Eclipse Metals published assay results from its maiden percussion drilling program at the Gronnedal REE prospect. REE mineralization was intersected for the full length of all holes down to a depth of 22m with highlighted intersections returning e.g., 22m @ 9052ppm TREO, 20m @ 7132ppm TREO or 6m @ 9198ppm TREO.
The company notes that all assay results showed low uranium values (below 100ppm) while returning high ratios of up to 50% praseodymium and neodymium. Following shallow drilling and trenching, the company plans to test the prospect’s depth potential through diamond drilling in late 2023.
