Chris Gibbs and Marty Weems of American Rare Earths talk about tripling its Halleck Creek Target
Hey Papa- You are right this is @7 years out, but could move quickly because this is a "CLEAN" resource. (Very low uranium/thorium & Open Pit). They already have a working relationship with the U.S. govt. agencies & Hong Kong Fidelity has a stake in this company already @.24/share.
IMHO - La Paz/Halleck Creek has the potential to become "THE" largest U.S.
combined REE resource (with Scandium kickers) very soon once all drilling is completed & an NI-43-101 is updated & independently verified.
Enviromental, permits etc... will take time & I do not know how well received the local folks are yet? All that being said, this is one to watch.

American Rare Earths Ltd Teams Up for Defense R&D: Rare Earths Processing
https://www.kentuckynewera.com/technology/article_dab41a5f-c0d7-57fd-a568-70f06450a711.html
PHOENIX, June 29, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- American Rare Earths Limited (ASX:ARR, OTCQB:ARRNF, FSE:1BHA) (the Company) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned US subsidiary, Western Rare Earths, is the sole industry member of a consortium led by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) that has been awarded research funding to develop scalable, bio-based separation and purification of Rare Earths elements. The team was awarded an initial $4M USD (A$5.576M) in Phase 1. An additional $9M USD (A$12.547M) may be added in follow-on phases, based on performance. Feedstocks from the La Paz Rare Earth Project and Halleck Creek Rare Earth Project, both 100% Company owned, have been provided to researchers.
The funding provides research support for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s (DARPA) Environmental Microbes as a BioEngineering Resource (EMBER) program. EMBER has charged LLNL to lead the consortium in developing a biotechnology-based separation and purification strategy for Rare Earth Elements (REEs) from under-utilized domestic sources. The program aims to deliver multiple capabilities such as the separation of REE mixtures into individual elements.
Chris Gibbs, MD/CEO of American Rare Earths Limited, said, “We are honored to have our US technical and management team collaborate with the leading researchers on cutting-edge technologies. Rare Earths separation and purification would benefit from a new tech stack combined with traditional mineral processing approaches. A renewable, reusable, sustainable approach will meet fewer permitting hurdles.”
Consortium of Game Changers
The consortium is advancing the bio-based process using the REE-selective LanModulin protein, discovered by Prof. Joseph Cotruvo of Penn State University. The sustainable, renewable, reusable capabilities of LanModulin along with its simplicity of making high purity concentrations, could facilitate scaling the technology.
Collaborating institutions include Penn State University, Columbia University, Tufts University, The University of Kentucky, and Purdue University. The consortium draws on a wealth of rare earths experience in processing, separation, purification, and economic analysis. The EMBER project has provided the funding to activate world-class talent and labs as they seek to scale game changing technology.
Onshoring a Cleaner Supply Chain for National Security
DARPA outlined the EMBER program metrics to “enable new biomining methods for separation, purification, and conversion of REEs into manufacturing-ready forms. Microbes (and/or biomolecules) can be biologically engineered or adapted to bind, assimilate, and manipulate individual REEs.” “Resultant bioengineering approaches will be coupled to process engineering workflows to extract and purify REEs from domestic source materials. Demonstration of viable schemes will be supported by compelling techno-economic analyses and culminate in an aggressive, proof-of concept pilot-scale REE biomining operation.” 1
“REEs, which include the 15-element lanthanide group plus yttrium and scandium, are critical ingredients in many DoD systems: e.g., in permanent magnets for electric motors, high temperature ceramics, and lasers.” “Biomining is an alternative approach that utilizes microbes to recover metals (e.g., copper, gold) from source materials, often using redox processes to liberate the target metal from a mineral source.” 1
Unique Rare Earths Feedstocks
The Company’s projects are host to unique REE bearing mineral deposits that are exceptionally large, accessible at the surface, simple in mineralization, with high value magnet REEs (Nd, Pr, Dy, Tb) exceeding 24% of total REE content, and all 14 of the naturally occurring lanthanides present.
American Rare Earths Limited (ASX: ARR, OTCQB: ARRNF, FSE: 1BHA) is an ASX listed Australian company with assets in the growing rare earth metals sector of the United States of America, emerging as an alternative international supply chain to China's market dominance of a global rare earth market expected to expand to US$20 billion by the mid-2020s. The Company's mission is to supply Critical Materials for Renewable Energy, Green Tech, Electric Vehicles, National Security, and a Carbon-Reduced Future. Western Rare Earths (WRE) is the wholly owned US subsidiary of the Company.

