Defense Metals intersects 2.33% TREO over 153 meters at Wicheeda rare earth project in Canada
Bitget2026/10/08 11:02Defense Metals reported final spring 2026 drilling assays from its Wicheeda rare earth project near Prince George, Canada. Hole WI26-104 hit 2.33% TREO over 153 m from surface, the top grade-by-thickness intercept of the campaign. In total, 10 holes totaling 1,702 m returned significant rare earth mineralization within the 2025 PFS pit limits. Across 19 resource-upgrade holes, assays averaged 87% of predicted inferred block-model grades; western wall holes averaged 24% above. Work now shifts to updating geological and block models for a revised mineral resource estimate aimed at upgrading inferred tonnage.
