Tom Drivas, CEO of Appia, commented: "We're excited to return to PDAC and connect with shareholders and potential partners. Stop by booth 2715 to discuss past, current, and future projects such as our latest Ultra Hard Rock carbonatite results in Goiás, Brazil (300 m at 2.55% TREO from surface, incl. 1.7 m at 14.27% TREO), our active Q1 2026 MT survey at the Otherside project along the 49 km long EM conductor, and preparations for upcoming diamond drilling at the Alces Lake high-grade REE project."
On February 24, 2026, Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp. announced that Ultra Rare Earth Inc. ("Ultra") has completed a 26-hole diamond drilling program totaling 7,347.1 metres at the Ultra Hard Rock carbonatite target. Information received from Ultra shows that preliminary assay results have identified significant intervals of Total Rare Earth Oxide (TREO) and Magnet Rare Earth Oxide (MREO). Additional assay results remain pending and are expected in the coming weeks. Appia holds a 25% interest in the ULTRA Hard Rock and ULTRA IAC Projects, which total 42,932.24 ha in size and are located within the state of Goiás in Brazil.
The Ultra IAC and Hard Rock Projects are unique with two distinct styles of mineralization, Ionic Adsorption Clay REE mineralization associated with the weathered Iporá Granite, (Ultra IAC) and high-grade REE mineralization associated with carbonatite intrusions (Ultra Hard Rock). Drilling work on the ULTRA IAC Target is underway with two Reverse Circulation (RC) rigs on site and two more rigs expected in the first week of March, with plans to drill a total of 952 RC holes. Initial Assay results are expected in the next few weeks. In addition, Ultra will continue exploration drilling with two auger rigs.
Tom Drivas, CEO & Director of Appia, commented: "These latest drill results continue to demonstrate the impressive scale and grade of the Ultra Hard Rock carbonatite mineralized system, with long intercepts from surface and multiple high-grade zones above 4% TREO. Particularly notable is the exceptional high-grade interval of 1.7 metres grading 14.27% TREO at 95.3 metres, which highlights the strength of the system. These results further reinforce our confidence as drilling continues to expand the target zone."
On January 20, 2026, Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp. has engaged Quantec Geoscience Ltd. to complete a Spartan magnetotelluric (MT) survey in Q1 (first quarter) 2026 on the company's 100-per-cent-owned Otherside uranium property in Saskatchewan's renowned Athabasca basin. The 10,422-hectare property is located approximately 28 kilometres (km) south of Fond-du-Lac, Sask.
Appia has identified a 49 km long, faulted electromagnetic (EM) conductor trend that is potentially prospective for Athabasca-style uranium mineralization and comparable with features associated with NexGen Energy's Arrow deposit, one of the world's largest high-grade uranium discoveries.