My DD on the La Paz & Halleck Creek Deposits are bringing me closer to pulling the trigger on buying some shares & starting a position here. Although this is 7 years out & the Hong Kong Fidelity investment firm from China has now taken a 10% stake in the companty at .10/share.
These deposits are indeed shaping up to be the cleanest & largest OPEN PIT resources in the U.S. for REE's IMHO. I am watching this closely because this has the potential to move fast on Need.
The ORE/Minerals can be concentrated through MAGNETIC Separation increasing the grades prior to separation like Search Minerals. Several Separation methods are being employed included those under development with the U.S. Govt.

AMERICAN RARE EARTHS JOINS LEADING US RESEARCH ON ‘GREEN’ CRITICAL MINERALS RECOVERY
https://metsoa.com/american-rare-earths-joins-leading-us-research-on-green-critical-minerals-recovery/
In its latest partnership with a US Government funded R&D project, Australian-based American Rare Earths will work with leading researchers on new green, bio-based rare earths extraction, purification and separation technology.
The company’s subsidiary Western Rare Earths is supplying feedstock to scientists using a naturally occurring protein to recover high-purity rare earth elements (REEs) without harming the environment.
The collaboration is part of American Rare Earths’ (ASX:ARR) contribution as a Team Member of the US Department of Energy funded Critical Materials Institute (CMI).
It’s also a perfect fit for the company as its steps up its transition from being an explorer to producer of rare earths.
The research team plans to develop a scalable method for recovery of REEs from US-sourced allanite ore using the protein lanmodulin.
The discovery of lanmodulin by Penn State University’s Center for Critical Minerals Joseph Cotruvo enabled one-step extraction of REEs.
That’s a capability not offered by other chemical extraction methods plus it eliminates harmful solvents while offering the ability to achieve high-purity separation of certain critical REEs.
Western Rare Earths CEO Marty Weems of American Rare Earths Limited said of the collaboration: “The researchers affiliated with CMI, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, the University of Arizona and Penn State’s Center for Critical Minerals are the competitive advantage for the US in its mission to responsibly secure this supply chain.
“The prospect of a sustainable, reusable, high-efficiency process that could extract, separate and purify scandium, yttrium and individual, high-value, rare-earth magnet metals could revolutionize the industry.”
The low level of uranium and thorium is a notable advantage of American Rare Earths’ allanite feedstock. These radioactive elements commonly co-occur in many other REE feedstocks and pose environmental and economic burdens due to their radioactivity.
It’s also contributed to American Rare Earths being asked to supply feedstock for the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s Rare Earth Elements (REE) bioengineering research program.
American Rare Earths CEO and Managing Director Chris Gibbs said: “As we develop our world class mining projects our strategy is to also focus on new and disruptive technologies while building our processing and refining capabilities.
“We are excited by the progress being made and I congratulate the US team on their work towards our vision of transformation into a leading vertically integrated, sustainable supplier of minerals essential for a renewable future.”
This latest research initiative comes after a bi-partisan piece of legislation was introduced into the US Senate that would force defence contractors to stop buying rare earths from China by 2026 and use the Pentagon to create a stockpile of the strategic minerals.
Rare earths and other critical minerals are used in many devices vital to a technologically advanced economy and national security.
The primary rare earth elements American Rare Earths is focused on are magnetic minerals neodymium and praseodymium (NdPr). The combination of these rare earths is a vital component of high- powered magnets used in a wide range of applications, from the rapidly expanding electric vehicle market through to air conditioning units.
Scandium is additionally used in high-strength, lightweight aluminium–scandium alloys that offer fuel savings when used in aircraft and vehicles. Scandia-stabilized zirconia (ScSZ) can also be an attractive alternative to yttrium due to its high conductivity and excellent stability.

