Advancing lithium, tantalum and niobium targets with licence expansion in progress.

HCK is a 70 percent Aterian-owned licence in southern Rwanda backed by a comprehensive exploration dataset from mapping, geochemistry, geophysics and core drilling. The immediate focus is tantalum and niobium, with lithium potential under evaluation from identified pegmatite intercepts. The opportunity is to convert a data-rich position into partner-enabled, capital-aware programmes with a compliant route to market through Rwanda’s traceable supply chains.

. Near-term work focuses on consolidating historic and recent datasets, completing baseline mapping and multi-element geochemistry, and ranking priority targets for focused follow-up (geophysics, trenching and initial drilling), consistent with a capital-aware development plan.

Lithium (LCT pegmatites), tantalum, niobium, tin, tungsten

 Western Rwanda, within a proven 3T corridor with emerging lithium potential.

 Data consolidation, baseline mapping and geochemistry, phased target ranking.

 Capital-aware programmes with partner options where they accelerate progress and reduce risk.

 Activities aligned with recognised responsible-sourcing frameworks.

The Musasa licence covers 350 hectares; a highly prospective area in western Rwanda with targets across lithium (LCT pegmatites), tantalum, niobium, tungsten and tin. The licence is held 

, enabling a capital-aware programme focused on data-led target definition and phased follow-up.

Musasa is a multi-commodity exploration area in western Rwanda with targets across lithium, tantalum, niobium, tin and tungsten. Our plan is simple: build the baseline dataset, rank the best targets and advance a capital-aware work programme aligned to recognised traceability standards.

The new licence area represents a major step up from the original 50 hectares agreed with Kuaka. This expansion supports our plan to explore and develop metals that underpin the energy transition while contributing to sustainable economic growth in Rwanda.

Larger contiguous footprint for lithium, tantalum, niobium, tin and tungsten targeting

Clear path to a capital-aware work programme with phased follow up

Simplified governance and faster decision making under a single ownership structure

Next steps: mapping, multi-element geochemistry, target ranking, phased follow-up
