Osmond Resources found high-grade critical minerals, including rare earths and titanium, in southern Spain, expanding its project’s potential as a major EU-critical mineral source.
Osmond Resources has reported high-grade intersections of critical minerals at its Orion project in southern Spain, with new assay results from two drill holes in Zone 3 revealing significant rutile, zircon, and monazite mineralisation.
The findings, spanning depths of 132m to 243m, show rare earth oxide (TREO) grades from 0.154% to 0.254%, zirconium oxide from 0.67% to 1.53%, and hafnium oxide from 149 to 333 ppm, across multiple zones including Layer 1 and Layer 4.
The results expand the project’s prospective footprint across 228 square kilometres, supporting its potential as a major source of titanium, zirconium, hafnium, and rare earth elements, all designated critical by the EU.
Nine drill holes totaling 2,806m have been completed in Zone 3, with four more awaiting assay results.
Drilling is set to resume in April, focusing on Zone 1 to support a scoping study, while downstream processing studies and grant applications under the EU’s Critical Raw Materials Act continue.
Osmond Resources encontró minerales críticos de alto grado, incluidas las tierras raras y el titanio, en el sur de España, ampliando el potencial de su proyecto como una importante fuente de minerales de importancia crítica para la UE.
