and re-logged and re-assayed historical core from VR Resources Ltd. The results from the Southern Pike Zone and Central Pike Zone indicate long, broad zones of continuous mineralization from surface and shallow depths, with consistent gallium values. Reagan Glazier, CEO of Neotech Metals, emphasized the importance of gallium for semiconductor supply chains and green energy technologies. These results are expected to be incorporated into the company's Maiden Resource Estimate in 2026, highlighting the project's potential as a critical minerals asset.
