Avalon Rare Metals Sets Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders for February 24, 2016

Avalon Rare Metals (TSX:AVL,OTCQX:AVLNF) announced that it will hold its Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders at 4:30 pm EST onWednesday, February 24, 2016, at the Toronto Board of Trade, Room A/B/C/D, located at 1 First Canadian Place, Toronto, Ontario.
As quoted in the press release:

At the Meeting, shareholders will be asked to approve a special resolution authorizing the Company to effect a change of name from “Avalon Rare Metals Inc.” to “Avalon Advanced Materials Inc.” Avalon deems that the current Company name fails to adequately convey the Company’s diversified specialty metals and minerals asset base. The Company is not exclusively focused on rare earths and current activities are now focused on its other advanced materials assets, notably lithium and tin-indium. The proposed name of “Avalon Advanced Materials Inc.” is better suited to current Company activity.
