Mineral investigations in the Ketchikan mining district, southeastern Alaska: U.S. Bureau of Mines Open-File Report 11-95 (1995) 1995 (?Base Case?) employing a TREO cut-off of 0.4%. The Base Case renders an Inferred Mineral Resource of 2.0 million tonnes grading 0.61% TREO, an Indicated Mineral Resource of 2.9 million tonnes grading .61% TREO, and a skew of approximately 40% HREO over TREO Exploration "Probable resource" 4.44E8 0.219 9.7885128E8
