Power Metal Resources Plc ( (GB:POW) ) has provided an update.

Power Metal Resources has completed the initial US$350,000 earn-in expenditure at the Balthaga project in Saudi Arabia, securing a 20% stake and the right to increase its interest by a further 10% through additional near-term spending. A comprehensive re-assessment of the project, based on newly acquired geological, geochemical and geophysical data from the Saudi Geological Survey and historic work, has significantly refined the geological model and identified 12 revised targets prospective for granite-related rare metals such as lithium, tin, tungsten, niobium, tantalum, beryllium and rare earth elements. The work confirms Balthaga’s location within a highly evolved and mineralised crustal terrane, highlights specialised Dahul and Huqban granite intrusions enriched in multiple critical metals, and delineates zones of elevated prospectivity scores in stream sediments and soils, including a major fault-bound corridor within Huqban. Although ore-grade rock samples have not yet been recovered, the technical synthesis, independently reviewed by SRK Consulting, underpins plans for further soil sampling, trenching and drilling, bolstering the project’s role in EV Metals Group’s mine-to-refine strategy and aligning with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 ambitions to build a domestic critical minerals sector.
