Commencement of Drilling at Olserum REE Project in Sweden

 

 

European Green Transition (AIM: EGT), a company developing green economy assets in Europe which aims to capitalise on the opportunity created by the green energy transition, is pleased to announce that the Company has commenced drilling at its Olserum Rare Earth Project in Sweden.

 

Overview

 

·    The initial low-risk programme totaling c.1,500m is targeting outcropping mineralisation at Djupedal, where previous sampling has shown assay values up to 20.45% total rare earth oxides (TREO), and Olserum West with outcropping mineralisation located closer to the historic resource.

·    Drill rig has been mobilised to the Olserum REE project with the first diamond drill hole underway at the Djupedal prospect.

·    The low-cost drill programme is aimed at derisking the project and confirming the district-scale potential for rare earth elements (REE) which the Company expects will support it in seeking to monetise the Olserum REE project by attracting a partner.

Aiden Lavelle, Chief Executive Officer of European Green Transition, said:

 

"Since the completion of our IPO in April this year, we have had a series of encouraging results from the Olserum REE project. Positive channel sampling results including three metres grading 1.58% TREO and one metre grading 2.27% TREO with c. 30% HREO in addition to high-grade samples assaying 4.79%, 5.8%,11.77% and 15.27% TREO, increase our confidence in the programme. More recently, test work has confirmed that the mineralisation style at Olserum is capable of producing a REE-rich concentrate from conventional and relatively simple processing techniques at a third party facility.

 

"This initial low-cost drill programme is mainly focused on the highly prospective 1km-long Djupedal trend, which we believe indicates that a district scale REE system is evident at Olserum. This is a crucial step which could support monetisation of the Olserum REE project."

 

Proposed Drill Programme

 

The initial programme at the Olserum REE project is focused on the Djupedal prospect where up to seven drill holes are planned to target newly discovered outcropping mineralisation along the 1km trend. The first hole is underway in the vicinity of the historic magnetite iron workings where high-grade samples of dump material assaying 4.79%, 5.8%, 11.77%, 15.27% and a maximum of 20.45% TREO were collected. Fieldwork involving mapping, ground magnetic surveys, rock chip and channel sampling at Djupedal has identified mineralised structures which are the target for drilling.

 

The total programme is estimated to be around 1,500m with two holes planned at the Olserum West prospect where channel sampling in 2023 previously confirmed broad zones of REE mineralisation in exposed outcrops located 300m northwest of the historic resource. The Company will assess the geology and mineralisation encountered in each hole and adapt the programme as required to give the best chance of intersecting further mineralisation.

 

Drilling is being carried out by Norse Diamond Drilling AS, an established local Scandinavian operator with a strong focus on ESG.

Notes to Editors

 

European Green Transition plc (listed on the AIM London Stock Exchange under the ticker "EGT") is a business operating in the green economy transition space in Europe. EGT intends to capitalise on the opportunities created by Europe's transition away from fossil fuels to a green, renewables-focused economy. The Company plans to expand its existing portfolio of green economy assets through M&A, targeting what it believes to be distressed and undervalued projects. EGT sees substantial opportunities to deliver value from its M&A pipeline, which includes critical material, wind, solar, processing and recycling projects.

 

EGT's highly experienced leadership team has a strong track record of building successful public companies through the acquisition of distressed assets. EGT plans to replicate this approach, creating a sustainable and profitable business while generating shareholder returns.

 

The Company's current portfolio of green economy assets includes the Olserum Rare Earth Project in Sweden. The Olserum project is one of Sweden's projects of "National Interest" and has the potential to become Europe's first operating REE mine. EGT has taken an exclusive option over a copper tailings recycling project in Cyprus with the potential to generate meaningful amounts of copper, and with the site and surroundings offering an excellent long-term location to establish a potential solar power facility. EGT has taken a further exclusive option to develop a peatland carbon sink programme and in turn generate carbon credits at Altan in Donegal in the northwest of Ireland. EGT owns additional projects in northern Sweden and Germany which have defined and tangible upside with potential to realise near-term inflection points in a cost effective manner. EGT's objective is to build a profitable business while aiming to monetise some of its assets through sale or partnership with larger industry players or European end users. The team is focused on success while remaining committed to its defined ESG strategy, ensuring excellent development practices across all projects in addition to regular local community engagement.
