VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tactical Resources Corp. (CSE: RARE) (OTC: USREF) (“Tactical Resources” or the “Company”), a mineral exploration and development company focused on the rare earth elements (“REEs”) that drive the critical technologies of the future, is pleased to announce it has completed a geophysics work program at its Lac Ducharme Project in Canada’s province of Quebec.
Building on previously completed surface sampling and geochemistry at the Lac Ducharme project, a ground magnetic survey and a ground radiometric survey was performed in May and June 2022 by Exploration Facilitation Unlimited Inc. (“EFU”) on the Lac Ducharme Rare Earth project located within the Côte Nord Region in eastern Quebec. EFU, a comprehensive discovery-focused services company that specializes in advancing underexplored properties through their technical field services completed the field data collection for the program.
The Company also engaged the services of Consulting Geophysicist Jean Hubert, a professional engineer and member of l'Ordre de Ingénieurs du Québec and of the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG) who processed and interpreted the resulting data generated by the EFU team.
The work program consisted of a magnetic and radiometric survey over the core of the property. The output lineaments will be used to gain a better spatial understanding of the structural geology and lithological units and how they relate to the known REE showings on the property. This survey is a key component of the toolbox approach to advance the Lac Ducharme project. The magnetic survey totaled 50.2 line-kilometers including 39.4 traverse lines and 10.7 of tie lines which were read with GMS-19V Overhauser magnetometer. The radiometric survey consisted of 894 measurements of the total radiation from near surface concentrations of key rare earth pathfinder elements potassium, uranium, and thorium.
Following processing, interpretation was completed by Consulting Geophysicist Jean Hubert to produce magnetic lineaments (Figure 1). These lineaments are key for structural analysis as they are potential indications for faults and allow interpretation in areas under cover with limited rock exposure.

Company CEO, Ranjeet Sundher, notes, “Our efforts in Canada are an important part of our overall strategic plan for the rare earth segment across North America. We are developing a strong portfolio that provides us with an ability to leverage increased private industry and governmental interest in the sector that offer both short-and long-term horizons of opportunity. In Canada, the government is working to ‘develop a comprehensive understanding of the nation’s mineral needs over the medium to long term,’ with nearly $4 billion proposed in the latest budget for a critical minerals strategy to boost supplies. Combined with our Company’s efforts in the USA, we are excited by the prospects the burgeoning REE sector can mean for Tactical Resource’s corporate growth and commensurate shareholder value on both sides of the border.”
Tactical Resources is focused on becoming a premier North American developer of REE products to meet domestic supply chain needs. For more information, please visit the Tactical Resources website.
On Behalf of The Board of Directors,
Sincerely,