Q&A With StockPal - American Rare Earths (ASX:ARR)
American Rare Earths builds on critical minerals vision in December quarter
https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/companies/news/971783/american-rare-earths-builds-on-critical-minerals-vision-in-december-quarter-971783.html
ARR’s vision
Speaking to the outlook for ARR and the business’ plans for the March quarter, Gibbs stated:
“With US projects and US leadership presence, American Rare Earths is well-positioned to grow the company and be at the forefront of the US rare earth industry transformation.
“For the past two years, the US team have been working diligently with various research and development (R&D) partners to establish our presence with a number of the rare earth innovation efforts.
“It’s our vision to be more than just a mining company but rather a technology leader in this space: vertically integrated and one day producing the rare earth metals that are critical to our future.
“It’s our strategy to not only focus on developing our rare earth mining projects that have some of the cleanest ore in the world but to work collaboratively with R&D leaders building processing and refining capability, using new, disruptive, green and clean technologies that will provide critical minerals for future generations.
“To achieve our vision, we are adopting a ‘book end’ strategy under the umbrella of ESG to create shareholder value and reduce time to market.
In a bid to close the supply chain gap, ARR plans to:
Developing its major projects through all stages of mine development to produce a rare earth concentrate; and
Work with R&D leaders and partners to develop processing and refining capability to produce a metal product.
The quarter ahead
ARR has lined up several key initiatives to complete in the March quarter and claims it is well capitalised to deliver on its initiatives.
These include:
Drilling at the La Paz Project’s new Southwest area next month, with the goal to significantly increase the 170million-tonne JORC resource;
Commencing a maiden drill program at Halleck Creek and continue exploration activities;

US bill would block defence firms from using Chinese rare earths
Bipartisan bill aims to break China’s control over the rare-earths industry and revive the sector in the US.
A bipartisan piece of legislation to be introduced in the US Senate would force defence contractors to stop buying rare earths from China by 2026 and use the Pentagon to create a permanent stockpile of the strategic minerals.
The bill, sponsored by Senators Tom Cotton, an Arkansas Republican, and Mark Kelly, an Arizona Democrat, is expected to be introduced on Friday, the Reuters news agency reported. It is the latest in a string of US legislation seeking to thwart China’s near-total control over the sector.
It essentially uses the Pentagon’s purchase of billions of dollars worth of fighter jets, missiles and other weapons as leverage to require contractors to stop relying on China and, by extension, support the revival of US rare-earths production.
Rare earths are a group of 17 metals that, after processing, are used to make magnets found in electric vehicles, weaponry and electronics. While the United States created the industry in World War II and US military scientists developed the most widely used type of rare-earth magnet, China has slowly grown to control nearly the entire sector during the past 30 years.
The United States has only one rare-earths mine and has no capacity to process rare-earth minerals. The US relies on China for about 80 percent of its rare-earths imports.
In December, China consolidated several of its key producers to create a behemoth that will strengthen its control over the global industry it has dominated for decades.
The new entity, China Rare-Earths Group, will speed the development of mines in the country’s south, state media reported.
“Ending American dependence on China for rare-earths extraction and processing is critical to building up the US defence and technology sectors,” Cotton told Reuters.
The senator, who sits on the Senate’s Armed Forces and Intelligence committees, described China’s evolution into the global rare-earths leader as “simply a policy choice that the United States made,” adding that he hoped fresh policies would loosen Beijing’s grip.
In the past, the US has worked with other nations at the World Trade Organisation to try and compel China to export more rare earths amid a global shortage.
Known as the Restoring Essential Energy and Security Holdings Onshore for Rare Earths Act of 2022, the bill would codify and make permanent the Pentagon’s ongoing stockpiling of the materials. China temporarily blocked rare earth exports to Japan in 2010 and has issued vague threats it could do the same to the United States.
To build that reserve, though, the Pentagon buys supply in part from China, a paradox that Senate staffers hope will abate in time.
The rare-earths production process can be highly pollutive, part of the reason why it grew unpopular in the United States. Ongoing research is attempting to make the process cleaner.
Cotton said he has talked to various US executive agencies about the bill, but declined to say if he had talked with President Joe Biden or the White House.
“This is an area in which Congress will lead, because many members have been concerned about this very topic, regardless of party,” he said.
The bill, which the sponsors expect could be folded into Pentagon funding legislation later this year, offers no direct support for the nascent US rare-earths sector.
Instead, it requires Pentagon contractors to stop using Chinese rare earths within four years, allowing waivers only in rare situations. Defence contractors would be required to immediately say where they source the minerals.
Those requirements “should encourage more domestic [rare-earths] development in our country,” Cotton said.
US-China tensions
In the past two years, the Pentagon has given grants to companies trying to resume US rare-earth processing and magnet production, including MP Materials Corp, Australia’s Lynas Rare Earth Ltd, TDA Magnetics Inc and Urban Mining Co.
Kelly, a former astronaut and a member of the Senate’s Armed Services and Energy committees, said the bill should “strengthen America’s position as a global leader in technology by reducing our country’s reliance on adversaries like China for rare-earth elements”.
The bill only applies to weapons, not other equipment the US military buys.
Additionally, the US trade representative would be required to investigate whether China is distorting the rare-earths market and recommend whether trade sanctions are needed.
When asked if such a step could be seen as antagonistic by Beijing, Cotton said, “I don’t think the answer to Chinese aggression or Chinese threats is to continue to subject ourselves to Chinese threats.”

