NEOTECH METALS CORP. RECEIVES EXPLORATION PERMIT FOR ITS TREO PROJECT

Neotech Metals Corp. has received a mineral exploration permit from the British Columbia Mines Office for its 100-per-cent-owned TREO project, located approximately 80 kilometres northeast from Prince George, B.C.

The permit authorizes Neotech to conduct drilling on 10 pad locations, identified through previous exploration programs. This work follows the 2024 field season, which yielded significant results, including bedrock samples with grades of up to 28.97 per cent TREO (total rare earth oxides) and 2.91 per cent Nb2O5 (niobium pentoxide).

"I'm pleased to share these exciting developments for our company," said chief executive officer Reagan Glazier. "We're eager to advance these prospective exploration targets, with emphasis on high-grade, near-surface mineralization identified in earlier programs."

Work is expected to be conducted in the summer 2025 exploration season. Further updates with continuing developments will be provided in the future.
