Episode notes
Historic Resource With Clear Upside
- Springer hosts a historic 2012 Tetra Tech resource and every borehole showed mineralization left open at depth and along strike.
- Kerem sees substantial upside because drilling stopped under ~200m and mineralization begins at surface.
Light REEs With Valuable Heavy Component
- The deposit is predominantly light REEs but contains meaningful heavies that add value to the basket.
- Kerem cites about 21% payables in basket value and roughly 5% heavies reported in historic data.
Near-Continuous High-Width Drill Result
- Recent drilling returned continuous mineralization, with one hole ~439m at ~1% TREO and higher-grade intervals.
- Kerem emphasizes holes went deeper than planned and showed consistent mineralization outside the historic shell.
