Pomme REE-Nb Project Diamond Drilling Program To Recommence

MTM Critical Metals Limited (ASX:MTM) (MTM or the Company) is pleased to advise shareholders that the diamond drilling program at the Pomme REE-Nb project in Québec, Canada (Pomme or the Project) will soon recommence after being shut down due to forest fire activity in the vicinity of the Project area (see MTM ASX announcement dated 4 July 2023).

Fire conditions have eased in the region and field crews have been permitted to return to the Project area. The technical team will mobilise back to the field camp over coming days and diamond drilling is scheduled to commence on the second hole of the Pomme diamond drilling program (POM-23-002, Figure 1) next Monday 17 July 2023.

Logging and sampling of diamond drill hole POM-23-001 will also be completed as a priority once the team returns to the Pomme camp. Assay results for the first batch of samples from this hole are expected around the 30 July 2023 and further sample batches will be progressively delivered to a laboratory in Val d’Or in preparation for assaying.
