Marmota is pleased to announce that, as part of its major regional reconnaissance program, drilling has commenced at Target 21: 'Manna from Heaven' on EL 6040 (100% owned).

Key Points re Target 21 1. In ASX:MEU 26 April 2022, Marmota noted that our next door neighbour, Petratherm Ltd, made a Rare Earth discovery directly on the border with Marmota tenements. 2. In particular, the largest and most exceptional of the high-value magnet REE results attained by Petratherm was located on the Marmota tenement boundary 3. Subsequent testing by Petratherm found that REE grades decreased to the east of Hole 590 (on their side of the tenement boundary). 4. This is the first time that testing is being done to the Marmota side (i.e. west) of the exceptional discovery Hole 590.

Marmota Chairman, Dr Colin Rose, said: ' It is not every day that someone makes a discovery on your tenement boundary, and so close to surface, which is also why our Target 21 is called 'Manna from Heaven'. It is one of a number of highly prospective REE targets that Marmota is drilling, as part of Stage 1 of our substantial Regional Recon program. At Target 21, Marmota is carrying out a series of drill holes across varying grid sizes to see where Hole 590 leads, as well as carrying out a more general target program over the tenement. Intriguingly, this is the first time that many parts of this tenement have been drill tested. The program is progressing extremely well. '
