Summer drilling: promising results for Critical Elements Lithium Corp.

Critical Elements Lithium Corporation has revealed encouraging analyses regarding phase 2 of the summer 2026 drilling program. This program, comprising 10,000 meters of drilling around the Rose West discovery, aims to expand the mineralized footprint and could integrate two new pegmatitic bodies into the existing system.

Recent drilling has expanded the mineralized footprint of Rose West, adding a 300 x 300 m block. The pegmatites, predominantly oriented subhorizontally, facilitate expansion via short drill holes. Notable grades include 2.05% Li₂O over 7.70 m at Pegmatite 5. To date, 18 holes have been drilled, reaching approximately 3,000 meters.

Located 10 km from the Rose lithium-tantalum project, the Rose West area now covers 1,250 m x 800 m. The program pursues three objectives: to expand the mineralized zone, to confirm geological continuity and to explore two new pegmatites.
