  • The Ucore advantage
  • Ucore Rare Metals Inc. is a well-funded development-phase mining company focused on establishing rare metal resources with near term production potential. With multiple projects across North America, Ucore’s primary focus is the 100% owned Bokan – Dotson Ridge REE property in Alaska. The Bokan – Dotson ridge REE project is located 60 km southwest of Ketchikan, Alaska and 140 km northwest of Prince Rupert, British Columbia and has direct ocean access to the western seaboard and the Pacific Rim, a significant advantage in developing near term production facilities and limiting the capital costs associated with mine construction.
  • The Bokan property is particularly enriched with heavy rare earth elements, including the critical elements Dysprosium, Terbium and Yttrium. Approximately 40% (by weight) of the rare earth elements contained on the Dotson Ridge property are heavy rare earths elements, as disclosed in the Company’s NI43-101 compliant resource estimate, released in March of 2011.
  • The Ucore Advantage is clear:
  • • Highest Grade Heavy Rare Earth Deposit in U.S. (NI-43-101 Compliant)
  • • Short Prospective Timeline to Production: Estimated at 3 Years
  • • Excellent Logistics: Only REE Deposit Worldwide on Immediate Deep Water Access; Accessible Labour and Prospective Power
  • • Anomalous Skew Towards Dy, Tb, Y; Among the most Critical High Demand HREE’s
  • • Located in Alaska; Among the World’s Leading Mine Friendly Jurisdictions
  • • Advanced Metallurgy and Separation Regimes Already Established
  • • Excellent Geopolitical Support (Local; State; Federal)
