Rush Rare Metals Unveils Exploration Strategy for Boxi Property in 2024

Rush Rare Metals Corp. is set to begin its exploration campaign in the spring of 2024 at the Boxi property, focusing on a mineralized dyke evident at the surface, running across the property for 15km. Initial assessments, including 22 cut samples, have shown promising anomalies in niobium levels. This upcoming exploration will involve further stripping, sampling, and both old and newly exposed channel sampling, aimed at defining the mineralization patterns and the dyke's structural characteristics.

The anticipated activities, costing around $60,000, are expected to offer significant insights into the economic potential of the dyke. CEO Pete Smith highlighted the benefits of the property's location, terrain, and provincial or federal exploration incentives, contributing to the cost-effectiveness of the program. The company plans to leverage detailed geological mapping, backpack drilling, and bulk sampling to gather comprehensive data on the dyke’s consistency, shape, and depth.

Encouraged by the surface findings, Rush Rare Metals also contemplates a broader drilling program later in the year, depending on the spring exploration outcomes. Work is scheduled to start in mid-April, with additional prospecting across the substantial 8,000-hectare property throughout the summer. Smith expressed optimism about the exploration, supported by specialized contractors and Quebec's favorable mining environment.
