 Today I have the pleasure of speaking with David Dreisinger from Search Minerals. How are you today, David? I'm just fine. Thank you, Tracy. David, you know, I was reading a little bit about you and part of the reason we're talking to David out there is because he is considered one of the top rare earth experts in the world, which of course I know he doesn't want to talk about. So you have done what you said, 21 patents so far? Yeah, 21 US patents in different areas, including the Search Minerals patent. Well, obviously that's what we want to talk about here, David. So talk to us a little bit about the Search Minerals patent. What we figured out, Tracy, is that with our Foxtrot deposit in Labrador that we've got a type of mineral, alanite and Fergusonite minerals that carry our rare earths, which are quite reactive with acid. So we figured out a way to directly extract our rare earths from our mineral without having to go through all the usual steps of grinding, flotation, gravity and magnetic separation. So we directly treat the mineral, recover the rare earths into solution and come out with a rare earth product that goes off to the refinery. So David, I'm trying to understand that completely and obviously I don't. So if you could try and dumb this down for me and maybe some of the other investor intel audience members that don't fully understand this patent, but can you tell me, obviously this is a competitive advantage for Search Minerals? It's a huge advantage for us because we have the ability to scale to the right size to meet the market. We're planning on a thousand tons a day ore treatment. We don't have to build a huge mineral processing facility. We can just directly treat the ore, go through to this mixed rare earth oxide. We're on tide water in Labrador, got good infrastructure around us. We've got a low capital cost, a reasonable operating cost. So we're well positioned to hit the rare earth market as it matures and grows in the years ahead. Of course, for everyone out there in investor intel that may not be familiar with Search Minerals, this is a company that anyone interested in sustainability is going to love that they're one of less than a handful of sources that have actual rare earths in North America. Can you explain to us a little bit more about Search Minerals and why you join their team out of all the teams on the planet that you could have joined David because you are considered one of the top experts? Search Minerals has a huge land position in Labrador with a 70 kilometre belt full of rare earth deposits. Our first one is the Foxtrot deposit. We've got deep water fox and fox metals coming along behind. So we've got a massive inventory of rare earth occurrences across a large belt. Very interesting grades. All the magnet materials are sitting there. So this was a company that has a very large portfolio of exploration assets that need metallurgical support to develop. So I've stepped into the role of metallurgical engineer to understand how to get those rare earths out and into the marketplace. OK, but someone with your intellectual depth and experience, is this a metallurgical challenge or is this something that's so intriguing you just had to do it? David, I'd like to know why we as investors, we're following you David, why did you join Search Minerals? Search Minerals deposits are many and varied across the 70 kilometre belt. There's metallurgical solutions required to get those rare earths out of those deposits into the marketplace. So the challenge for me was to figure out a method that was economical, scalable and effective at recovering the rare earths into a final form that could be sent off to a refinery. So you obviously have this formula and you have something here for me today. Can you show me what this is? I do. I have some samples. We just run a pothole plant at SGS Lakefield, a $1.75 million pothole plant, which has taken us from ore through to the mixed rare earth oxide, which goes off to the refinery. So I brought a few show and tell samples if you'd like me to show them today. Absolutely. We've got our crushed ore, so we don't grind. We just crush to a kind of a sandy size. I'll hold this. We treat that with acid. All right, this is the ore. This is the ore. OK, fantastic. Treat that with the acid in order to dissolve the rare earths. We raise the pH to precipitate iron, so you can see sort of an orange staining on that. That's the residue after the iron comes out. That's the waste product, very nice product to send off to the dry stackable tailings. And then we precipitate our rare earths as a mixed rare earth carbonate. This is about 35% combined rare earths. So all the magnet materials are in there, lanthanum, cerium, and so on. All the heavy rare earth elements are there, but in combination. We then dissolve that up, purify the zinc. This is actually a 61% zinc material that comes out as a zinc sulfide that we can sell as a byproduct. Instead of as a waste, we sell it. And then we make a rare earth oxalate, this very nice white powder, which is now very highly purified, very low in radioactive elements, and so on. And then we calcine that. We heat it up to around 600 degrees Celsius and make a mixed rare earth oxide, which now goes off to the refinery. So this material is about 98% or 99% rare earth oxides, very low levels of impurities, an ideal product to go into the rare earth processing pipeline to make the final products. And of course, for all of you out there at Investor Intel, David Driesinger will be the kind of panelist we have discussing technological extraction processes for the technology metals on May 15th and 16th. David, thank you so much for joining us today. Thank you very much, Tracy. Thank you.
