E-Tech Resources Identifies Kilometer-Scale REE Soil Anomaly at Eureka Project, Namibia

Executive Summary

• E‑Tech Resources identified a new kilometer‑scale REE soil anomaly at the Eureka Project, the largest discovered to date on the property.
• The anomaly shows exceptionally high La (up to 1,702 ppm) and Ce (up to 2,772 ppm) values and is associated with surface carbonatite and visible monazite.
• Detailed ground geophysics and follow‑up drilling are planned to refine targets for future drill testing.

Key Details

• Anomaly Size & Location: Approximately 1,000 m × 350 m, situated ~3.5 km east of Zone 1 within the Eureka REE Project (Erongo Mining District, Namibia).
• Geochemical Highlights: La concentrations up to 1,702 ppm; Ce concentrations up to 2,772 ppm, both serving as proxies for Nd and Pr.
• Surface Indicators: Visible carbonatite float and monazite at the surface, confirming a carbonatite‑related REE system.
• Sampling Methodology: Soil samples collected on a 40 m × 40 m grid; analyzed in‑field with a calibrated SciAps X‑555 portable XRF (pXRF) analyzer; QA/QC performed with blanks and standards every 20 samples.
• Comparison to Prior Work: Previous Zone 1 anomaly measured ~116 m × 60 m; the new anomaly is an order of magnitude larger.
• Planned Follow‑Up Activities:
• High‑resolution ground magnetic surveying to refine drill targets.
• Detailed surface mapping and grab sampling over the newly defined zone.
• Drilling program to commence after geophysical refinement (timeline not disclosed).
• Qualified Person: Tolene Kruger, BSc. (Hons), M.Sc., registered Professional Natural Scientist (Pr.Sci.Nat) with SACNASP, has reviewed and approved the technical information.
