Beyond Minerals Inc. (CSE: BY) has successfully concluded the initial phase of field exploration at its Ear Falls project in Ontario and the Rare One project in British Columbia. Over the course of the programs, the company’s field crews gathered approximately 600 samples, which have been transported to the laboratory for analysis. The technical team is currently awaiting the resulting assay data to guide further work.

At the Ear Falls site, the team focused on a biogeochemical survey, collecting 552 samples from spruce tree tips. This effort targets potential lithium-cesium mineralization across a 13-kilometre structural corridor associated with the Wenasaga Batholith. Simultaneously, the program at the Rare One project involved the collection of 24 stream-sediment and 21 rock samples. This work aims to verify historical geological signatures and evaluate whether the Fenwick Sill acts as a coherent source for rare earth element enrichment on the property.

Regarding the progress of the 2026 exploration season, the company remains focused on maintaining operational momentum while keeping expenditures aligned with its broader development goals.

"We are very pleased that we have completed two programs this early in the field season. As we are waiting for the results from the Ear Falls and the Rare One Projects, we will begin our exploration work at the Owl Creek Project in the first week of July. These programs reflect our disciplined, geology-driven approach to advancing multiple assets while maintaining strict budget control. We are well positioned to generate a steady pipeline of results over the next few months."

— Allan Frame, CEO

With the initial field stages wrapped up, Beyond Minerals has confirmed that exploration activity will shift to the Owl Creek project during the first week of July. These sequential programs form the basis of the company's efforts to develop its current asset pipeline throughout the remainder of the year.
