our knowledge of its REE potential," stated Stephen Wallace, President and CEO of Searchlight. "We
look forward to working with Special Projects whose proprietary systems have been used successfully
on the company's Duddridge Lake and Kulyk Lake projects and were instrumental in the discovery of the
Whalesback Ridge uranium and Hot Ridge REE showings on Kulyk Lake."
