Critical One Engages Geotech for Airborne Geophysical Survey
Critical One Takes Strategic Steps with Airborne Geophysical Survey
Critical One Energy Inc. (CSE: CRTL) (OTCQB: MMTLF) (FSE: 4EF0), a prominent Canadian exploration company dedicated to critical minerals, has recently awarded a contract to Geotech Ltd. for an innovative airborne geophysical survey at its flagship project. This initiative is expected to significantly enhance the understanding and expansion of the antimony inventory at the Howells Lake Antimony-Gold Project located in Ontario, Canada.
Purpose of the Survey
The advanced airborne survey seeks to capitalize on previously announced antimony discoveries and aims to uncover new high-priority targets for antimony and gold. This positions Critical One as a leading operator in Canada’s largest undeveloped antimony deposit.
CEO Insights on the Future
Duane Parnham, Executive Chairman and CEO of Critical One, expressed his enthusiasm regarding this milestone. He stated that utilizing cutting-edge technology is pivotal in unlocking the Howells Lake Project’s complete potential. The objective is to expand existing discoveries while identifying new gold targets, thus enhancing value for stakeholders and ensuring a robust contribution to the critical minerals supply chain in North America.
Innovative Technology Implementation
Geotech is recognized globally for its expertise in airborne geophysical technologies. This survey will encompass the entire 13,990-hectare Howells Lake Project area, using advanced helicopter-borne VTEM (electromagnetic) and horizontal magnetic gradiometer technology. This sophisticated approach will allow the mapping of subsurface geological structures at depths exceeding 500 meters. The investment in this technology reflects a commitment to define potential locations for expanding both antimony and gold mineralization.
Expanding Exploration Horizons
Based on the accumulated information, Critical One is strategically positioned to identify new prospects within the areas of known antimony and gold mineralization. The updated geophysical data will facilitate quick assessments of other regions with similar geological signatures, significantly enhancing exploration efficiency.
Historical Context of the Exploration
Critical One has recently emerged as the first entity to undertake extensive exploration for antimony and gold in 40 years. The last recorded exploration efforts occurred during a period when antimony prices were substantially lower than today’s market conditions. This current airborne survey marks the first such initiative in over two decades, promising to provide invaluable, high-quality project data for the ongoing search for viable mineral targets.
Broader Market Impact
Antimony is increasingly recognized as a critical mineral essential in various application sectors, including military defense, battery technologies, and flame retardants. There is a rising demand for antimony driven by global supply constraints, notably as over 80% of the world's supply comes from nations such as China and Russia. The strategic positioning of the Howells Lake Project near Ontario’s Ring of Fire corridor enables Critical One to effectively tackle current supply chain challenges while increasing gold exploration efforts in a premier mining jurisdiction.
Qualified Oversight in Project Development
Bruce Durham, P.Geo, an independent Qualified Person under NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content related to the Howells Lake Project, ensuring adherence to industry standards and regulatory requirements.
