Ucore Reports That USGS Research Continues at Bokan Heavy REE Deposit in Alaska

Ucore Rare Metals Inc (TSX VENTURE:UCU)(OTCQX:UURAF) ("Ucore" or "the Company")
is pleased to report that the US Geological Survey ("USGS") is moving forward
with a laboratory and a field-based research program at the Bokan Dotson Ridge
deposit in southeast Alaska ("Bokan"). 


The program is intended to advance the agency's understanding of heavy rare
earth element ("REE") mineral resources. Currently, the U.S. relies on imports
of heavy REEs and Bokan is a potential source. Ongoing research will examine in
detail the mineralogy of the Dotson Ridge REE deposit. New fieldwork this summer
included geological mapping of the Bokan Intrusive Complex and sampling of
numerous associated REE mineral occurrences. The goal of this research is to
characterize the tectonic environment which generated the mineralization. 


"We're pleased with the continued high level of involvement of the USGS at
Bokan," said Jim McKenzie, President and CEO of Ucore. "These initiatives
reaffirm that this Alaska-based deposit is increasingly recognized as an asset
of critical importance to American high technology, defense systems and
alternative energy. They also demonstrate a commitment to the understanding and
advancement of this strategic resource at a federal level, which complements the
tremendous support of state agencies in Alaska."
