Allied Critical Metals Announces Highlights from the 2023-24 Borralha Drill Program

Core Viewpoint - Allied Critical Metals Inc. has announced significant results from its 2023-2024 drill program at the Borralha Tungsten Project in Portugal, highlighting the potential for a stable and scalable source of tungsten concentrate outside of China and Russia [4][11][23]. Drill Program Highlights - The drill program involved over 3,685 meters drilled across 16 holes, with notable intercepts including 0.68% WO₃ over 2.0 meters and 0.63% WO₃ over 16.0 meters [5][6][11]. - The Borralha Technical Report indicates a mineral resource estimate of 4.98 million tonnes at 0.22% WO₃ (Indicated) and 7.01 million tonnes at 0.20% WO₃ (Inferred) [11]. Economic Context - Tungsten is classified as a critical metal, with approximately 87% of the global supply controlled by China, Russia, and North Korea, making Allied's project strategically important for Western markets [23][22]. - The focus on wolframite tungsten mineralization allows for lower processing costs and higher recoveries, enhancing the economic viability of the project even at lower grades [20][22]. Future Plans - The company plans to provide an updated Mineral Resource Report in Q4 2025, which will include results from over 5,700 meters of drilling from the current program [11]. - Continued exploration efforts are aimed at further defining the resource potential of the Borralha Tungsten Project [12].