https://newsdeli.com/2021/11/24/rare-earths-company-lists-on-us-stock-exchange/
PHOENIX, AZ, UNITED STATES, November 24, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ — American Rare Earths Limited (“the Company”) (ASX: ARR; OTCQB: ARRNF; FSE: 1BHA) announces that it has successfully applied for its common shares to be trading on the OTC Markets, “QB” level, a US trading platform operated by the OTC Markets Group in New York. The listing of the Company’s common shares on the OTCQB was recently approved by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). The Company will also apply to the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) for DTC eligibility which would greatly simplify the process for North American investors trading the Company’s common shares.
Due to increasing international demand for equity in the Company, Canaccord Genuity successfully executed proceedings to make a market in the Company’s securities which now trade on the OTC Markets Group platform. OTC is the largest Alternative Trading System in the US, with over 11,000 securities quoted on that market. Cross-listing to the OTCQB offers the Company the opportunity to build visibility, expand liquidity and diversify its shareholder base in the US on an established public market. Now it is possible for US and Canadian investors to participate with the company as it develops its US based rare earths mineral deposits.
As American Rare Earths continues to have its primary listing on the Australian Securities Exchange, streamlined market standards enable the Company to utilise its ASX reporting and make its information available in the US. The Company confirms that admission to the OTCQB is non-dilutive because no additional capital is required to be raised and no new shares will be issued in conjunction with inclusion on the OTCQB.
Managing Director Chris Gibbs states, “As the Company’s most advanced projects are in the US, providing American investors with the opportunity to participate was a logical step. Doing it in a non-dilutive manner only adds liquidity and strength to the positions of our existing shareholders.”
Andrew Reilly and the team at Rimon Law acted as the Company’s sponsor. Investors can find quotes and market information for the Company at https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/ARRNF/overview.
This ASX announcement was approved and authorized by Mr. Chris Gibbs, Managing Director.

2022 Exploration Drilling Planned for La Paz Southwest - Exploration Target of 742 - 928 Million Tonnes Projected
https://americanrareearths.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/20210929-ARR-ASX-La-Paz-SW-Drilling-and-Exploration-Target-FINAL.pdf
Highlights
Eight core drill holes are planned for Q1 2022 to explore lateral and vertical extent in the new southwest area. An Exploration Target of approximately 742 - 928 million tonnes of Rare Earths mineralized rocks was identified in the La Paz Rare Earths project’s southwest area, with an average TREO Grade of 350 - 400ppm and Scandium Oxide grade of 20 - 24.5ppm.
New Exploration Target identified in addition to the La Paz Rare Earth project’s recently upgraded 170MT Resource.167 Hectares with 20 claims added to La Paz Project area in support of exploration targets
American Rare Earths Limited (ASX: ARR) ("the Company") plans on drilling eight (8) diamond drill holes across the La Paz Southwest Project area. The core holes will provide geological data about the lateral and vertical extent of mineralisation in the area. 900 meters of diamond core drilling is planned for Q1 2022.
This drilling will be performed with geological mapping on 20 additional mining claims staked in July 2021,covering 167 hectares.
Based on recent exploration, the Company has compiled a JORC exploration target report “Exploration Target Summary of the La Paz Southwest Project Area” (Report). The Report provides an overview of the geology,
results of surface sampling, and exploration target tonnage estimates in Laz Paz Southwest. The Report also outlined the 20 additional claims and the proposed diamond core drilling.
The La Paz Southwest is part of the La Paz Rare Earth Project (LPRE Project) project owned by La Paz Rare Earth, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Western Rare Earths, Inc (WRE), a wholly owned subsidiary of American Rare Earths, Limited. This announcement furthers the exploration and development of large areas of Rare Earths enriched rocks at the La Paz project. If the exploration drilling is successful, ARR plans todevelop the La Paz southwest area in conjunction with the La Paz maiden resource area located approximately two kilometres to the Northeast. Mr Keith Middleton, Managing Director of ARR states, “In 2019 we noted that the La Paz Rare Earth Project “excels by its sheer volume” to quote technical reports available and suspected there was an opportunity to develop the asset further. Today, we can say that the La Paz project continues to exceed our expectations and provides huge potential and future flexibility to develop the La Paz REE project. The Exploration Target and exploration drilling are the first steps in our plans to define extensive mineable resources.”
Thanks for posting this link alisher! I will make it a "sticky"...
I am closely wathing this project right now. I have not made an investment here, however the more DD I have been doing the more I like it!

