(CSE: API) (OTCQX: APAAF) (FSE: A0I0) (the \"Company\" or \"Appia\") is pleased to announce that it has completed a high-definition Lidar and Orthophoto survey across an area of 1,702.50 hectares which includes the Company's priority Ionic Clay Target IV project area. Metro Cúbico Engenharia LTDA (Metro) was engaged by Appia to complete the survey. \"Orthophotos are essential for the efficient management of our drill campaign as they provide high-resolution and accurate visual information with maximum detail,\" stated Fabricio Santos, Appia's Geophysics and Processes Manager. \"Furthermore, LiDAR surveying provides a highly accurate contribution to terrain modeling, which is essential to ensure the accuracy of the geological model.\" Map #1 - Digital Terrain Model (DTM) with shaded elief and Target IV Boundary Metro Cúbico Engenharia LTDA has been working in Brazil since 2012, and is headquartered in São Paulo. Metro is made up of a multidisciplinary technical team with professionals with more than 20 years of experience in various technological areas (Fixed Laser Scanner, Mobile Laser Scanner, Mapping with Drone or UAV, Georadar – Geo Penetrating Radar – GPR, Conventional Topographic Survey, Specialized Industrial Topography) among others. Background on the PCH Project The PCH Project is located within the Tocantins Structural Province in the Brasília Fold Belt, more specifically, the Arenópolis Magmatic Arc. The PCH Project is 17,551.07 ha in size and located within the Goiás State of Brazil. It is classified as an alkaline intrusive rock occurrence with highly anomalous REE and Niobium mineralization. This mineralization is related to alkaline lithologies of the Fazenda Buriti Plutonic Complex and the hydrothermal and surface alteration products of this complex by supergene enrichment in a tropical climate. The positive results of the recent geochemical exploration work carried out to date indicates the potential for REEs within lateritic ionic adsorption clays and Niobium.
