Quest Rare Minerals Ltd. (TSX:QRM) reported that it has resumed exploration and pre-feasibility studies on its Strange Lake and Misery Lake projects, located in Quebec.
As quoted in the press release:
Highlights:
– 2,500 m exploration drilling program targeting four new areas of high-grade surface mineralization outside of the B-Zone that may provide additional, higher-grade pegmatite-style resources as currently defined at the B-Zone
– 1,000 m drilling program by AMEC for geotechnical monitoring holes for use in the Pre-Feasibility study currently underway
– 5,000 m of drilling at the Misery Lake project to expand on mineralization returned from 2011 diamond drilling program where hole ML11010 returned up to 1.46 m grading 1.75% TREO at the edge of a known geophysical target
– Metallurgical and beneficiation testing of B-Zone mineralization continues to show good progress and is on target to transition to mini-pilot plant testing in Q4 2012. The flow sheet for separation of niobium from titanium has been achieved and is currently being tested to confirm reagent recovery and reuse options.
