American Marconi Wireless News - Critical Elements Confirms Electromagnetic Conductors on The Nemaska Belt Properties

An important helicopter-borne electromagnetic VTEM plus time-domain system ("VTEM") survey covering the Nemaska Belt group of properties in the Eeyou Istchee region of Québec has been completed. The 2,701-line kilometre VTEM survey executed by Geotech Airborne Geophysical Survey covers the entirety of Critical Elements' 100%-owned Nemaska Belt properties with flight lines at a 200-metre spacing. The objective of the survey was to identify conductors that could correlate with Nickel-Copper-PGE mineralization and define high-priority drill targets.

Additionally, the Corporation began a surface exploration program on the Nemaska Belt portion of the portfolio and the Rose blocks at the end of May 2025 and intends to pursue a prospecting, mapping, and sampling program until late August 2025. Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd. has been mandated to perform the summer exploration program targeting potentially economic mineralization including high-grade Nickel-Copper-PGE as well as lithium-bearing spodumene.

About Critical Elements Lithium Corporation

Critical Elements aspires to become a large, responsible supplier of lithium to the flourishing electric vehicle and energy storage system industries. To this end, Critical Elements is advancing the wholly-owned, high-purity Rose Lithium-Tantalum project in Québec, the Corporation's first lithium project to be advanced within a land portfolio of over 1,050 km². On August 29, 2023, the Corporation announced results of a new Feasibility Study on Rose for the production of spodumene concentrate. The after-tax internal rate of return for the Project is estimated at 65.7%, with an estimated after-tax net present value of US$2.2B at an 8% discount rate. In the Corporation's view, Québec is strategically well-positioned for US and EU markets and boasts good infrastructure including a low-cost, low-carbon power grid featuring 94% hydroelectricity. The project has received approval from the Federal Minister of Environment and Climate Change on the recommendation of the Joint Assessment Committee, comprised of representatives from the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada and the Cree Nation Government, received the Certificate of Authorization under the Environment Quality Act from the Québec Minister of the Environment, the Fight against Climate Change, Wildlife and Parks, and the project mining lease from the Québec Minister of Natural Resources and Forests under the Québec Mining Act.
