The fully funded and permitted campaign will include up to 1,500 metres of diamond drilling. Previous surface exploration in 2024 yielded significant results, including 3.33% Nb₂O₅ from carbonatite outcrop samples and a 1.8 km trend of niobium and REE soil anomalies with peak values of 1.21% total rare earth oxides (TREO). The drilling program, managed by Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd., is now underway with 24-hour operations.
Apex Critical Metals (OTCQB:APXCF) has initiated mobilization for a fully funded summer drill program at its Cap Project in British Columbia.

The campaign will include up to 1,500 metres of helicopter-supported NQ core drilling. Previous surface work in 2024 yielded significant results, including 3.33% Nb₂O₅ from carbonatite outcrop samples and peak values of 1.21% total rare earth oxides (TREO). Historical drilling has shown intercepts of 0.51% Nb₂O₅ over 4.0 metres.
The Cap Project, located 85 km northeast of Prince George, hosts a rare carbonatite complex. Drilling is expected to commence by the end of July 2025, with necessary permits secured under a Multi-Year Area-Based exploration authorization.
