Critical Elements Discovers Multiple New Mineralized Zones at Rose Grading Up to 806 ppm Ta2O5 and 2.27% Li2O

27.10.2011  |  Marketwired

MONTREAL, QUEBEC -- (Marketwire) -- 10/27/11 -- Critical Elements Corporation (TSX VENTURE: CRE)(OTCQX: CRECF)(FRANKFURT: F12) ('Critical Elements') is pleased to announce the most recent results of summer exploration work on its Rose tantalum-lithium project. The work done during the brief 15-day prospecting program identified at least five new zones that returned grades of up to 806 ppm Ta2O5and 2.27% Li2O in grab samples. All samples were taken from an area of approximately 10 square kilometres, at spacings of from a few metres to a few kilometres. The most significant results are shown in the table below. (Grab samples are selective by nature and are unlikely to represent average grades of the deposits).


UPDATE


Prefeasibility Study:


The Company also wishes to provide an update on the ongoing prefeasibility study. A Lidar airborne topographic study is now underway. This survey will be very useful in the final assessment of where to locate the various elements of the mine site, as well as for the impact study. The Company has also retained Les services d'ingenierie Mine-Concept to carry out a geotechnical study on the entire deposit and mine site. Six oriented core holes (630 metres of drilling) have been drilled to carry out various geotechnical tests (constraints, fracture orientation, etc.). These tests will all be incorporated into the final prefeasibility study, scheduled for completion at the end of the fourth quarter.


Impact Study:


The Company confirms that it has filed a notice of project with the environment ministry and the COMEV regarding its intention to open and operate a mine producing 1,500,000 tonnes per year, with an initial resource of 26,500,000 tonnes, an expected mine life of 20 years and production of approximately 225,000 tonnes per year of spodumene (lithium oxide, Li2O) concentrate to produce 30,000 tonnes per year of lithium carbonate (Li2CO3). The final figures will be determined by under the prefeasibility study. The environmental impact study will be completed during the month of September 2012 under the supervision of Genivar, a Montreal-based engineering firm.


The best results obtained from the summer exploration program on the Rose tantalum-lithium project are:
