Ucore Rare Metals Inc. announced assay results from the company's 2014 drill program at the Bokan-Dotson Ridge heavy rare earth element (REE) project in Southeast Alaska. The 2014 infill drill program had a total of 17 diamond drill holes which produced 3,960 metres of core. Of the total holes completed, five holes were designed to test for mineralization at greater depth.

The remaining 12 holes were designed for infill work to upgrade the existing Bokan resource. All five of the deeper holes intercepted mineralization at significant depth and are characterized by grade and rare earth content consistent with the existing Bokan resource. The existing Bokan resource currently extends to an average depth of 220 metres.

The five deeper holes from the 2014 program intersect the mineralized zone an average of 100 metres below all previous drill intersections.
