Idaho Strategic Resources (NYSE American: IDR) reports significant heavy rare earth element (HREE) and yttrium mineralization at its Diamond Creek project in Idaho. Surface sampling across four prospects along a 3.2-kilometer lineament averages approximately 1.8% total rare earth oxides (TREO), with enriched heavy rare earth oxides averaging over 2,000 ppm, including more than 1,300 ppm yttrium.
At the Lucky Gem prospect, a 32-meter trench and drillhole DC 22-8 each averaged 1.5% TREO, with HREO enrichment between about 2,300–2,500 ppm and yttrium between 1,600–1,700 ppm. The company highlights frequent yttrium concentrations of 800–2,000 ppm and notes xenotime as the primary yttrium-bearing mineral. A preliminary conceptual model suggests around 20,000 tonnes grading 1,600 ppm yttrium at Lucky Gem, though this does not qualify as a Mineral Resource under S-K 1300. Planned 2026 work includes additional mineralogical studies, initial processing tests, further field exploration, and potential bulk sampling.
