Company Highlights
- MTM Critical Metals Limited is an Australian mineral exploration and development company focusing on critical mineral assets in Canada and Western Australia.
- Rare earth elements (REEs) and niobium are on the Australian and Canadian governments’ critical minerals list for their value for the aerospace industry, electric vehicles, renewable energy and as a valuable export.
- The company has exercised its exclusive and binding option agreement to acquire the Pomme project, an advanced carbonatite-hosted rare earth and niobium asset in Quebec.
- The company recently completed its maiden diamond drilling program at the Pomme REE-Niobium Project with 13 holes drilled for a total of 5,718 metres. REE mineralisation was visually identified in all drill holes, indicating a very large mineralised system.
- The flagship Pomme project is near the Montviel Deposit, one of the largest undeveloped carbonatite-hosted REE and niobium deposits in North America.
- The company’s Western Australian assets focus on critical minerals to support decarbonization goals.
- The East Laverton asset is prospective for clay-hosted REE mineralisation and the company has also recently identified a nickel laterite deposit.
- The company’s underexplored Ravensthorpe project is prospective for critical minerals including REE, nickel, lithium and graphite.
- An experienced management team leads the company towards meeting the growing demand for critical minerals.
Overview
MTM Critical Metals Limited (ASX:MTM) is an Australian mineral exploration and development company focusing on rare earth elements (REE) and niobium projects to meet the growing demand for these critical minerals.
Initially incorporated to consolidate several gold exploration projects in the Goldfields region in Western Australia, the company’s recent discovery of REE at the East Laverton project has prompted a pivot to the critical metals from gold.
The company has taken a further strategic investment into the REE sector, exercising its option to acquire the Pomme REE-Niobium Project located in Quebec, Canada.
The Pomme project is an advanced carbonatite-hosted rare earth and niobium project with historical drilling that has confirmed the presence of significant REE and niobium mineralisation. Furthermore, the project is in close proximity to the Montviel REE-niobium deposit which is the largest undeveloped carbonatite-hosted REE deposit in North America, with a total resource of 266 million tonnes at a grade of 1.46 percent total rare earth elements and 0.14 percent niobium. This highly prospective asset in a mining-friendly jurisdiction allows MTM Critical Metals to further enhance its portfolio of critical mineral assets.
REEs and niobium are on both the Australian and Canadian governments’ critical minerals list for their value for the aerospace industry, electric vehicles, renewable energy and as a valuable export. Known for its mining-friendly regulations, Canada is the world’s second-largest niobium producer.
While often overlooked, niobium is a high-value critical mineral with prices exceeding US$40,000 per metric tonne and a market size that is expected to grow from US$2.38 million in 2022 to US$2.98 million by 2028, at a compounded annual growth rate of 3.78 percent.
Other assets in MTM Critical Metals’ portfolio also focus on critical minerals to support the energy transition.
A team with experience in the energy sector, geology, international finance, and throughout the mining industry leads MTM Critical Metals towards its goal of fully exploring its portfolio.
