Nuinsco Announces 347m Intersection of Continuous Critical Metals & Phosphate Mineralization from Ongoing Infill Sampling Program at Prairie Lake

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / July 29, 2021 / Nuinsco Resources Limited ("Nuinsco" or the "Company") (CSE:NWI), is pleased to announce a continuous 347m intersection of Critical Metals and phosphate mineralization from diamond drilling at its 100%‐owned Prairie Lake project near Terrace Bay, Ontario.

This previously unsampled diamond drill core from hole NP0809 has now produced a continuous 347m intersection, starting 3m from surface, of niobium (Nb), tantalum (Ta), phosphate (P2O5), and rare earth elements (REE) including lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce), samarium (Sm), neodymium (Nd) and yttrium (Y). The sampling program is ongoing and will provide information to support the Company's goal of establishing a mineral resource at Prairie Lake; it is focussing on drill holes collared to intercept the Southwest (SW) Area (see map below) - this domain alone has an Exploration Target ("ET") of 435-515 million tonnes with grades as tabulated in the "Prairie Lake ET" table below.

"The Company is of course very pleased that analyses from the infill sampling program is producing such extensive domains of continuous rare earth, niobium, tantalum and phosphate mineralization," said Paul Jones, Nuinsco's CEO. "We will incorporate the new data ultimately with the aim of upgrading the ET to a resource estimate. We feel it is necessary to reiterate that this project is in a logistically excellent location, in a stable jurisdiction, has mineralization occurring at surface, has been the subject of a metallurgical program with good results, and is endowed with a diversity of increasingly sought-after elements and commodities including those defined as Critical Elements defined under the Canadian Minerals and Metals Plan ("CMMP"). The significance of this asset is not recognized, and it represents a substantial opportunity for the Company."

A total of 98 drill core samples were collected from NP0809, a 525.58m long diamond drill hole. A continuous interval of 347m has now been analyzed from 3m - 350m (approximately 200m vertically). NP0809 is one of ten holes from the southeast half of the SW Area target from which samples have been submitted for analyses so far this year (see map). Additional sampling, primarily from the northwest half of the SW Area target, will be completed later this summer.

P2O5 - phosphate, Nb2O5 - niobium oxide, Ta2O5 - tantalum oxide, 1g/t = 1 ppm

When combined with previously reported sampling (see press release dated January 7, 2008), the new results extend the continuous intersection in hole NP0809 to 347m of 0.109% Nb2O5 and 3.18% P2O5 with 0.003 % (30 g/t) Ta2O5 and 1411 g/t ∑REE.

Previous diamond drilling on the Prairie Lake property (2007 to 2010) has returned assays up to:

  • 1.008 % Nb2O5 over 1.0m (NP0711; 97.5-98.5m; carbonatite)
  • 23.08 % P2O5 over 0.44m (NP1005; 336.27-336.71m; carbonatite)

  • 590 g/t Sm and 887 g/t Y over 1.38m (NP1006; 165.92-167.3m; carbonatite)

The Prairie Lake project consists of 46 mineral claims covering an area of ~630 ha. Logistically Prairie Lake is superbly located, with ready access to power, road, rail and shipping infrastructure; it is easily accessed by an all-weather road from the TransCanada Highway 28 kilometres to the south. The mineralization identified is entirely contained within the Prairie Lake carbonatite complex; the ET of 515-630 million tonnes is defined by 59 diamond drill holes with grades as tabulated below.

All samples were analysed by Activation Laboratories (ActLabs) in Ancaster, Ontario. Samples were analysed for a whole rock and trace element ICP analytical package as well as for niobium, tantalum, and zirconium oxides using a fusion XRF method. An internal Quality Control Quality Assurance (QAQC) program was implemented with four QAQC samples (blanks and reference standards) added into the sampling stream.

2 The potential quantity and grade of the ET is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the discovery of a mineral resource. There is no National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects preliminary economic assessment in respect of the Prairie Lake ET.

Gun, Cocaine, and a High-Speed Chase: Luton Crime Haul Sparks Fresh Questions and Public Appeal11.7.2025 13:45:00 CEST | Press release

Officers discovered an estimated 25 kilograms of suspected Class A drugs, tightly packed and hidden in secret compartments. Alongside the drugs, they recovered a Beretta 92FS 9mm semi-automatic handgun, loaded with 38 rounds of ammunition. LUTON, GB / ACCESS Newswire / July 11, 2025 / A dramatic police pursuit through Luton on the night of June 29 resulted in the seizure of a loaded firearm and an estimated £600,000 worth of suspected cocaine. Nearly a week later, crucial questions remain unanswered, and police are still searching for individuals who fled the scene. The incident, which unfolded between 11:30 PM and 1:00 AM, began in Marsh Farm when Bedfordshire Police officers attempted to stop a vehicle as part of a proactive investigation into organised criminal activity. The driver failed to stop, sparking a high-speed chase that stretched through Dallow, Farley Hill, and eventually ended on Beechwood Road, where the vehicle was forcibly brought to a halt. Inside, officers discovere
