Longland personnel intend to travel to Greenland in May to meet with officials in the capital Nuuk, then transit to Mestersvig where they will spend approximately 10 days sampling and mapping known rare earth element (REE) and base metal sulphide occurrences on the recently enlarged licence area. Previous explorers noted the presence of the REE-bearing minerals xenotime and mosandrite within the Werner Bjerge Alkaline Complex.
