Apex Critical Metals Accelerates Drilling Campaign with Second Rig

Apex Critical Metals CA03753D1042

Apex Critical Metals has significantly ramped up its exploration activities at the Rift Rare Earth Project in Nebraska by deploying a second drill rig. This move by the Canadian exploration company marks a decisive acceleration of its Phase I program within the Elk Creek Carbonatite Complex, following the initial mobilization of equipment in late January.

The company’s current operations involve multiple drill holes. Hole RIFT26-002, situated approximately 100 meters south of the historic hole NEC11-004, successfully intersected carbonate over a span of roughly 330 meters, starting at a depth of 178 meters. This hole is designed to test the extension of historically identified mineralization along the southern strike direction.
