New Earth Resources Announces Plans for Lake Bottom Sediment Sampling Survey on its SL Rare Earth Elements Project

Executive Summary

• New Earth Resources Corp. has begun planning a lake‑bottom sediment sampling program for its SL Project in the Strange Lake area of Quebec, targeting rare earth element (REE) potential.
• The program will collect 10–15 samples per km² across both shallow and deep basins during late winter to early spring (Feb‑Apr), using ice cover for safe, cost‑effective access.
• Results are intended to generate regional geochemical data layers that will prioritize REE anomalies and guide future exploration targeting on the 23‑claim, ~1,102 ha property.

Key Details

• Project Scope: 23 claims covering ≈1,102 ha; New Earth holds an option to acquire a 100 % interest.
• Sampling Design: Systematic grid pattern; nominal density of 10–15 samples per km², adjustable based on target areas or lake availability.
• Timing: Field work scheduled for late winter‑early spring (February – April) to leverage ice cover for access and minimize environmental disturbance.
• Objective: Identify REE‑related geochemical anomalies in lake catchment basins, delineate high‑potential targets, and reduce subsequent exploration costs.
• Geological Context: Property lies within the southeastern Churchill Province, dominated by alkaline to calc‑alkaline rocks (granite, mangerite, quartz monzonite) similar to the nearby Strange Lake REE district.
• Qualified Person: Technical content reviewed and approved by Mr. Babak V. Azar, P.Geo., OGQ#10876, in accordance with NI 43‑101.
