Drilling results exceeded expectations by showing continuous resource mineralisation at previously undrilled depths in all assayed drill holes , with one hole containing consistent REE grades above 300ppm REE cut- off to a depth of 122 metres . A resource upgrade is in progress with a robust size increase expected . Two holes in the previously undrilled southwest area of the La Paz project point to a potential new ore body discovery . Metallurgical testwork on original La Paz resource area rock chips produced positive results supporting additional testwork on the recently drilled diamond core . New high - grade Searchlight Rare Earth Project acquired in Nevada USA near Mountain Pass , USA's only operating REE mine . The 100 % owned Searchlight Project staked claims covering 656 hectares ( 1,620 acres ) is prospective for REE . Initial geological review and sampling program conducted on the Searchlight mining claims indicate the presence of concentrated REE . Scandium mineral rights were acquired over Split Rocks Project in Western Australia . Historical drilling identified elevated Scandium at shallow depths with 62 samples in 46 holes exceeding 50ppm at 52 metres , including three samples exceeding 100ppm three samples exceeding 90ppm at a depth of less than 24 metres . Assay results pending from confirmatory drilling recently completed at Split Rocks . Acquisition of the Halleck Creek ( formerly known as the Laramie Rare Earth Project ) from Zenith Minerals Limited is complete after final approval by the Wyoming Office of State Lands and Investments for the transfer of four state mineral leases to ARR .
