Comments on: Rare Earths Processing Could Get A Boost In The US https://www.techmetalsresearch.net/rare-earths-processing-could-get-a-boost-in-the-us/ Commentary & analysis on rare earths and other technology metals Wed, 29 Sep 2010 10:59:35 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: my69z https://www.techmetalsresearch.net/rare-earths-processing-could-get-a-boost-in-the-us/#comment-540 Wed, 29 Sep 2010 10:59:35 +0000 https://www.techmetalsresearch.net/?p=1568#comment-540 Lindsey,,,,,for me…if anything in Colorado,,,or the others mentioned in the GAO report,,,, can’t beat this about UCU.V ….” The mineralogy in the area is believed be the largest historically documented heavy rare earth elements (HREE) deposit in the United States. “…..then for me,,,,,i wouldn’t be interested.

And these guys are movin to pre-production studies shortly.

Glta !

Right here in Colorado, alone, I know of over 30 REE occurrences, some quite significant. HREE and LREE do usually occur together: the Mountain Pass mine is but one example of many. If you want to explore for and produce REE, please contact me.

And who depends on China for their REE needs ??…..yep,,,USA.

Wonder what’ll happen down the road when the U.S. refuses to re-position aircraft carriers ???..Japan’s “stockpile” can’t sustain them AND the U.S…..even China is fearful of runin out of heavy ree’s due to their internal consumption.

I wonder if Molycorp will buy out someone being their pps is on a serious rip…..GWG does come to mind as a second attemp,,,,but i’ve always wondered about UCU also…especially being they are working on proving to be western hemisphere’s best Heavy REE play.

Oh well…..glta !

Some HREE results at UCU have been as high as 95%.

But along the GWG theme,,,,,there’s also RUU.V

Glta!

You already know what I think. VIVA GWMG!

Light rare earths are not rare. Heavy rare earths are.

Great Western Minerals group has one of the worlds highest concentration of heavy rare earths coming on line in the next year or possibly sooner from their Steemkampstral mine in SA. They also have processing plants in the US and the United Kingdom, as well as a contract to produce alloy’s with the US gov’t.

When will we see GWG (tsx symbol) begin to get the attention it deserves? For any of you who may not be aware, Molycorp tried to buy them out in ’09 unsuccessfully.

I believe investors are being led down another Goldman Sachs lane…

they don’t have goldman saches behind them but i like that.
