Amongst the highlights of the company's plans, it continues to advance the Bear Lodge Project in Wyoming during 2012 and into 2013

including additional resource definition drilling to expand and upgrade the resources at the Bull Hill, Whitetail Ridge, and Bull

Hill NW deposits.

Exploration drilling is also scheduled at the Bull Hill West, Carbon REE, Taylor REE, and other prospective REE targets
identified during the 2010 and 2011 exploration programs.

Rare Element will also start the formal National Environmental Policy Act EIS process in 2012 and begin the formal Land Quality

Division of the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality permitting process in the second quarter of 2013.

The company anticipates completing a Definitive Feasibility Study by the middle of 2013.
