The results show highly anomalous levels of magnet metals, including Neodymium, Praseodymium, and Dysprosium, with total REE values reaching up to 5,176 ppm. Reasoning: The identification of highly anomalous REE soil samples \(up to 5,176 ppm TREE\) including critical magnet metals \(Nd, Pr, Dy\) represents a significant new exploration target at the Yellow Fox property. - Positive factor: Discovery of new REE anomalies - Positive factor: High concentrations of magnet metals \(Nd, Pr, Dy\) - Positive factor: Large scale of anomalies \(up to 1300m length\) - Positive factor: Presence of both LREE and HREE - Negative factor: No QA/QC disclosure for the specific 7-sample REE batch - Negative factor: Surface sampling is selective and may not represent average grades Facts used in scoring: 6 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: The REE anomalies represent a new type of target \(REE\) discovered within the existing exploration program targeting critical metals. Evidence · text > NEW potential rare earth discovery. **No QA/QC Disclosure** Polarity: negative Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document. Why it applies: The document states that for the specific 7-sample REE batch sent to Bureau Veritas, no standards or blanks were added. Evidence · text > No standards or blanks were added to this batch of 7 samples. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 6. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (6) ### Fact 1 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/lomiko-metals-identifies-new-rare-earth-element-ree-anomalies-at-the-yellow-fox--38559f41-132e-4a56-8655-e07ef342dbe9#fact-drill-facts-0) rare earth elements #### Identity - Commodity: rare earth elements - Region: canada\_nl - Reported Region: Newfoundland - Ticker: LMR #### Geometry - Grade: 5176 - Grade Unit: ppm #### Classification - Sample Type: surface #### Location - Location: Yellow Fox - Loc.

Sentiment reflects the extracted narrative and classification rules; it is an interpretation, not a reported measurement. Evidence quotes and context are provided where available. Missing data, low-confidence results, and review flags indicate limitations. Check the original publisher announcement before relying on an interpretation.
