Chico! Thank you for finding this!
"In a recent InvestorIntel interview, Tracy Weslosky spoke with Greg Andrews, President, CEO, and Director of Search Minerals Inc. (TSXV: SMY | OTCQB: SHCMF) about Search Minerals’ ‘sprint’ towards production as they work towards strengthening the North American rare earths supply chain.
In this InvestorIntel interview, Greg Andrews said that Search Minerals recently signed an MoU for an offtake agreement with USA Rare Earth, thus ensuring that it has sales and revenues when production begins. He went on to say that Search Minerals is progressing towards announcing an updated PEA and explained why the updated PEA is expected to be robust and economic at the current pricing of rare earths. With a loyal shareholder base and strong federal, provincial, local government and indigenous support, Greg told InvestorIntel that Search Minerals is progressing well towards its goal of going further down the rare earths supply chain to produce magnet metals and alloys."
PM, Chico, all: Well, this is a good thing! Higher share price, less share dilution in any eventual deal! All it takes is one bank or brokerage to make a buy recommendation to their portfolio area..... Lets hope.
LM. Nice! Sold a few shares at $.96 US!
Paying some minor bills. Hopefully next year paying Major bills!
Elysee reports a $11,123 loss for the nine months ended 9/30/21
https://www.juniorminingnetwork.com/junior-miner-news/press-releases/2699-tsx-venture/elc/109933-elysee-announces-loss-for-the-nine-months-ended-september-30-2021-of-11-123.html
Mr. Guido Cloetens reports:
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 8, 2021) - Elysee Development Corp. (TSXV: ELC) (FSE: QLDN) wishes to announce its unaudited financial results for the three months ("Q3 2021") and nine months ended September 30, 2021. All dollar amounts are in Canadian funds.
The third quarter of 2021 was a difficult quarter for gold and silver miners as evidenced by a decline of 17.6% in the world's leading tracker of junior gold and silver miners, the GDXJ, during Q3. The impact on Elysee's investment portfolio was evident, resulting in a loss of $2,113,923 for the three month period ended September 30, 2021. Unrealized losses on marketable securities of $2,405,228 during the quarter were only partially offset by realized gains of $292,287.
After general and administrative expenses of $279,891, and taking into account transaction costs and interest and dividend income, the Company incurred a loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 of $11,123 ($0.00 per share). Realized gains during the period of $3,818,591 outweighed unrealized losses of $3,657,636.
After paying out a three cent per share dividend for fiscal 2020 (a total of $833,178) in March 2021, the Company's Net Asset Value* ("NAV") decreased from $18.4 million on December 31, 2020 to $18 million ($0.64 per share) on September 30, 2021.
Guido Cloetens, the Chairman and CEO of Elysee, stated: "The leading trackers for gold and silver miners, the GDX and GDXJ, were down 18% and 29% respectively for the first nine months of 2021, with the TSX Global Mining index also down by 8%. During that same time period we were able to hold the course, with a loss of only $11,123 for the nine month period, by offsetting unrealized losses in our portfolio resulting from the market downturn with realized gains of $3,818,591 and reducing general and administrative expenses by over $70,000 compared to the same period a year prior. There has been a significant recovery in the indexes and the overall market for junior mining stocks since the start of October which may indicate that we reached a bottom at the end of Q3. As of October 31, 2021 our portfolio has recovered approximately $800,000 of the unrealized loss incurred during Q3 2021. With over $2.7 Million in cash on hand, we remain confident in our ability to pay an annual dividend for 2021 in Q1 2022, in accordance with our dividend policy, subject to market conditions at that time."
All. Any European posters. Soar Partners Deutsche Goldmesse in- mining conference in Frankfurt, Germany on November 12. Anyone going?
They focus is gold and silver mining, and Niocorp is not presenting, but I wonder if there will be any discussion of REEs at the conference since they are a metal commodity. (At least one speaker runs a commodity fund.)

Chico; Much larger than my estimate! Good deal! Thanks for posting!
The $200 million shelf filing is definitely being reported. This should attract some interest.
As we would expect share prices does not go up on anticipated possible share dilution.
Next few weeks: waiting for the REE figures, updated PEA. The irritatingly slow to develop Financing package, before or after the Annual Meeting?

