Characterization of the Hoidas Lake Rare Earth Deposit

Research was provided for assessing ten (10) boxes of core samples provided by Great Western Minerals. This provided a basis for further metallurgical testing which included beneficiation and hydrometallurgical rare earth separation and recovery The following work was done on the ten (10) core samples; a. Core and bulk composite ore preparation b. Mineralogical examinations c. X-Ray diffraction d. ICP elemental analysis e. Sulfur and carbon analysis f. SEM/EDX analysis g. Abrasion indices of a bulk blended composite sample h. Bond grindability index of bulk bended composite sample i. Reporting
