At the Teufelskuppe Project, initial sampling returned average grades of 3.1 wt% total rare earth oxides (TREO), while the Kieshöhe Project delivered average grades of 1.5 wt% TREO.\n\nA standout result from diamond drilling at Teufelskuppe included an intercept grading 8.1 wt% TREO over 21.2 metres from a depth of 59.5 metres, alongside a broader intercept averaging 6.1 wt% TREO, reinforcing the project’s high-grade potential.\n\nKendrick said it is actively pursuing strategic partnerships to support the next phase of development, including technical studies, engineering work and economic modelling. The company aims to position itself as a future supplier to the rapidly expanding global rare earths market, which is forecast to reach approximately $16 billion by 2030.\n\nThe update reflects Kendrick’s increasing focus on critical minerals and its transition toward rare earth development following the restructuring of its broader exploration portfolio."}
