New Frontier Minerals reports Harts Range assay results

Assay results from the April 2025 field programme have confirmed two new drill targets and identified promising new prospects – Paddington and Westminster – located approximately 200 m and 450 m west of the mineralised Bobs Prospect. These new prospects, along with the mineralised prospects Cusp and Bobs, are associated in proximity to an east-west trending structural corridor now extending over 2 km at the Harts Range Project.

Highlights:

• High-grade assay results at two new prospects, Paddington and Westminster confirm significant heavy rare earth element (HREE) targets west of Bobs Prospect.
• Outcrop sampling has delivered results including:

- HRS019: 10.61% TREO (inc 1.28% Dy₂O₃, 0.22% Tb₄O₇) with 23.56% Nb₂O₅ and 15.67% Ta₂O₅.

- HRS031: 5.17% TREO (inc 0.61% Dy2O3, 0.10% Tb4O7) with 11.49% Nb2O5 and 7.30% Ta2O5.

- HRS032: 7.46% TREO (inc 0.53% Dy2O3, 0.05% Tb4O7) with 0.01% Nb2O5 and 0.002% Ta2O5.

• These results, combined with findings from the Bobs and Cusp prospects validate an east-west trending structural corridor now extending over 2 km at the Harts Range Project.
• High-grade multi-commodity Samarskite mineralisation has been identified showcasing exceptional HREE enrichment alongside significant Niobium and Tantalum values.
• Very high HREO/TREO ratios up to 96.69% highlight the dominance of Dysprosium and Terbium – two highly valuable magnet rare earth elements (REEs).
• New Frontier Minerals is actively validating and reviewing all targets with plans to drill test priority targets once suitable contractors have been appointed.

Ged Hall, Chairman, commented:

“We are extremely pleased with the results of the geophysical targeting and the systematic exploration efforts by the NFM geology team, which have led to the discovery of two new heavy rare earth targets at the Harts Range Project.

“Rock chip assay results from these newly identified Paddington and Westminster prospects have returned exceptional values including up to 10.61% TREO including 1.28% Dy2O3, 0.22% Tb4O7 with 23.56% Nb2O5 and 15.67% Ta2O5, confirming significant Heavy Rare Earth mineralisation. Together with the mineralised prospects Cusp and Bobs, the four prospects are associated with an east-west trending structural corridor now extending over 2 kilometres at the Harts Range Project.

“We are committed to unlocking the mineral potential of this strategic asset as quickly as possible in order to address the growing demand for rare earth elements, driven by the increasing use of clean energy technologies. The team will continue to actively validate and review all identified targets, and we look forward to drill testing high-priority prospects as soon as possible.”
