TSX: RES<br />
• Contains “one of the largest deposits of disseminated (low-grade)<br />
<strong>rare</strong> <strong>earth</strong>s in North America” plus high-grade zones (US Geological<br />
Survey (2) ); USBM historic resource estimate<br />
• Indicated mineral resource - 4.9 mm tons @ 3.77% REO (1) of oxide,<br />
Inferred mineral resources of 17.8 mm tons @ 3.03% REO (1)<br />
including oxide zone of 11.6 mm tons @ 3.22% REO (NI 43-101)<br />
• Exploring for additional oxidized REE mineralization in the Bull Hill area<br />
carbonatites within 500 feet of surface<br />
• Low-cost simple metallurgical process for near-surface oxide<br />
mineralization; Pilot Plant in progress;<br />
• Preliminary Feasibility Study in progress<br />
