Highlights
● Vital completed 10 holes across Tardiff Zones 2 and 3 to define a Stage 2 Mine Plan for Nechalacho rare earths project in Canada, with all holes hitting extensive mineralisation
● Drilling at Tardiff Zones 2 and 3 intersected thick zones with total rare earth oxides grades above 2% TREO
● Best results from Zone 2 from the 5 drill holes include:○ 25.1m at 3.03% TREO○ 19.0m at 2.05% TREO
● All Zone 2 intersections are within 75m of surface with the best results in the western mostdrill holes, indicating high-grade TREO is open to the west
● Zone 2 high-grade TREO intercepts are outside the Upper Zone Mineral Resource, indicatingpotential for an additional high-grade TREO resource in the Tardiff area
● The remaining 5 holes drilled at Zone 3 also hit shallow, high grade REO intersections
● Best results from Zone 3 include:○ 51.0m at 2.13% TREO○ 36.7m at 1.96% TREO
● All 5 holes drilled in Zone 3 confirmed the high grades previously encountered with high-grade mineralisation open in all directions
● With high grade mineralisation remaining open at all zones, Vital will undertake additionaldrilling at Tardiff to delineate the boundaries of the three Tardiff high-grade zones in addition to identifying the relationships between the zones, including whether they are in fact connected.
● Previously announced metallurigcal results from Tardiff indicate that this bastnaesite mineralision can be processed through the same plant being constructed to process North T ore.