Chico; I am glad they announced Mr. Ashburn's retirement before they announced the REE figures. (I am assuming that they will be positive.)
Better positive news after perceived negative.
I assume we will see a new VP, Secretary, and General Counsel announced at the annual meeting! (Ms. Ferenga? Or someone else?)
Chico! My up percentage is higher for my Search shares than my Niocorp shares at this point. (They are both up.)
Day high is $.2679US, which Almost triggered a partial share limit sell order I had out there. I may have to set it higher!
Chico; Thank you!

Chico; All: Update on Enduro from Spotlight mining!
https://spotlightmining.com/blog/project-of-the-week-enduro-metals/
"This week, Enduro Metals (TSXV: ENDR; OTC: ENDMF; FSE: SOG) made it clear why Newmont Lake is their flagship property. Hosted in the so-called Golden Triangle of British Columbia, the claim is home to 4 mineralized systems associated with porphyry copper (Cu) - gold (Au) mineralization (Fig. 1). With new data from Burgundy Ridge, the exploration team has announced the confirmation of the existence an alkalic porphyry system from a deep core containing an interval of more than 300 m of ore (0.7% copper equivalent, CuEq). This week, we’re digging deeper on the Burgundy Ridge project - the newest porphyry discovery in the Golden Triangle."
snip
"In terms of continuing exploration, the infrastructure around the Burgundy Ridge project is well established and expanding. Two nearby airfields, as well as previously established mining operations in the district, make this an ideal exploration project for the Enduro Metals team. The development of a winter road is underway, connecting the claim area to the provincial highway. This will allow Enduro to conduct future exploration earlier and at much lower costs than previous campaigns (helicopters are expensive, trucks are cheaper!). In addition to the new road, Enduro is designing and building a new water supply system to feed diamond drill rigs up to 3km away in all conditions. The continued expansion of the infrastructure will facilitate the growth of this project as activity ramps up.
The Burgundy Ridge project, and the associated mineralization at the McLymont, Chachi, and Cuba projects on the same property offer an incredibly exciting opportunity for Cu-Au exploration and investment opportunities. It’s not every day a team has such good news from their drill cores - and it’s hard to undervalue such long intervals of ore. Is it the next Galore Creek? Let’s not jump the smoking gun just yet, but stay tuned as we get more news from Enduro Metals!"

Chico237,Douginil; If you own UURAF and VML is supplying their feedstocks you don't quite own the stock but your Canadian Traded company at least benefits from their mining activity.
I looked at ASX: VML in the past, but its a pain purchasing stocks on the ASX. My brokerage charges a $50 fee for the currancy exchange and you are sleeping when they are trading.
From that experience it would be more efficent to own UURAF. (Which I did for a long time before moving the money into one a couple of other jr. Miners that you both know.)
Chico; Hey buddy, thanks! Appreciate all your information and analysis!
It looks like the North American Rare Earths mining sector is getting serious with its supply chain agreements!
SHCMF is currently up 5.38% at $0.1499 US.
If it drops again I may try to increase my postion before the annual Meeting November 4.
BigAl; Thanks again RE your Article on USA RareEarths collaboration with Search Minerals, Also found it posted here!
Search Minerals and USA Rare Earth deepen relationship
"Snip...USA Rare Earth is executing a mine-to-magnet strategy of bringing back fully-integrated domestic production of rare earth permanent magnets to the US. Once operational, the plant will initially produce 2 000 t/y of high-performance magnets.
Search has significant resources of neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, and terbium at Deep Fox and Foxtrot, which will be complementary to the USA Rare Earth Round Top Mountain critical minerals and heavy rare earths project, in Texas."
See Chico237's posts for some good information and analysis on Search Minerals!
**Everyone should do their own Due Diligence before investing!
Chico my friend! S.P. Nice move up since this announcement! I hope that we learn preliminary results of their drilling program before the Annual Meeting on November 4th.