American Rare Earths moves toward supplying domestic need in US for critical minerals
American Rare Earths Ltd (ASX:ARR) managing director Keith Middleton has outlined the company’s mission to supply critical minerals to renewable energy, green tech, electric vehicles, national security and a carbon-reduced future in the US.
At the Proactive Critical Minerals Webinar this week Middleton discussed the pure-play rare earths exploration company’s portfolio of North American projects containing high-value magnetic metals and scandium.
Through these projects, including the advanced La Paz Project in Arizona, the company aims to help satisfy the USA’s growing intention to establish a domestic critical minerals supply chain.

American Rare Earths' subsidiary supplies feedstock to researchers seeking funding from new US REE bioengineering research program
https://www.proactiveinvestors.com/companies/news/962848/american-rare-earths--subsidiary-supplies-feedstock-to-researchers-seeking-funding-from-new-us-ree-bioengineering-research-program-962848.html
WRE is providing some of the very few REE mineral deposit feedstocks that qualify for use in the program.
American Rare Earths' subsidiary supplies feedstocks to researchers seeking funding from US new REE bioengineering research program
American Rare Earth’s wholly-owned US subsidiary Western Rare Earths (WRE) is supplying feedstock to researchers seeking funding from the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s (DARPA) new Rare Earth Elements (REE) bioengineering research program.
WRE is providing some of the very few REE mineral deposit feedstocks that qualify for use in the program.
It has provided REE (mineralized rocks or ore) to three research teams, including researchers from US national laboratories and elite American 'Research One' universities applying to the Environmental Microbes as a Bio-Engineering Resource (EMBER) program.
Valued potential feedstock provider
American Rare Earths’ managing director Keith Middleton said: “We are delighted by these potential opportunities cultivated by our US-based Leadership Team.
“Having the domestic team in place early in our journey enabled relationships with key US REE researchers in universities and the national labs to be developed.
“Timely engagement with US Government programs has put the company in the mix as a valued potential provider of REE feedstock to the emerging US REE domestic supply chain, which has become a critical objective of successive US administrations.
“We believe that the EMBER program’s focus on a strategy for REEs using domestic sources is an interesting indicator.
No competitor
“We are not aware of a competitor that is supplying multiple teams to this program.
“This provides us with a point of difference and we like our chances of potentially more than one team being awarded significant funding for their research using our mineralized ore.”
Two primary benefits
WRE is providing some in-kind donations of its staff’s services to the research teams.
In return for its participation and support of this program, WRE expects two primary benefits.
Initially, the research teams may be able to help WRE isolate the most effective and environmentally friendly extraction methods for its REE mineralized ore.
Secondly, WRE expects rights to use any new technology developed by the teams it supports, potentially saving the company money in the future by domestically processing, separating, and purifying rather than offshoring to China.
New REE supply chain
DARPA is encouraging US scientists to engineer a new REE supply chain by utilizing bioengineering or 'biomining' approaches through the EMBER program.
Biomining is more environmentally friendly than the toxic processing method synonymous with the Chinese REE industry. It will also facilitate domestic REE separation and purification, critical to lessening US vulnerability to and dependence on China.
The US has only one active REE mine, which is in Mountain Pass, California, and has operated intermittently since the 1960s but still depends on China for processing.
Given these domestic gaps, securing a US-based REE supply chain is a longstanding bipartisan priority.
This focus, coupled with multiple presidential executive orders, has resulted in hundreds of millions of dollars in funding support through the Department of Energy (DOE) and DOD.
Critical for renewable energy
WRE CEO Marty Weems said: “For more than a year, we have quietly cultivated supportive relationships with top researchers in the REE processing field.
“We are excited by the opportunity to contribute to securing US domestic supply chains of rare earths, and doing so in innovative, environmentally responsible and cost-effective ways,
“This program is perfectly congruent with our Environmental and Sustainability goals.
REEs are critical to the renewable energy, reduced carbon future and success in this program using our uniquely non-radioactive feedstocks could make the researcher’s jobs easier and eliminate the need to manage radioactive waste.”
EMBER program
EMBER has attracted dozens of world-class researchers working to revolutionize the 80-year-old industry.
WRE is providing some of the very few mineral deposit feedstocks that qualify for use in the program.
WRE feedstocks from Arizona and Wyoming are unique in that they are both non-radioactive and give access to almost all 17 metals in a single source.
Unlike most other REE mineral deposits, these feedstocks from WRE are not plagued with the radioactive element Thorium.

