American Rare Earths Advances Permitting at Cowboy State Mine
Completion of groundwater monitoring wells marks a key milestone in securing a state mining permit HIGHLIGHTS 10 groundwater monitoring wells successfully installed across the CSM site Baseline environmental and groundwater data now being collected Permitting is advancing on Wyoming State land, which offers a streamlined and efficient approval pathway Collected data will support both mine permit applications and the Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) The PFS is on track for completion in late 2025 ARR is advancing one of the largest and most strategically significant rare earth projects in the United States, underpinned by a 2.63 billion tonne JORC Resource1 DENVER, May 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- American Rare Earths Limited (ASX: ARR | OTCQX: ARRNF | ADR: AMRRY) ('ARR' or 'the Company') is pleased to announce that groundwater monitoring wells have now been successfully installed at the Cowboy State Mine, part of the Halleck Creek Rare Earths Project in Wyoming, USA. This represents a significant step forward in the environmental permitting process with the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (WDEQ), a requirement for progressing the Company's state mining permit application. Water quality collection methods and analysis are being conducted in accordance with guidelines defined by the WDEQ. Located on State-managed land, the Cowboy State Mine benefits from a significantly simplified permitting framework compared to projects on Federal lands. The groundwater wells will now be monitored for a full year to generate required baseline hydrological and environmental data. This data will inform groundwater modelling, mine planning, and ultimately support the formal submission of the mining permit application. Planning is also underway for 24-hour pump testing, which is a key requirement for permit approval. The testing will measure water flow, aquifer connectivity, and potential mine dewatering needs. Chris Gibbs, CEO of American Rare Earths, said:'The installation of these groundwater monitoring wells is an important milestone in the Cowboy State Mine permitting pathway. This work underpins our environmental approvals process and further validates our strategy of developing on State land, which is a major competitive advantage in the U.S. market. We remain on track to complete the Pre-Feasibility Study by the end of 2025, as we continue to build momentum toward our target of first production as early as 2029.' Next Steps Quarterly groundwater sampling and analysis to continue throughout the 12-month monitoring period Completion of 24-hour pump tests to support groundwater modelling Formal mine permit application expected to be submitted in parallel to data collection CSM Pre-Feasibility Study progressing on schedule for delivery in late 2025 ARR remains focused on advancing one of the largest and most strategically significant rare earth projects in the United States, supporting the nation's efforts to develop a secure, sustainable critical minerals supply chain.

American Rare Earths Channel Sampling Program Highlights TREO Grades up to 13,651 ppm
HIGHLIGHTS DENVER, May 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- American Rare Earths Limited (ASX: ARR | OTCQX: ARRNF | ADR: AMRRY) (ARR or the Company) is pleased to report the results from a mapping and channel sampling program across the Cowboy State Mine (CSM) area, part of the Halleck Creek Rare Earths Project in Wyoming. A total of 106 channel samples were collected across Red Mountain by geologists from Wyoming Rare (USA) Inc (WRI), ARR's wholly owned U.S. subsidiary, in collaboration with technical support from Geosyntec. Assay results confirmed elevated rare earth mineralization across the Red Mountain area, including a standout sample grading 1.37% (13,651ppm) Total Rare Earth Oxide (TREO). TREO grades of Red Mountain Pluton (RMP), the rare earth bearing rock type, ranged from 711 ppm to 13,651 ppm with an average of 3,661 ppm. On average, magnet rare earth oxides1 (MREO) account for approximately 28% of the total rare earth content (1,023 ppm), while heavy rare earth oxides2 (HREO) represent around 13% (464 ppm). A total of 15 samples exceeded 4,500 ppm TREO, indicating areas of elevated-grade material within the system. These results further highlight the southern portion of Red Mountain as hosting some of the highest-grade material observed to date for the CSM area. The channel sampling data is currently being incorporated into an updated geological model and mineral resource estimate for the CSM area. This model will assist mine planning and support the Pre-Feasibility Study, which remains on track for completion in late 2025. Chris Gibbs, Chief Executive Officer, said: 'Halleck Creek is shaping up to be the next major rare earths project in the United States. With the high-value core four magnet rare earths including neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium and terbium consistently present across the Cowboy State Mine, we are advancing one of the few U.S. projects capable of supplying these critical materials at scale. What's especially encouraging is the continued confirmation of these core four rare earths across the sampled area. In particular, terbium and dysprosium are vital for high-temperature magnet performance and remain in extremely limited supply outside of China. Based on our Scoping Study, they are expected to contribute over 25 percent of project revenues, despite representing a small percentage of overall tonnage. Importantly, we don't need federal permitting reform to move forward. Being located on state lands in Wyoming gives us a clear and streamlined path to development. With China's recent export bans on terbium and dysprosium, the national importance of Halleck Creek as a secure domestic source has never been clearer. As outlined in our Updated Scoping Study3, a staged development could see first production as early as 2029. With its scale, simplicity and multi-generational resource potential, Halleck Creek has the attributes to become one of America's most significant rare earths projects.'

Here's a First Look at Union and Fragment Design's Highly Anticipated Air Jordan 1 Collab
After it was confirmed by Union owner Chris Gibbs in a February interview, a first look at the Los Angeles retailer's three-way collaboration with Fragment Design and Jordan Brand has surfaced. Sure to be one of the more coveted sneaker designs of the year, the Fragment Design x Union x Air Jordan 1 High blends the best of both worlds from each brand's respective collaboration on the silhouette. The Hiroshi Fujiwara-led Fragment Design is represented through the white, black and royal blue colorway as well as its signature lightning bolt logo stamp near the heel. At the rubber midsole, Fragment Design's tooling code detailing calls out both Fujiwara and Gibbs. More from Footwear News First Look: Michael Jordan's 'Shattered Backboard' Air Jordan Returns for Its 10th Anniversary First Look: Flower Mountain and Universal Works' Floral-Filled Collaboration For its part, Union has contributed elements from its Air Jordan 1 collaborations including zig-zag stitching at the ankle and tongue, a deconstructed tongue design and the addition of a woven tag reading 'Union' instead of the usual 'UN/LA.' Somewhat surprisingly, the colorway does not feature mismatched portions like most of Union's other Air Jordan 1s. 'We have the Fragment Design collaboration that's coming later,' Gibbs confirmed in February. Union's Jordan Brand partnership began in 2018 with the launch of a two-sneaker Air Jordan 1 High collection which featured the first appearance of the store's mash-up concept. The duo then issued a follow-up 'I'm Back' colorway in February. As for Fragment Design, 2014 Air Jordan 1 High collaboration was the beginning of a long-term partnership that has included coveted projects with Travis Scott. While the Fragment Design x Union x Air Jordan 1 High is confirmed to be released soon, some of the specifics remain undetermined. While the pair has previously been rumored to release in 2025, the midsole text indicates the collaboration could be destined for a spring 2026 launch. Retail pricing has not been confirmed.
