These targets were defined by\n distinct airborne magnetic and radiometric anomalies, coincident rare\n earth element (REE) and pathfinder soil geochemical anomalies, and\n newly mapped carbonatite surface exposures. Two holes each tested\n Targets C and D and they were successful in confirming two new rare\n earth mineralized carbonatite systems. The table below includes the\n better sections from substantially larger anomalous REE intercepts and\n elemental analyses are combined into the generally accepted total rare\n oxide values (TREO).\n\nHole #\n\n\nFrom\n\n\nTo\n\n\nInterval\n\n\n% TREO\n\n\n% Sr\n\n\nCA-11-011\n\n\n126.0\n\n\n186.3\n\n\n60.3\n\n\n0.33\n\n\n1.03\n\n\nIncluding\n\n\n146.7\n\n\n151.0\n\n\n4.3\n\n\n0.49\n\n\n2.25\n\n\nIncluding\n\n\n154.0\n\n\n184.8\n\n\n30.8\n\n\n0.40\n\n\n1.21\n\n\nIncluding\n\n\n163.4\n\n\n173.2\n\n\n9.8\n\n\n0.57\n\n\n1.51\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\nCA-11-014\n\n\n116.2\n\n\n139.5\n\n\n23.3\n\n\n0.26\n\n\n0.96\n\n\nand\n\n\n148.0\n\n\n172.6\n\n\n24.5\n\n\n0.26\n\n\n1.07\n\nTargets C and D are 3 km, and 4 km, respectively, south east of Spectrum\n Mining Corps (Spectrum) Wicheeda REE deposit. Spectrum (a private\n company, and therefore not required to comply with N.I. 43-101\n standards) reported from their 2008/09 drilling a potential 11.3\n million ton resource averaging 1.95% total REEs. Select drill hole\n intersections from that program included 48.64 meters of 3.55% combined\n Rare Earth Elements (REEs), 144 meters of 2.2% combined REEs, and 72\n meters of 2.92% REEs (Graf, Lane, Morrison, 2009). All intersections\n reported by Spectrum were collared in mineralization, and the cited\n assays are reported as total elemental REEs, significantly understating\n REE oxide content.\n\n\nOther holes were drilled on A Tar...
