Within the paper, Spectrum announced the following from 2009 drilling: "Examples of some of the intersections are 144 metres (m) averaging 12,924 parts per million (ppm) (1.3%) Cerium, 6,403 ppm (.64%) Lanthanum and 2,599 ppm (.26%) Neodymium in hole 2009-09 (2.2% REE over 144 m) and 72 m averaging 18,310 ppm (1.83 %) Cerium), 7,296 ppm (.73%) Lanthanum and 3,547 ppm (.35%) Neodymium in hole 2009-07 (2.92% REE over 72 m)."
