Australian Rare Earths Limited expands uranium footprint at Overland Project

Significant shallow uranium mineralisation identified through 2025 drilling

Continued drilling aims to refine high-priority exploration targets

Australian Rare Earths Limited (ASX:AR3) has shared a promising update on its Overland Uranium Project, revealing significant progress in expanding shallow uranium mineralisation. The latest drilling campaign has successfully defined a broader target area, highlighting the potential for both near-surface and deeper uranium deposits.

Strong Operational Momentum

Throughout 2025, Australian Rare Earths (AR3) has undertaken a rigorous drilling program, completing 68 drillholes and covering a total of 6,167 meters. Recent results confirm the presence of near-surface calcrete-hosted uranium mineralisation, which enhances the project's value by adding a complementary opportunity to its initially targeted deeper palaeochannel uranium systems.

The drilling activities uncovered areas with elevated gamma readings reaching up to 1,010 counts per second (cps), and pXRF uranium concentrations surpassing 50 parts per million (ppm). These findings signal a robust mineral system, reinforcing the project's potential as a multi-faceted uranium exploration asset.

Strategic Path Ahead

Looking forward, Australian Rare Earths (AR3) plans to continue its extensive drilling program throughout 2025. The focus will be on defining the full extent of the near-surface uranium mineralisation while also evaluating additional targets exhibiting similar geological signatures. Over the coming months, key assay results are anticipated, which will further refine the geological understanding and strengthen the prospects for in-situ recovery (ISR)-amenable uranium deposits.

By applying a systematic and targeted exploration strategy, the company aims to unlock substantial value from both shallow and deeper mineralised zones. The presence of fault-bounded targets with strong gamma and uranium readings supports the favourable geological setting for future resource development.

Management’s Vision for Growth

Australian Rare Earths (AR3) is encouraged by the recent drilling outcomes, which significantly enhance the exploration model for the Overland Project. The growing footprint of calcrete-hosted uranium mineralisation aligns with the company's strategic vision of establishing a dual-asset uranium opportunity, offering flexibility and scalability for future operations.

With continued drilling and a sharp focus on high-priority targets, the Overland Project is positioning itself as a key player in Australia’s evolving uranium exploration landscape. Further results expected in the near term may pave the way for substantial advancements in resource definition and project development.
