About Aclara
Aclara is a development-stage rare earth mineral resources company located in Chile. Aclara is initiating the
development of its resources through a project called the Penco Module (the “Penco Module”), which covers
a surface area of approximately 600 hectares and which has ionic clays that are rich in rare earth elements.
Aclara is currently focused on the development and on the fu ture construction and operation of the Penco
Module, which will aim to produce a rare earth concentrate through a processing plant that will be fed by clays
from nearby deposits. Aclara’s unique extraction process offers several advantages such as: no blas ting,
crushing or milling required ; no tailings dam ; minimal water consumption due to a high level of water
recirculation; amenable leaching with a fertilizer; and no radioactivity.
