The results demonstrate high grade intersections across the entire tested area and broad intersections in every drill hole, validating historical data and providing a strong indication of an REE deposit of consequential size and grade.\n \n \n Highlights:\n \n \n \n ·\n 13 Reverse Circulation (\"RC\") drill holes for 473 m, with an average depth of 36.9 m, were sampled and sent for assay as individual and composite samples of up to 4 m\n \n \n ·\n Samples analysed reported Total Rare Earth Oxides (\"TREO\") (\n includes y\n ttrium oxide Y2O3\n ) with an average grade of 934.4 ppm with the highest-grade result of 2m at 6,127 ppm TREO from 8 m in DH TLR_010\n \n \n ·\n Reported TREO grades are:\n \n \n o TLR_001: 22 m @ 1,341 ppm from surface including 16m @ 1,537 ppm from 2 m\n \n o TLR_006: 36 m @ 730 ppm from surface including 14 m @ 860 ppm from 4 m\n \n o TLR_010: 29 m @ 2,193 ppm from 1 m including 17 m @ 3,139 ppm from 1 m\n \n o TLR_011: 32 m @ 1,045 ppm from surface including 15m @ 1,277ppm from 1 m\n \n o TLR_014: 45 m @ 1,222 ppm from surface including 17m @ 1,995 ppm from surface\n \n o TLR_015: 51 m @ 744 ppm from surface including 10 m @ 845 ppm from 15 m\n...
