Apex Critical Metals Appoints Trevor Hall to Board of Directors
Rhea-AI Summary
Apex Critical Metals (OTCQX:APXCF, CSE:APXC) appointed Trevor Hall to its Board of Directors, effective immediately. Hall is CEO of Clear Commodity Network, host of Mining Stock Daily, and has extensive mining and commodities communications experience with strong ties to Nebraska, where Apex’s flagship Rift Rare Earth Project is located.
Apex highlights Rift within Nebraska’s Elk Creek Carbonatite Complex, where historical drillholes in a 700 m corridor returned broad intervals of >2.00% REO and higher-grade >3.00% REO zones. The 2026 drilling program has extended high-grade mineralization about 380 m from historical holes and outlined a new “Neo Zone” with strongly elevated NdPr, showing NdPr distributions between 30–50%. In Canada, the 100%-owned Cap Project near Prince George, BC reported 0.59% Nb₂O₅ over 36 m, including 1.08% Nb₂O₅ over 10 m, within a 1.8 km niobium trend, supporting the company’s strategy to build a North American critical minerals portfolio.
