claims totaling 508 claim units prospective for rare earth elements
located in the Red Wine/Letitia Lake area of west central
Labrador (the "Zimtu
Property").
For its participation in the transaction, Zimtu will receive
staged payments of C$75,000 and
1,000,000 common shares over a 24-month period subject to

extensions to prospective mineralized zones Rare Earth has already
delineated at the historic Two Tom, Mann #1, Mann #2, and Michelin
showings, as well as newly-discovered mineralization on the
Playfair, South Block. Rare Earth is compiling all airborne
radiometric and magnetic data for the Zimtu Property. Prospecting
and mapping to further evaluate the claims will take place
immediately. Rare Earth now controls a total of 1,359 claim units
totaling 338.5 square kilometres; which gives them up to 70%

Element Belt.
