Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 31, 2025) -
Neotech Metals Corp.
(CSE: NTMC)
(OTCQB: NTMFF) (FSE: V690) (
"Neotech"
or
"the Company"
) is pleased to announce that field
crews are mobilizing this week to commence the inaugural exploration drilling program at its 100%-
owned
TREO Project
, located in the heart of British Columbia's emerging
Wicheeda Rare Earth
District
.
The initial drill program will test high-priority targets identified through detailed regional sampling and
mapping campaigns. These targets are designed to confirm
high-grade, near-surface mineralized
zones
, including
bedrock grab samples returning up to 28.97% Total Rare Earth Oxides
(TREO**) and 2.91% Nb
O
.
The planned drill holes (see Figure 1) are strategically positioned to evaluate mineralized corridors
within Neotech's mineral tenures and to better understand their relationship to the nearby Wicheeda
Rare Earth deposit currently being advanced by Defense Metals.
