U.S. Rare Earths, Inc. owns a 100% interest in a group of unpatented mineral claims, the Wet Mountains Property.
Within the "Wet Mountains Complex", Thorium and rare earth elements are noted in veins, syenite dikes fracture zones,
and carbonatite dikes (Armbrustmacher, 1988) associated with three Cambrian alkaline complexes (Olson and others, 1977)
that intruded the surrounding Precambrian terrane. Thorium-REE-mineralized veins and fracture zones,
which are distal to the three alkaline intrusive complexes, have the highest economic potential for thorium
and rare earth elements resources. The thorium-REE veins and fracture zones are linear features, typically 1-2 m (3.3-6.6 ft) thick, but a few are as much as 15 m (49 ft) thick. Some individual thorium veins can be traced in outcrop for 1.5 km (0.9 mi) and some radioactive fracture zones as much as 13 km (8 mi). Most of these vein and fracture-zone deposits lie within a 57 km2 (22 mi2) tract of Precambrian gneiss and migmatite located south and southeast of a quartz syenite complex at Democrat Creek. Christman and his associates mapped nearly 400 veins in this area (Christman and others, 1953, 1959) Source USGS Scientific Investigations Report 2010-5220.
