Chat with Don Bubar of Avalon Advanced Materials

The Nechalacho Rare Earth Elements Property, located at Nechalacho (Thor Lake), Northwest Territories, is a rich polymetallic rare metals resource, with potential for economic recovery of the rare earth elements (REE), lithium, zirconium, beryllium, niobium and tantalum.

Strategic Advantages about the Project

GEOLOGY

• Large Basal Zone deposit enriched in the heavy rare earths
• Near-surface mineralization of neodymium and praseodymium (T-Zone, Lake Zones)
• Low uranium and thorium levels
• Lithium potential through the mineral lepidolite in the South T deposit

ACCESSIBILITY

• Thor Lake has good access through its proximity to Great Slave Lake, providing access by barge in the summer and ice roads in the winter
• Located just 100 km southeast of Yellowknife
• Hay River is a nearby port with existing barging terminal and railhead accessible year round by an all-season highway
• A proposed expansion of hydro power generation and transmission capacity potentially offers Nechalacho a low-cost alternative to diesel-generated power at site

SUSTAINABILITY

• Basal Zone extraction and processing facilities have been designed to significantly minimize impacts to water, land and air and reduce the project’s carbon footprint
• T-Zone and Tardiff Zones provide the potential for small scale, staged development to produce Nd-Pr-rich concentrates for export
• Proactive community outreach initiatives including progressive Indigenous agreements
• Focus on strong health and safety performance reduces potential for delays and extra costs from lost time injuries

REDUCED RISK

• Politically stable jurisdiction
• Polymetallic rare metals resource with potential for multiple projects, revenue streams and by-products
