Details of Ownership:

On 1 December 2011, REM announced that it had acquired a 30% free carried interest to Bankable Feasibility Study ("BFS") of the Yangibana North Rare Earth Deposit. The exploration costs until the commencement of the BFS are therefore borne solely by Hastings Rare Metals Limited (70% owners and operator). The same terms agreed and announced on 1 December 2012 also apply to Bald Hill North, Kane's Gossan, Hook, Lion's Ear and Gossan.

David Lenigas, The Company's Chairman, commented;

"The Yangibana REE project in Australia continues to improve in scale and the results from Yangibana North will help further define the already 3.46 million tonnes at 1.73% TREO of indicated and inferred resource at the site."
