[{"type":"text","content":" Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 29, 2021) - Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp. (CSE: API) (OTCQB: APAAF) (FSE: A0I.F) (FSE: A0I.MU) (FSE: A0I.BE) (the \"Company\" or \"Appia\") is pleased to announce partial assays results from its 2021 drilling program at the 100%-owned Alces Lake high-grade rare earth elements (\"REE\") and gallium property, Athabasca Basin area, northern Saskatchewan. ALCES LAKE HIGH-GRADE REE PROJECT Appia has received assays from diamond drilling core at Wilson North and Richard. Assay results from the Wilson North drill hole confirm the previously announced discovery of massive and semi-massive monazite (see October 13, 2021 news release) with some of the highest recorded rare earth grades discovered to date on the Alces Lake property. Highlights include: 21-WRC-015 hole at Wilson North intersected 9.38 metres of 17.53 wt% TREO from 15.22 m-24.60 m, including 2.14 metres of 32.17 wt% TREO with assays up to 37.92 wt% TREO Results from three drill holes at Richard have yielded 3.33 metres of 7.98wt% TREO (including 1.64 m of 15.26 wt% TREO), 3.49 m of 3.31 wt% TREO and 4.30 m of 3.62 wt% TREO. All four holes assayed high-grade gallium ranging from 0.01 wt% to 0.10 wt% Ga2O3 Wilson-Richard-Charles-Bell (WRCB) Area To date, a total of 119 drill holes (4,480 m including historic drilling) have been drilled in the WRCB area with at least 8 holes (1,035 m) remaining in 2021. Important drilling will be conducted around the Charles zone as well as a 400m long hole to test the extent of projected mineralization at WRCB. Previously announced on October 13, 2021, the Wilson North assays confirm the magnitude of this discovery. The Wilson North hole (21-WRC-015) is the most significant intercept to date at WRCB and confirms the potential quality of this area as a significant rare earths accumulation. The 9.38 m of massive and semi-massive monazite is essentially a true-width intercept, found at a down hole depth of 15.22 m-24.60 m and averages 17.53 wt% TREO. This intercept includes an interval of 2.14 m grading 32.17 wt% TREO, with assays up to 37.92 wt% TREO (See Tables 1 and 3 below). Frederick Kozak, President of Appia notes, \"The Wilson North discovery was important to confirm the continuity of WRCB REEs and confirms Appia's geological understanding as this discovery is further delineated.
