RSS SubscribeVancouver, British Columbia – August 20, 2026 – Rackla Metals Inc. (TSX-V: RAK) (“Rackla” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the joint sponsorship of a master’s-level study on the Lentung tungsten skarn project. Master’s candidate, Sophia Huang, will commence the study this fall through Simon Fraser University (SFU) under the supervision of Dr. Xinyue Xu. Sophia is a 2026 graduate of the University of British Columbia, where she completed a bachelor’s degree in geology. The study is sponsored by the Company and supported by Mitacs, a national innovation connector that drives industry-academia collaboration to strengthen Canada’s productivity and global competitiveness.
Sophia’s study will focus on magma fertility and melt–fluid evolution of the Lened Pluton and associated tungsten skarn mineralization. The study will combine petrographic characterization of granites, dykes, skarn minerals, and veins with the analysis of melt and fluid inclusions. Analytical methods will include microthermometry, Raman spectroscopy, Electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), and Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). The research will evaluate the magmatic metal budget, melt–fluid relationships, and metal partitioning at Lentung, with comparisons to the Cantung system where appropriate.
