CEO Putnam Excited Mr. George Putnam, CEO of EMC commented:
"We are very excited to obtain this sizeable land position in an area attractive for scandium, and for a variety of specialty metals which are the primary commodity targets for EMC. In addition to presenting themselves as attractive drill targets, these properties offer an opportunity to meet one of EMC's objectives for scandium supply in particular, which is to build a multi-source capability to supply this embryonic market. As such, this opportunity fits well alongside our current JV scandium project in Australia (Nyngan Scandium - 50% earn-in). Of course the REE's and specialty metals possibilities hold the potential to move us in another desired direction as well."
