Apex Critical Metals Corp Stock Price, News & Analysis

Apex (OTCQX:APXCF) received a Nebraska Department of Water, Energy and Environment mineral exploration permit for its flagship Rift Rare Earth Project inside the Elk Creek Carbonatite Complex on January 5, 2026. The Rift Project covers approximately 3,500 acres and cites historical high‑grade intervals, including 155.5 m at 2.70% REO (including 54.9 m at 3.30% REO) and 236.2 m at 2.10% REO (including 68.2 m at 3.32% REO). Apex is finalizing contractors, access, logistics and target refinement, with drilling expected to commence in the first half of Q1/2026. A detailed drillhole and meterage summary will be released as the program starts.

Apex Critical Metals (OTCQX:APXCF) reported full assay results from its 2025 regional drilling at the 100%‑owned Cap project in central British Columbia and outlined a 2026 focus. Highlights include a widened niobium zone in CAP25-006 of 124.5 m @ 0.27% Nb2O5 (previously reported 36 m @ 0.59% incl. 10 m @ 1.08% Nb2O5). Multiple REE intervals graded 1.08–1.33% REO over short widths, and phosphate hits reached 16.2% P2O5 over 3.8 m plus broad zones such as 45.0 m @ 6.22% P2O5 and 58.2 m @ 5.63% P2O5. A large, untested buried magnetic anomaly was identified and, together with the CAP25-006 discovery, will guide 2026 drilling.

Apex Critical Metals (OTCQX:APXCF) announced on December 15, 2025 the discovery of a new mineralized carbonatite occurrence at its 100%‑owned Lac Le Moyne project in Nunavik, Québec following a July 2025 field program.

Key results: 151 rock samples collected; 4 boulders >0.20% Nb2O5 (peak 0.40% Nb2O5); 13 samples >0.25% REO (peak 0.50% REO); 7 samples >5.0% P2O5 (peak 10.36% P2O5); one sample with 4.94% F. Results outline a N–S corridor of anomalous niobium and REO and suggest a possible buried carbonatite source.

Company expanded coverage by staking 77 additional claims (~3,609 ha) to cover geophysical anomalies and the interpreted up‑ice source, and plans follow‑up work for the 2026 season. The company cautions these are selective surface grab samples and may not represent subsurface continuity.

Apex Critical Metals (OTCQB:APXCF) completed a 2025 re-logging and re-sampling program of preserved historical drill core from the Rift Rare Earth Project near Elk Creek, Nebraska.

The program re-logged prioritized Molycorp drillholes, documented lithologies and mineralized intervals, photographed core, and submitted samples to Actlabs for Fusion ICP-MS, ICP-OES, and XRF. Initial data review and modelling are underway and assay results are expected in Q1-2026. Apex says modern data will refine geological models and support 2026 drill targeting.

The company extended an investor relations agreement with Rumble Strip Media for a three-month term commencing December 5, 2025, with total consideration of CAD$1,000,000 (CAD$250,000 upfront). Apex also granted 75,000 stock options at $2.50 and 25,000 RSUs to a consultant.

Apex Critical Metals Corp (OTCQX:APXCF) has begun an extensive 2025 re-logging and re-sampling program of historical drill core from the Rift Rare Earth Project near Elk Creek, Nebraska.

Work overseen by Dahrouge Geological Consulting will select samples for modern multi-element analysis at Actlabs using Fusion ICP-MS, ICP-OES and XRF. Initial results are expected in Q1 2026. Historical Molycorp data are disclosed as historical, non‑NI 43-101 and will be validated only after Apex's own sampling and analysis.

Apex Critical Metals (OTCQX:APXCF) completed a high-resolution helicopter magnetic and radiometric survey at its 100%‑owned Cap Project in central British Columbia on Sept 15–16, 2025, covering 781 line‑km at 40 m spacing.

The survey delineated a coherent magnetic high ~2.2 km x 1.8 km with a northwest offshoot that roughly correlates with a 1.8 km niobium-in-soil trend and 2025 drilling. All 2025 holes intersected carbonatite; drillhole CAP25-006 returned 0.59% Nb2O5 over 36.0 m. Assays remain pending for 2,251 m of core with results expected shortly. Company cautioned the geophysical interpretation is preliminary and additional drilling is required to confirm the anomaly source.

Apex Critical Metals (OTCQX:APXCF) completed a non-brokered private placement on October 30, 2025, issuing 4,000,000 units at $2.50 per unit for gross proceeds of $10,000,000. Each Unit includes one common share and one warrant exercisable at $3.00 for two years. The company paid $255,500 cash fees and issued 102,200 non-transferable finder’s warrants (exercise $3.00, two years). Proceeds are for general working capital and exploration. All securities carry a statutory hold period of four months and one day.

Apex Critical Metals (OTCQX:APXCF) acquired additional rare earth exploration rights to consolidate a priority area at its Elk Creek Rift Project, increasing coverage to approximately 3,024 acres (1,224 ha) contiguous to known carbonatite targets.

The company plans Phase I drilling and permitting with a goal to commence the inaugural program before year-end 2025. Historical intervals cited for follow-up include EC-43: 134.1 m of 1.22% TREO (incl. 12.2 m of 3.18% TREO) and EC-04: 185.2 m of 1.18% LREO. A qualified person reviewed the release, but Apex notes historical results are not yet verified under NI 43-101.

The move aligns with U.S. efforts to expand domestic rare earth supplies amid cited 8,800 t domestic consumption (2024) and recent U.S. industry investments.

Apex Critical Metals (OTCQX:APXCF) announced on October 8, 2025 that it has increased its non‑brokered private placement from $5.0M to up to $10.0M due to strong investor demand.
