Collective Metals Unleashes Excitement: Strong Radioactivity Confirmed at Rocas Uranium Project

Collective Metals Inc. is electrifying the resource sector with an exhilarating announcement from its Rocas Uranium Project in Argentina. The company has officially confirmed robust surface radioactivity, signaling a potentially game-changing discovery within the prolific Sierra Chepes uranium district of La Rioja Province.

This triumphant exploration program, meticulously executed by the Collective Metals team, built upon decades of historical data from Argentina's National Atomic Energy Commission (CNEA).

The CNEA’s pioneering work had previously identified significant uranium anomalies across the Rocas site, setting the stage for Collective Metals’ recent breakthrough.

The latest phase of exploration, which included strategic trenching and comprehensive geological mapping, yielded truly remarkable results.

Trench 1, one of the initial targets, revealed impressive radioactivity readings of up to 2,860 counts per second (cps) over a substantial 50-meter strike length. However, it was Trench 2 that truly captured attention, delivering an astonishing 15,300 cps, confirming extremely high-grade uranium mineralization.

Geologists on-site pinpointed several critical features, including the presence of uraniferous pegmatites—igneous rocks rich in uranium minerals—and the identification of new, previously unexplored mineralized zones.

These findings are not isolated; they align perfectly with the historical CNEA data, which documented a measured uranium resource on the property with grades reaching up to 0.28% U3O8 (uranium oxide).

Chris Huggins, CEO of Collective Metals, expressed profound excitement regarding the results.

"These strong surface radioactivity findings are a monumental step forward for the Rocas Uranium Project," Huggins stated. "Our team's diligent work has not only reconfirmed the historical potential but has significantly expanded our understanding of the project’s high-grade uranium mineralization.

We are incredibly optimistic about the prospect of defining a substantial, economically viable uranium resource here."

The timing of this discovery couldn't be more opportune. With global demand for clean energy solutions surging, nuclear power is increasingly recognized as a vital component of a sustainable future.

Uranium, the fuel for nuclear reactors, is consequently experiencing a renaissance, making projects like Rocas critically important for future energy security.

Collective Metals is now poised to embark on the next crucial phase: a comprehensive follow-up drilling program. This program will aim to delineate the extent and depth of the newly confirmed mineralization, transforming these exciting surface anomalies into a quantifiable, inferred, or indicated resource.

The company's strategic vision is clear: to leverage these promising early results into a significant contribution to the world's growing uranium supply.

The Rocas Uranium Project stands as a testament to the enduring potential of exploration and the critical role it plays in meeting the world’s evolving energy needs.

Collective Metals is not just exploring for minerals; it's contributing to the foundation of future energy independence.
