[{"type":"text","content":" Drilling Confirms the Carbonatitic Breccia High Grade Zone Mineralization Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - January 22, 2025) - Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp. (CSE: API) (OTCQB: APAAF) (FSE: A0I0) (MUN: A0I0) (BER: A0I0) (the \"Company\" or \"Appia\") is excited to announce the geochemical assay results of its diamond drilling program on the high grade carbonatitic breccia located on the PCH project in the State of Goias, Brazil. The three drillholes (see Map 1) intercepted substantial Total Rare Earth Oxide (TREO), Niobium Oxide (Nb2O5) and Phosphate Oxide (P2O5) from the brecciated carbonatite intrusion identified in the Southwest Extension Zone of Target IV. Tom Drivas, CEO stated: \"The results from the first diamond drill holes are exceptional and would rank 2nd, 3rd, and 4th on the list of the best intercepts of the past year when compared to the recently reported results by MinerDeck, which highlighted the top REE intercepts of 2024. (Please Click Here) For all 3 drill holes to be mineralized with high grade rare earths from top to bottom highlights the enormous potential of the SW Extension zone. There is a strong case to be made that these results indicate that the PCH project could contain substantial high grade carbonatitic style rare earths in addition to Ionic Adsorption Clay (IAC) rare earth deposits. Mineralization is open at depth, northeast, northwest and southwest. We are currently developing plans for an expansion/resource-definition drilling program, and preliminary mineralogical-metallurgical test work on the diamond drill core from this program. These results exceed our expectations and increase our confidence in the success of our project.\" Highlights: Hole PCH-DDH-002 150 [email protected]% TREO; 0.12% Nb2O5; 2.76% P2O5 from Surface including 12 [email protected]% TREO; 0.21% Nb2O5; 9.52% P2O5 from 37 metres including 20 [email protected]% TREO; 0.13% Nb2O5; 2.8% P2O5 from 81 metres including 18 [email protected]% TREO; 0.14% Nb2O5; 2.29% P2O5 from 132 metres PCH-DDH-003 147.7 [email protected]% TREO; 0.18% Nb2O5; 3.26% P2O5 from Surface including 58 [email protected]% TREO; 0.26% Nb2O5; 5.18% P2O5 from Surface including 17 [email protected]% TREO; 0.11% Nb2O5; 1.44% P2O5 from 117 metres PCH-DDH-004 153 [email protected]% TREO; 0.15% Nb2O5; 2.31% P2O5 from Surface including 10 [email protected]% TREO; 0.24% Nb2O5; 3.22% P2O5 from 10 metres includi...