IMHO-
The LA PAZ resource has the potential to supply @1 Billion Tons of REE's, along with a rather substantial Scandium assessment. I have not taken a position here, as the re-emergence of this project is in the early stages of development.
However... The size & scope of the area; along with the lack of contaminants (Uranium/Thorium etc..), & the fact that this could be an "Open Pit" & fill project... Warrants keeping an eye here into 2022...

Australian explorer focused on cementing itself as a key player in the development of critical high value scandium and rare earths in mining friendly Arizona in the US.
American Rare Earths Limited (ARR) made its mark as the only ASX-listed company with exposure to the US rare earths market following its acquisition of the La Paz Scandium and Rare Earths Project in August 2019. The project, which has the potential to be the largest rare earth project in North America, contains an existing NI 43-101 resource.
The company is focused on building scale to meet critical US demand, and in August 2020 expanded its portfolio to include the Laramie Rare Earths Project in Wyoming.
ARR has an investment in Cobalt Blue Holdings’ (ASX:COB). The Company continues to hold rights to a Net Smelter Return (NSR) royalty of 2% on all cobalt production from the Thackaringa Project which was sold to Cobalt Blue Holdings Limited in February 2020. In addition, holding a A$3M Promissory Note (PN).
The La Paz Rare Earths + Scandium Project was founded in August 2019 with the initial US claims purchase in La Paz County, Arizona, approximately 105 miles northwest of Phoenix and 16 miles northeast of Bouse. The road transects the claims into southwestern and northeastern portions. With a contiguous footprint of over 218 federal lode mining claims over approximately 4,503 acres plus an Arizona state exploration permit for 640 acres, the increasing energy surrounding the La Paz Rare Earths Project has resulted in an assemblage that has the potential to be the largest rare earths project in North America. The full 5,143 +/- acres and considerable surrounding area lies fully in the Opportunity Zone and New Market Tax Credit Zone of Census Tract ID: 04012020100.
In addition to the vast area of claim control held in this Project, it is bolstered by excellent local infrastructure, including electricity, water, and gas lines all within 11km of its western boundary. Additionally, this project has the local asset of a skilled local workforce that is supported by a state of Arizona training mine and workforce development incentives. The location is in a non-conflict jurisdiction, earning a top 10 rank of 83 global mining jurisdictions by the Fraser Institute. Furthermore, the vast network of transport routes optimizes production and distribution channels, and provides an additional sense of safety and security to the local community. Located within the structural domain known as the Harcuvar metamorphic core complex within the Basin and Range Province, the La Paz area is also known for favorable weather conditions that allow for year-round mining and exploration.
By leveraging Arizona’s history of being mining-friendly, our various stakeholders have a vested interest in preserving the area with responsible mining requirements that can meet the growing needs for rare earths as well as maintain respect for the land. Unearthing penalty elements that have plagued rare earths projects globally, such as radioactive thorium and uranium, is also kept at a minimum. The radioactive content per ton of raw ore is 30X higher in a typical rare earths project.
Western Rare Earths (WRE), the wholly-owned subsidiary of Australian traded American Rare Earths Limited (ASX: ARR; OTCQB:ARRNF), is an exploration company established to acquire and develop the advanced La Paz Rare Earths and Scandium Project in Arizona, the Halleck Creek Rare Earths Project in Wyoming, and the Searchlight Heavy Rare Earths Project in Nevada. Additional Critical Minerals opportunities may be added to the platform.
WRE is focused on alleviating a supply deficit hindering the rapid growth of electric vehicles (EVs), the renewable energy revolution, and high-tech defense industries. While taking advantage of government push in the US, the EU, East Asia, and India, WRE will benefit from the pulling market trends of double-digit compound annual growth rates (CAGRs) for EV motors and wind turbines. WRE is in position to be the leader in planning and executing carbon-negative, environmentally responsible mining projects by leveraging world-class technical teams and experienced diverse leadership. We are collaborating with leading universities and national laboratories on research to develop disruptive sustainable biotech processing systems for Critical Minerals. With our La Paz Rare Earths Project location, WRE is on-shoring high-paying jobs to an Opportunity Zone location that is also eligible for New Markets Tax Credits (NMTC).
WRE is supplying feedstocks to researchers who are seeking funding from DARPA’s new Rare Earths bioengineering research program.
