Verde AgriTech Reports Significant Rare Earth Drilling Results
Verde AgriTech Confirms High-Grade Rare Earth Mineralization
Verde AgriTech Ltd. (TSX: NPK | OTCQX: VNPKF) is thrilled to announce significant findings from its recent drilling activities focused on expanding the resource base at the Minas Americas Global Alliance project. These promising results reveal continuous, high-grade rare earth mineralization right from the surface, heightening expectations for substantial expansion in the mineralized area.
Key Highlights of Drilling Results
All initial drill holes have intersected consistent rare earth mineralization in weathered clay, verifying high-grade zones in the target area. The standout intercept comes from hole MAV_AD 002, showcasing an impressive 14.2 meters of material averaging 6,858 ppm total rare earth oxides (TREO) and 1,673 ppm magnetic rare earth oxides (MREO). Within this interval, a notable 6.0 meters averaged 8,013 ppm TREO and 1,941 ppm MREO, including remarkable concentrations of neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, and terbium.
High Magnesium Presence
The presence of dysprosium, crucial for various industrial functions, was up to 86 ppm in the best drill interceptions, reinforcing the project's profile as a significant magnet rare earth deposit. These drilling results confirm a depth continuity of high-grade mineralization beneath trench PT-34, substantially increasing the confidence in expanding the broader mineralized footprint.
Ongoing Drilling Campaign and Future Objectives
A comprehensive 200-hole drill program is currently active, aimed at supporting an inaugural National Instrument 43-101 mineral resource estimate targeted for publication in early 2026. The ongoing drill program, initiated in October 2025, strategically employs three rigs to define the near-surface clay-hosted REO mineralization. The core objectives include:
- Extending the already identified mineralized zones around key trench samples through systematic drilling.
- Testing additional targets along previously interpreted mineralized trends.
- Establishing drill density in priority zones to support a maiden mineral resource estimate.
Exploration Insights
The latest drill results confirm the continuity of rare earth mineralization from surface to depth across all three holes drilled initially. The data reflects a strong contribution from high-value magnet rare earths, with notable grades reported from MAV_AD 001 through MAV_AD 003. The geological insights gathered thus far point toward a robust resource expansion strategy as Verde moves forward.
Looking Ahead
As Verde continues to advance the Minas Americas project, the unique approach combines sustainable practices with industry-leading standards. The company is poised to leverage existing infrastructure, experienced teams, and substantial financial backing to enhance the resource profile.
Verde AgriTech holds a distinctive position, not just as a fertilizer producer but also as a key player in the rare earths landscape, perfectly aligning strategic interests with the increasing demand for responsible and sustainable mineral sourcing in the global market.
