VoltaMore Than Doubles Springer Indicated Resource to 122.4 Mt, Ranks Among North America’s Five Largest Rare Earth Deposits by M&I Tonnage, and Delivers First Gallium Estimate
122.4 Mt Indicated at 0.59% TREO, up 116% from 56.6 Mt in February 2026, plus 197.5 Mt Inferred at 0.53% TREO, was estimated by SLR for the Springer rare earth and gallium deposit near Sturgeon Falls, Ontario, effective September 30, 2026. The Indicated high-grade core grew 140% to 27.6 Mt at 1.00% TREO. A first supplementary gallium estimate averages 36 g/t Ga, about 4,427 t in situ Indicated. A PEA is targeted for the first half of 2027.
Resource updateVolta Completes 2026 Drill Program with Wide Rare Earth and Gallium Intervals Across the Springer Rare Earth-Gallium Deposit and Identifies Niobium as a Potential Additional Critical Metal
All assays from the 13-hole, 5,445 m winter drill program at the Springer rare earth deposit near Sturgeon Falls, Ontario are reported, including 688.4 m grading 0.81% TREO and 68.1 g/t Ga2O3 from 4.6 m in SL26-35, 324.0 m of 1.00% TREO and 70.1 g/t Ga2O3 in SL26-29, and 2.95 m of 7.54% TREO and 282.7 g/t Ga2O3.
