CanAlaska Uranium reports extensive zones of heavy and light rare earth mineralization in surface rocks and boulder trains on the North East Wollaston project.

Total Rare Earth Element (REE) mineralization ranging from 0.2% to 10% is reported and, in many cases, it is the most valuable mineralization component of the samples. In other samples, REE occurs as a significant potential by-product from uranium or base-metal mineralized zones. Because of the varying ratio of heavy to light REE, the in-situ value estimate is quite variable. It is significant to highlight these very good mineral values at a time when REE minerals are being identified as important commodities for industrial development. The in situ values in the previous news release are hereby retracted.
