HECLA-KILMER

Hecla-Kilmer REE-Nb-Ta PROJECt

  • Just 25km from the Otter Rapids hydroelectric power station (180MW), active rail, and paved-highways. World-class carbon free energy and infrastructure paired with overwhelming support from both local communities and first nations groups.
  • Permits and fully-funded, Neotech is planning to drill up to 5,000m to expand on the high-grade intercepts this summer, and working towards a maiden resource estimate.
  • Notable results include 361m of 1.02% TREO, 0.13% Nb, and 23.4 ppm Ta that includes 20% PMREOs
  • Significant high-grade volcanic Phosphate (7%+ intercepts) component that can be blended with lower-grade sedimentary-derived phosphates to upgrade product for export.

TREO is the summation of Ce2O3 + La2O3 + Pr2O3 + Nd2O3 + Sm2O3 + Eu2O3 + Gd2O3 + Tb2O3 + Dy2O3 + Ho2O3 + Er2O3 + Tm2O3 + Yb2O3 + Lu2O3 + Y2O3

PMREO is the sum of high-value rare earth oxides used in permanent magnet motors and turbines used in electric vehicles and wind turbines (Pr2O3 + Nd203 + Tb2O3 + Dy2O3). The % Magnet REO is this PMREO sum divided by TREO, and expressed as a percent.
