## Resource

Terrain Minerals Ltd executive director Justin Virgin talked with Proactive about the company’s rare earths work at the Lort River Project in Western Australia, while also outlining how the project fits alongside Terrain’s main focus at the Smoke Bush Gold Project. The discussion focused on why the metallurgy will be critical for the project’s future. Virgin explained that rare earths are not necessarily rare, but the challenge is finding them in sufficient grades and in a form that can be processed economically. Virgin also said Terrain Minerals could consider different paths for its rare earth assets, including bringing in a partner or potentially packaging the projects separately, while the company continues to prioritise Smoke Bush as its main gold project.
