Results from analyses performed by Activation Labs \u2013 a highly-respected independent analytical laboratory in Ancaster, Canada \u2013\u00a0 have confirmed that the rare earth deposit has the highest reported total rare earth oxide (TREO) in the US. The discovery could be essential in furthering domestic supply chains for rare earths that will be essential in the green transition.<\/p>\n
Jim Hedrick, US Critical Materials President and former rare earth Commodity Specialist\u202fat the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), explained: \u201cWe have confirmed that Sheep Creek is the highest-grade rare earth deposit in the United States, with a multibillion-dollar resource value.\u201d<\/p>\n
