About Search
Search is a TSXV-listed company focused on creating value
through finding and developing "critical rare earth element
("CREE")" mineral assets in Labrador. CREEs (Nd, Eu, Tb, Dy, Y) have
growing demand, constrained or restricted supply and are commonly
used in innovative technologies.
Search is the discoverer of the Port Hope Simpson CREE District,
a highly prospective CREE belt located in southeast Labrador, where the Company controls a belt 70
km long and up to 8 km wide. Search owns 100% of the advanced CREE
resource called the Foxtrot Project ("Foxtrot"), and a
recently announced Foxtrot-like prospect called "Deepwater Fox". In
addition, the Company has identified more than 20 other
Foxtrot-like prospects in the District. The primary focus of Search
is to continue to advance the Foxtrot resource, while evaluating
other Foxtrot-like prospects. Several of the Foxtrot-like prospects
require exploration drilling programs and may provide additional
resources to a central processing facility that would be situated
within the District.
In addition, Search holds a number of other CREE mineral
prospects in Labrador in its
portfolio, including claims in the Red Wine Complex, in the Henley
Harbour area.
Search is led by a management team and board of directors with
proven track records in the mining industry. The Company also has
experienced geological and metallurgical teams led by Dr.
Randy Miller and Dr. David Dreisinger, respectively.
