source:the westKula Gold has unveiled compelling grades of up 2534 parts per million total rare earth oxides (TREO) in an air-core (AC) and reverse-circulation (RC) campaign at its Rankin Dome joint venture project near Southern Cross in Western Australia.The company says drilling by its partner Australian Critical Minerals (ACM) has defined thick rare earths sections with a standout individual RC result of 5m at 1641ppm TREO. All RC holes revealed grades of greater than 1000ppm, while shallow AC holes show results up to 1365ppm TREO.One RC hole returned the longest grade-bearing intercept for...

source:miningIdaho National Laboratory (INL), in collaboration with US Critical Materials, announced on Monday a multi-phase project to develop rare earths processing methods.US Critical Materials’ flagship Sheep Creek property in Southwest Montana reported earlier this year grades that exceed any other domestic rare earth resource. As part of the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Earth Mapping Resource Initiative, the USGS, in cooperation with the Montana Bureau of Mines, announced in April it is conducting an aeromagnetic and aero-radiometric survey at Sheep Creek property.The project w...

source:eurekalertA University of Alaska Fairbanks–led research team has been awarded a $1.9 million federal grant to explore whether seaweeds are absorbing rare-earth elements near a rich deposit in Southeast Alaska.The study will focus on seaweeds in the waters near Bokan Mountain, a remote landmark on Prince of Wales Island known to contain rare-earth elements. Starting in March 2024, researchers will collect and analyze seaweed samples to determine whether significant amounts of metals that have washed into the ocean are being absorbed.“We want to see if seaweeds accumulate rare-earth eleme...

source:miningreviewAustralia’s Ionic Rare Earths Limited (Ionic), which is listed on the ASX, is expected to be in production within the next few months, albeit on a very small scale, at its Makuutu rare earths project in Uganda.As the company’s MD, TIM HARRISON, and its COO, DR TOMMIE VAN DER WALT, explained to ARTHUR TASSELL recently, the company is adopting a staged approach to development. The first stage, essentially a demonstration plant, is already under construction.While rare earths deposits are not particularly rare, Makuutu is highly unusual – at least in an African context – i...
