There are encouraging results from drilling areas of the Lushan Project that were not previously explored
CHENGDU, SICHUAN, CHINA, April 10, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Yaan Xinkuang (ISIN: CN8824123907), a Chinese mineral development company that focuses on critical metals and minerals having increasing demand in modern technologies and which is currently in the advanced stages of development, today announced that drilling at the Lushan Project may have discovered a new rare earths orebody in the Southwest region, which is about 5-8 kilometers southwest of the maiden resource and has never been explored before.
The most recent drilling findings have exceeded the company’s expectations, with mineralization discovered deeper in select holes at previously undrilled depths. All of this suggests that Yaan Xinkuang’s indicated and inferred resources could be greatly upgraded.
There is also evidence of rising demand for high-value magnetic and heavy rare earths, which are utilized in a variety of high-demand technologies like electric vehicles (EVs), wind turbines, air conditioners/refrigerators, phones, and important national defense industrial technology.
This discovery is notable for having remarkably low radioactive elements such as thorium and uranium, which is a key benefit for a developing rare earths producer. The presence of high-value scandium has also been confirmed at the site, with grades that are consistent with previous surface sampling. Scandium is a critical mineral, which makes it extremely valuable. It is used to make aluminum items lighter, stronger, corrosion-resistant, and heat-resistant.
The economic impact on the project might be substantial if the scandium reduces to commercially viable grades during the rare earth elements purification and metallurgy. All indications point to the resource being open at depth and laterally, which bodes well for a significant resource upgrade. Yaan Xinkuang now feels confident enough to establish more claims and conduct additional exploration to ascertain the extent of the rare earth elements mineralization.