http://searchminerals.ca/news/news-releases/search-minerals-commissions-combined-foxtrot-deep-fox-resource-preliminary-economic-assessment
September 27th, 2021
Vancouver, B.C. September 27, 2021 – Search Minerals Inc. (TSXV: SMY | OTCQB: SHCMF) (“Search” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has commissioned a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA 2022”) report on the combined Deep Fox/Fox Trot project with a target date of completion of Q1 2022.
The completion of an updated NI 43-101 Mineral Resource estimates for Deep Fox and Foxtrot and completion of PEA 2022 are important next steps as the Company accelerates its “Sprint to Production”. The PEA 2022 will also provide our environmental consultants the essential information required to update and submit the new plan for the Environmental Impact Statement. We have been completing some baseline studies this year, which will form part of our submission.
The PEA 2022 will benefit from the following improvements.
Increased Material from Deep Fox Resource
PEA 2022 will incorporate the results of the 7000 m drilling program completed at Deep Fox in 2021.
The combination of the Deep Fox and Foxtrot resources will potentially allow for an increase in production rate to 2,000 tonnes per day compared to the 2016 PEA (PEA 2016) on Foxtrot alone.
Assays from Deep Fox have shown higher grades of the key rare earth elements used in the permanent magnet market (Neodymium, Praseodymium, Dysprosium and Terbium) as compared to Foxtrot.
Metallurgical Process Optimization
The optimization of the Direct Extraction Process in two pilot plant programs has resulted in increased recoveries on our key elements (Nd, Pr, Dy, Tb).
The introduction of magnetic separation into the mineral processing flowsheet will:
produce an iron ore concentrate by-product,
concentrate the rare earths in 15-27% of the ore mass, resulting in a smaller extraction plant and,
open the possibility of making a zirconium/hafnium by-product.
Produce a mixed rare earth carbonate to supply the separation facility.
New grinding and magnetic beneficiation added to the flowsheet to optimize capital and operating costs.
Rare Earth Element Price Increases
Rare earth prices have increased significantly over the past year, and the upward trending price escalations are expected to continue.
Current and future price projections (Adamas Intelligence) will form the basis for the PEA economic analysis.

Big Al!; Thanks for posting! Was not showing on the Searchminerals Website when I looked this AM!
Chico; Thanks! The PEA and updated REE figures...
Looking forward to its release prior to or at the Annual General Meeting on November 4th! Lets hope for additional information on any potential partners at that time!
Trofee, its up 4.29% today.
Options 235,000 shares @ .37 (Cdn) expire on November 9 2021. Certainly in the money.
No, there is not a lot of up and down. Its an investment that goes up slowly over time but also produces dividends. Not exciting, but a good investment company.

Chico; Something indirectly related to REE Supply chain.
https://www.wisfarmer.com/story/news/2021/09/28/china-halts-phosphate-exports-fertilizer-prices-expected-soar/5907300001/
China is halting Phosphate exports...Why would this matter, this is a farming problem right? It is possible to extract REEs from some phosphate minerals. (I think most people here know this.)
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1342937X14003128
I think that this is only a minor source of REES...at least at the current time...so not a major concern, but it does suggest a global tightening of a dual use raw material by China. I do not know if China is deliberately attempting to control REE supply by limiting this potential source, but it would make sense. (Along with needing to deal with an agricultural shortfall!)
Phosphate/monzanite sands. I think Rare Earth Salts one county over in Beatrice NE works with phosphate based REE separation. (Private company, no relation to NioCorp that I am aware of.)
(Photos of their managment at:
https://www.birdiebreeze.net/copy-of-board-of-directors
Any of them on the NioCorp tour I wonder?)
All; https://www.wisfarmer.com/story/news/2021/09/28/china-halts-phosphate-exports-fertilizer-prices-expected-soar/5907300001/
Monzanite sands are a source of Phosphate for fertilizers and rare earths.

Chico; Rare earth metals quoted on a scrap metal website.
https://www.scrapmonster.com/metal-prices/rare-earth
It is interesting to note that other than 2 that list warehouses in Rotterdam, every other REE lists the origin as "China".
(Their source was "https://en.institut-seltene-erden.de/" )
I will be posting this to that other board.
The US and Canada really need to develop that REE secure supply chain! Search fits right into that chain, with surface mining, Canadian Government and Province support, access to unilities and transportation, and a developed plan for beginning mining next year or 2023
A.O.: Thanks to all those who attended and for the "After action" reports.

GE11; I hope its his way of saying we will be starting work this winter, you really do NOT want anyone to have to show up in the Midwest in January, skitter around on a bunch of frozen NE county highways in order to stand around in suits in the mud for a speech and a 10 minute formal ground breaking in the snow!
Just idle speculation on my part.
