E-Tech Resources Inc. (TSXV: REE) (FSE: K2i) ("E-Tech" or the "Company") is pleased to provide a corporate update on recent developments at its Eureka Project in Namibia.
The Company has submitted the transfer of Exclusive Prospecting Licence (EPL 8748) to a newly formed Namibian project-level entity ("NewCo"), owned 85% by E-Tech and 15% by local Namibian partners. The licence transfer fulfills a key condition of the Purchase Agreement detailed in the Company's News Release dated March 28, 2023, consolidating project ownership and establishing a structure to advance future exploration and development activities.
In parallel, the Company has successfully amended the terms of EPL 8748 to include nuclear fuels as a designated commodity. This important milestone allows E-Tech to broaden its exploration mandate to include uranium and thorium, complementing the existing rare earth element ("REE") resource base and targets, and enhancing the long-term value potential of the Eureka Project.
Christopher Drysdale, E-Tech Resources Interim CEO and Director commented, "The submission of the licence transfer represents a procedural but important step toward completing the agreed ownership structure for EPL 8748. Coupled with the amendment to include nuclear fuels, we have positioned the Eureka Project to advance under a framework that supports both our established rare earth resources and the evaluation of additional critical minerals."
The Company plans to advance targeted exploration programs aimed at defining new critical mineral prospects while continuing to expand and de-risk its established REE resource base.
