Leading Edge Materials: Unveiling Romania's Mineral Wealth

Leading Edge Materials Corp. (TSXV: LEM) (Nasdaq First North: LEMSE) (OTCQB: LEMIF) has kicked off an exciting exploration drilling campaign at its Bihor Sud Project in Romania. The Company's focus is on defining a large-scale, potentially mineable body of mineralization, with early findings already hinting at significant polymetallic mineralized zones.


The primary objective of the drilling program is to identify a large-scale, potentially mineable body of mineralization. The Company is initially targeting Cobalt-Nickel-Gold mineralization in gallery G7, following up on high-grade chip sampling assays reported in late 2023. Once the drill is moved to gallery G2, it will focus on the extensive Zinc-Lead-Silver-Copper mineralization discovered there.


The delayed start to drilling was due to the late arrival of the drill rig and the implementation of robust health and safety protocols. However, the Company has now completed all necessary inspections and final works, ensuring a safe and compliant start to the drilling program.


The Company's Chief Geologist is on site and closely managing the exploration program. This appointment is expected to significantly enhance the efficiency and potential success of the exploration efforts.


The Company has reported assay highlights from chip sampling in gallery G7, including 6.7% Cobalt, 13.0% Nickel, and 7.5 g/t gold. Additionally, hand-held XRF-data from gallery G2 showed lead-zinc grades of several percent along with significant silver grades in the altered carbonates. These results are a testament to the Company's systematic exploration approach and the vast potential of the Bihor Sud Project.


In conclusion, Leading Edge Materials' exploration drilling campaign at the Bihor Sud Project in Romania is poised to unlock significant polymetallic mineralized zones. With a focus on defining a large-scale, potentially mineable body of mineralization, the Company is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for critical metals and minerals. Investors should closely monitor the Company's progress as it continues to explore the vast mineral wealth of Romania.
