Rapid Critical Metals Reports High-Grade Silver Continuity and Parallel Lode Potential at Webbs Project

Key points

  • High-grade silver intercepts at Webbs confirm mineralisation continuity and potential for parallel lodes.

  • Acquisition of Webbs Consol consolidates a significant NSW silver corridor, enhancing exploration and development prospects.

  • The company is well-funded to execute its 2026 exploration plans, including at Webbs and the Prophet River Ga-Ge project.

Rapid Critical Metals (ASX: RCM) has released encouraging drilling results from its Webbs Silver Project, confirming high-grade mineralisation continuity and the potential for parallel lodes.

These results follow a series of strategic acquisitions aimed at consolidating its New South Wales silver assets.

Webbs Drilling Confirms High-Grade Continuity

Rapid Critical Metals recently completed six new diamond drill holes at the Webbs Silver Project, forming part of a 2,057m program.

The drilling reinforces the continuity of bonanza-grade silver mineralisation within the Webbs corridor.

Notable intercepts include 0.59m @ 4216 g/t AgEq within 2.5m @ 1075 g/t AgEq from 39.5m in hole WSDD011.

Further strong results were observed in WSDD009 with 1.0m @ 754 g/t AgEq within 4.49m @ 195 g/t AgEq from 55m, and WSDD008 returning 1.85m @ 453 g/t AgEq from 132.5m.

These results support the interpretation of additional sub-parallel mineralised structures. Importantly, the mineralisation remains open along strike and at depth, indicating strong ongoing discovery momentum.

2026 Exploration Program Planned

The positive drilling outcomes underpin an expanded 2026 exploration program at Webbs.

This program is set to include follow-up drilling, resource growth testing, and the integration of new data into updated geological models.

The company states it is well-funded to advance these planned exploration activities, aiming to further define the mineralisation geometry and expand the project's resource potential.

Webbs Consol Acquisition Supports Strategy

On 28 November 2025, Rapid Critical Metals completed the acquisition of the Webbs Consol Silver Project from **Lode Resources** (ASX: LDR).

This strategic move consolidated three nearby high-grade deposits – Webbs Consol, Webbs, and Conrads – into a contiguous silver corridor in New South Wales.

This consolidation is designed to enable unified mine planning and centralised processing options, while also unlocking district-scale exploration opportunities across the region.

The acquisition involved a consideration of 3 million AUD cash at completion, 0.75 million AUD payable 12 months post-completion, and the issuance of 115 million Rapid shares to Lode.

The Webbs tenement EL5674, which spans 12 square kilometres, is now secured until 2029.

Prophet River Ga-Ge Progress

In addition to its silver focus, Rapid Critical Metals recently provided an update on its Prophet River Ga-Ge project in British Columbia, Canada.

Field results confirmed high-grade Ga-Ge surface mineralisation from rock chip sampling.

Notable rock chip samples included up to 763 g/t Ge and 121 g/t Ga from a total of 32 samples collected.

Geophysical surveys have successfully defined five drill-ready IP/AMT anomalies, with drilling approvals and contractor engagement currently underway.

The company plans to commence drilling when seasonal conditions permit, and states it remains fully funded to advance exploration across all its projects.

Webbs Silver Potential Bolstered

Recent drilling at Rapid Critical Metals' Webbs Silver Project has provided strong evidence of continued high-grade silver mineralisation and the potential for new lodes, aligning with the company's consolidation strategy.

With a well-funded 2026 exploration program planned and strategic asset acquisitions completed, the company is positioning itself for potential resource growth.

High-grade silver intercepts at Webbs confirm mineralisation continuity and potential for parallel lodes.

The acquisition of Webbs Consol consolidates a significant New South Wales silver corridor, enhancing exploration and development prospects.

The company is well-funded to execute its 2026 exploration plans, including at Webbs and the Prophet River Ga-Ge project.
