SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY, CA / ACCESS Newswire / August 11, 2025 / Dateline Resources Limited (ASX:DTR)(OTCQB:DTREF) (“Dateline” or the “Company”), a North America-focused mining and exploration company, is pleased to announce the identification of multiple high-priority rare earth element (REE) drill targets at its 100%-owned Colosseum Gold-REE Project in California, following a comprehensive 3D magneto-telluric (MT) survey. A standout 2200N anomaly, indicating a potential carbonatite-hosted REE target, aligns with outcropping fenite dykes and exhibits a geophysical signature consistent with REE systems like the nearby Mountain Pass mine, located less than 10km south. This previously untested area, combined with new gold targets identified during the survey, positions Colosseum as a significant opportunity in the U.S. critical minerals and gold sectors. A detailed update on the gold targets will follow within seven days.

A recently completed 3D MT survey at the Colosseum Gold-REE Project in San Bernardino County, California, has revealed multiple high-priority REE targets, with the 2200N anomaly standing out as a potential carbonatite-hosted REE system due to its strong geophysical signature and surface geological indicators. This laterally extensive high-resistivity zone, extending from depth to surface, lies directly beneath fenite dykes-alkali-altered rocks commonly associated with REE-rich carbonatite intrusions. With no historical drilling in this area, the 2200N anomaly represents a prime target for a potential new REE discovery. The survey, conducted in June 2025 across 167 stations on 14 east-west lines spaced 200 meters apart, was processed using Viridien Geophysics’ Geotools software and proprietary RLM-3D inversion engine, providing high-resolution insights into the subsurface.

The 2200N anomaly’s geophysical characteristics-a high-resistivity zone coinciding with a gravity high and magnetic low-are consistent with carbonatite-hosted REE systems, such as the Mountain Pass deposit. The presence of fenite dykes at the surface further supports the interpretation of a carbonatite intrusive complex, known to host significant REE mineralization. Stephen Baghdadi, Managing Director, commented: “These MT survey results are a game-changer for Colosseum, confirming high-priority REE targets like the 2200N anomaly. Its carbonatite-like signature and proximity to Mountain Pass position us to potentially unlock a major REE opportunity in a top-tier U.S. mining jurisdiction. We’re moving swiftly to validate these findings and prepare for drilling.”

The Company is prioritizing deep drilling of the 2200N anomaly and other high-priority targets to test for REE mineralization and associated alteration. A parallel 3D inversion using the open-source ModEM software is underway to cross-validate the MT results, with outcomes expected soon to refine drill targeting. All datasets, including geophysical, geochemical, and geological data, are being integrated into a comprehensive 3D model to enhance target precision, drawing on insights from analogue deposits like Mountain Pass.

In addition to REE targets, the MT survey and ongoing exploration have identified new gold targets associated with conductive zones and structural features, potentially linked to the project’s 1.1 million ounce JORC-compliant gold resource (27.1Mt @ 1.26g/t Au, announced June 6, 2024). A detailed update on these gold targets will be provided within the next seven days, ensuring focused attention on both the REE and gold potential of Colosseum.

The United States is addressing vulnerabilities in its rare earth supply chain to reduce reliance on China, which imposed export controls on several rare earth elements in April 2025 amid rising demand for critical technologies. The Trump administration has pledged support for domestic production through expanded price guarantees, DoD investments exceeding $1 billion in rare earth magnets, and executive orders enhancing mineral security. Managing Director Stephen Baghdadi looks forward to returning to the United States later this month to further discussions with key officials. These initiatives underscore the strategic value of projects like Colosseum in securing resilient domestic REE supplies.

Strong Results Reflect Rising Demand, Business Growth, and Strategic Investments Amid Saudi Arabia’s Accelerating Energy Transition

RIYADH, SA / ACCESS Newswire / August 10, 2025 / Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) continued to deliver robust financial and operational performance in the second quarter and first half of 2025.
Revenue for Q2 grew by 24% to reach SAR 27.7 billion, while gross profit rose by 42% to SAR 7.4 billion. Operating profit increased by 21% to SAR 6.8 billion, and net profit reached SAR 5.3 billion-marking a 22% year-on-year increase.

For the first half of 2025, SEC reported a revenue growth of 23%, totalling SAR 47.2 billion. Gross profit rose by 40% to SAR 10.2 billion, operating profit increased by 20% to SAR 9.1 billion, and net profit grew by 19% to SAR 6.3 billion compared to the same period in 2024.

This strong financial performance was primarily driven by higher allowed revenue due to the growth of the regulated asset base of the electricity network and increased electricity production revenues in response to rising energy demand. These gains were partially offset by higher operating and maintenance expenses due to network expansion, asset growth, and increased loads, as well as a rise in provisions for accounts receivable and a decrease in other income.

SEC noted that the expansion of its regulated asset base reflects the continued growth in its transmission and distribution networks to meet increasing electricity demand, support renewable energy integration, and advance energy storage projects. The company is also maintaining strategic investments in digital transformation and operational excellence initiatives.

Commenting on the results, Engineer Khalid bin Salim Al-Ghamdi, Acting CEO of SEC, stated:

“Our positive performance in the first half of 2025 reflects the company’s continued growth across its business portfolio and asset base. It aligns with our strategy to provide reliable and secure electricity across the Kingdom, improve service quality for our customers, and advance sustainability and operational excellence.

We are committed to further strengthening our position and leveraging the significant opportunities emerging from the energy transition in Saudi Arabia, in line with the ambitions of Vision 2030-enabled by the dedication of our talented national workforce and our unwavering commitment to serving the nation.”

As of the end of H1 2025, the renewable energy capacity connected to the grid exceeded 9.2 GW, and the company successfully commissioned 8.0 GWh of battery energy storage systems across four sites: Bisha, Jazan, Khamis Mushait, and Najran.

SEC is currently developing an additional 14 GWh of storage capacity, expected to be operational and grid-connected next year, further strengthening grid reliability and renewable energy integration.

Reaffirming its commitment to embedding sustainability throughout its operations and enhancing its ESG practices, SEC achieved a significant leap in its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) rating from S&P Global, earning 65 out of 100 in 2025. This marks a 30% increase over2024 and an 85% improvement over 2023.

This accomplishment places SEC at the top of all companies in Saudi Arabia and as the regional leader in the energy sector across the Middle East and North Africa, surpassing the global utilities sector average by 66%, reinforcing its global leadership in sustainability performance.

Electricity demand continued to rise in H1 2025, with peak load growing by 3% to 75.1 GW, and total electricity consumption increasing by 10% to reach 160.5 terawatt-hours.
SEC successfully met record-breaking peak loads in Makkah, Madinah, and the Holy Sites during the 1446H Hajj season without a single service interruption-thanks to the company’s full mobilization of resources to serve pilgrims and ensure their comfort.

The company also made strong progress in service expansion and infrastructure development. SEC connected around 110,000 new customers, bringing the total customer base to 11.4 million.
The length of the distribution network grew by 6% to exceed 827,000 circuit kilometers, while transmission and fiber optic networks grew by 6% and 9%, respectively, reaching 103.8 thousand and 101 thousand circuit kilometers.

As part of its efforts to enhance service reliability and customer experience, SEC continued digital infrastructure upgrades and automated distribution substations, connecting them to control centers via fiber optic networks.

The automation rate of distribution substations reached 38.4%, and customer satisfaction rose to 85.8%, underscoring improvements in service quality and communication effectiveness.
