[{"type":"text","content":"MARION, NC / ACCESS Newswire / May 8, 2025 / Greene Concepts Inc. (OTC PINK:INKW) is pleased to announce it has received a proposal for an initial geological review and rare earth mineral exploration survey of the company's 150-acre property surrounding its bottling plant. This follows the March 25, 2025 announcement regarding the hiring of a geologist to perform a comprehensive feasibility study on the presence of rare earth minerals and other valuable resources on the land.","length":484,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"The proposal outlines professional geological consulting services to support a desktop review and a Phase 1 minerals exploration survey of Greene Concepts' McDowell County, NC property. This includes surface grab samples, soil samples and geophysics which would not endanger the aquifer and artesian wells that the bottling plant relies upon. This will ensure the continued integrity of the company's water source. The focus will include Rare Earth Elements (REEs), gold, base metals such as copper and zinc, and other Critical Minerals (elements), including zirconium and rutile. The Phase 1 work aims to identify key resource areas to direct future soil sampling and other exploration techniques.","length":706,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"McDowell County, home to the land surrounding Greene Concepts' bottling plant, lies within the Blue Ridge geological province-an area known for its complex metamorphic and igneous rock formations. This region is favorable for the development of pegmatites, which often contain rare earth elements (REEs) such as uraninite, allanite, zircon, and monazite. In addition to REEs, the county is also known for deposits of gold, feldspar, iron, granite, manganese, zinc, and sulfur. Currently, 22 mines have been identified in McDowell County, with 16 actively in production.","length":573,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"image","alt":"","displaySize":"","headline":null,"caption":"","credit":"Greene Concepts, Inc.","className":"","disableSlideshowImg":false,"size":{"original":{"width":624,"height":500,"url":"https://media.zenfs.com/en/accesswire.ca/2903a56a847d2433deb6393d8dc271cf"},"resized":{"url":"https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/QSxlk3uL15tqhchhwFwYZA--/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTc2OTtjZj13ZWJw/https://media.zenfs.com/en/accesswire.ca/2903a56a847d2433deb6393...
