The Virgin Mountain rare earth & beryllium property is located in the Arizona portion of the Virgin Mountain range, about 120 km northeast of Las Vegas, Nevada.
Key Points:
- The Virgin Mountain rare earth & beryllium property is located in the Arizona portion of the Virgin Mountain range, about 120 km northeast of Las Vegas, Nevada.
- Past exploration activities for uranium and later for rare earth elements (REE) initiated in the 1940’s and ended in 1991.
- In the 1950’s and 1960’s the Virgin Mountains Be-bearing pegmatites had been explored intensely for beryllium, but never came into production.
- Rare Earth (REE) ± U & Th mineralization is hosted in migmate-gneiss and interlayered thin schist layers, locally also in pegmatite dikes.
