Exploration underway at the Tanami Heavy Rare Earth Project

PVW Resources (‘PVW’, “the Company”) is pleased to provide an update on the progress at the Tanami Heavy Rare Earth Project. Following delays due to the northern wet season and the high Covid infection rates within the Kimberley region, the Company is now able to return to the field and commence exploration activities. A Heritage Survey is scheduled for early May, which is the final approval required for the drilling program to commence.


Highlights
  • 2022 on-ground exploration activities are underway:
    • 2022 exploration has commenced with mapping and surface sampling along the 18km unconformity target aiming to extend areas of known xenotime mineralisation prior to upcoming drilling program.
    • Additional areas of interest adjacent to the unconformity are being investigated for surface mineralisation.
    • Drill holes and access tracks are being located and pegged, in preparation for the upcoming RC drill program at Killi Killi East and Watts Rise prospects; and
    • Heritage Survey for drill program approval is schedule for early May

The exploration team is currently in the field with Cultural Monitors locating drill holes, access tracks and acquiring data on new targets and along strike from known mineralisation. This preparatory work will enable the drilling program to commence as soon as possible upon completion of the heritage survey.

Executive Director Mr. George Bauk commented, “Following a productive and successful 2021 exploration program, the team has prepared an exciting 2022 exploration program with our maiden Tanami drilling program to commence in May following the Heritage Survey. A total of 10,000m of RC drilling and 25,000m of Aircore drilling has been designed to drill the highest priority targets identified from the data gathered during 2021 and any historical data”.

“We have an exciting 3km long target at the Killi Killi East prospect with a large amount of rock chips over 1% TREO and up to 12.45% TREO (124,500ppm TREO). These samples have been studied and confirmed the Heavy REE to be predominantly hosted by xenotime. A number of targets have been identified over the 18km unconformity. We have several areas identified for follow up in 2022 to explore and hopefully add to the list of drill ready targets”. “We have built on the team led by our Exploration Manager Karl Weber and supported by leading REE expert Robin Wilson”.

Reducing Reliance on China for Rare Earths Production and Processing

Experts have long warned that global overreliance on China for the production and processing of rare earth elements (REEs) was akin to a house of cards — and the Chinese government keeps proving them right.

In December 2023, China announced a ban on the export of multiple technologies related to REE extraction processing, including those used in the production of rare earth magnets. Rather than a new development, this announcement was simply the latest in a series of restrictions implemented over the previous year. Other banned exports include extraction technology, separation technology and rare earth alloys.

In response, governments around the world are ramping up their efforts to strengthen alternative sources for REE production and processing. There is considerable investment potential to be found in these efforts, provided one knows where to look.
