About RT Minerals Corp. RTM is a junior exploration company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol “RTM”. The Company holds a 100% interest, largely royalty free, in a portfolio of rare earth element, gold and base metal properOes in Ontario, Canada.
Nordica Property (Cu, Ni, Co, Cr, Pt, Pd) is 100% owned by RTM. It is comprised of 34 claims in Nordica Township that cover the ultramafic layered Nordica Intrusive Complex in the Abitbi Greenstone Belt, within the Superior Province, 60 km southeast of Timmins, Ontario. Nordica is prospecOve for copper, nickel, cobalt, chromium, and palladium mineralization. Previous exploration activity on the Nordica property has encountered Cu grading up to 0.292% (rock-grab samples), Ni up to 0.24% in drill core over 1.0 m, Co up to 614ppm (outcrop), Cr up to 17.7% (grab-rock sample) and Pd up to 1.2ppb (outcrop chip and drill core over 3 1.0m)(MNDM files OFR 6102). There is a 2.5% NSR on all RTM Nordica claims.
Kenogaming, Pharand I and Pharand II Properties (Ni, Cr, Co) consists of 38 claim blocks that are 100% owned with 32 claims royalty free and 6 claims subject to a 2% NSR royalty. The properOes are situated in Kenogaming and Pharand Townships in the Northern Swayze Greenstone Belt, located within the Abitibi sub-province of the Superior Province, southwest of Timmins, Ontario. The ProperOes are located within the Hanrahan assemblage which is confined to the southeastern part of the Northern Swayze Greenstone Belt. Cumulate ultramafic bodies are the specific targets comprising the Kenogaming, Pharand I and Pharand II prospects. In 1979, previous operators tested a strong magnetic anomaly with a 184.5m long diamond drill hole, which intersected up to 0.25% nickel in carbonated and serpenOnized cumulate ultramafic with interbeds of chlorite and talc alteration over a 3.0m secOon at the bottom of the hole.
Ireland Property (Rare Earth Element) is a royalty free 52 claim block covering an inferred carbonate complex (the “Ireland Complex”) located in Ireland Township, 45 km northeast of Smooth Rock Falls, Ontario. The Ireland Complex is 100% owned by RTM and is approximately 4.0 km long, 2.8 km wide, oval shaped and is positioned along a southern extensional splay fault contained within the Kapuskasing Structural Trend. The Kapuskasing Structural Trend contains several well documented carbonate complexes that contain Niobium, Iron, Titanium and Rare Earth Element resources within various assemblages of carbonate rocks.
Case Batholith Group 1 and 190 Claim Staking (Rare Earth Element) consists of 90 claims covering the Case Batholith centered on Heighington Township, 85 km northeast of Cochrane, Ontario. The Case Batholith properOes are 100% owned and royalty free. The properOes occur within the boundaries of the Case Batholith and are specifically located in Heighington, Kenning, Sequin, and Case Townships. Five properOes are situated 12 km north of the Power Metals Case Lake lithium/cesium discovery in Steel
Township. The 190 newly staked claims adjoin Power Metals and Beyond Lithium land holdings located in the southeastern portion of the Case Batholith.
Case Batholith Group 2 (Rare Earth Element) consists of four properOes (113 claim blocks) that are 100% owned and certain of the claims are subject to a 2% NSR royalty, within the boundaries of the Case Batholith in northern Ontario.
