70% to 100% of the individual rare earth elements report to two main minerals

Thunder Bay, ON – Rare Earth Metals Inc. (“Rare Earth Metals”, “RA” or the “Company”) ( TSX-V: RA; OTCQX: RAREF) is pleased to report that it has received results on a High Definition Mineralogy Analysis of two Composite REE Samples from the Red Wine Property, Labrador. The testwork was conducted by SGS Mineral Services of Lakefield, Ontario, Canada. The test program was designed to provide quantitative mineral speciation and distribution, as well as resolving the liberation and association characteristics by size of the REE, Nb and other minerals. Results to date indicate the LREE and HREE at Two Tom and Mann #1 are concentrated in 2 main minerals: monazite and a cerium – calcium silicate.

At Two Tom, the main REE bearing phases include m onazite (1.4% of the composite sample), Ce-Ca silicate (1.1%), barium silicate (2.6%), niobophyllite (0.1%), pyrochlore (0.1%) and synchysite/bastnasite (0.2%). On the basis of the mass of each REE phase and electron microprobe analyses, monazite and Ce-Ca silicates carry most of the La (~65% and 14%, respectively), Ce (47% and 23%), Nd (~34% and 54%, respectively), Pr (42% and 43%, respectively). The Ce-Ca silicates carry most of the Sm (98%), Y (95%), Gd (98%), and Dy (~100%). Nb is mainly carried by pyrochlore (49%), niobophyllite (18%) and a Ba-silicate (21%).

At Mann #1, REE-bearing phases include m onazite (1.9%), Ce-Ca Silicates (1.2%), barium silicates (1.5%), niobophyllite (1.2%), pyrochlore (0.1%) and synchysite/bastnasite (0.1%). On the basis of the mass of each REE phase and electron microprobe analyses, monazite and Ce-Ca silicates carry most of the La (~74% and 13%, respectively), Ce (56% and 24%), Nd (~39% and 52%, respectively), Pr (47% and 42%, respectively). The Ce-Ca silicates carry most of the Sm (95%), Y (92%), Gd (95%), and Dy (~100%). Nb is mainly carried by niobophyllite (73%) and pyrochlore (17%).

Preliminary results also indicate that relatively speaking, liberation of monazite is good (the highest liberation recorded in the -25um is 64%). Additional work is required to determine the recoverability of the REE minerals.

Going forward the Company plans to:

• Initiate a 2011 in-fill drilling program at the Two Tom prospect by mid-June towards completing a 43-101 compliant resource by last quarter 2011
• Develop further drill targets on a number of showings including Dory Pond, Playfair South, B3 South, etc. with detailed ground surveys
• Drill test 2010 discoveries with HREO enrichment. This will include Eudialyte Hill, Dory Pond and Playfair South. This will be the first drill testing of these showings
• Complete 2010 airborne survey follow-up (prospecting, mapping, lithogeochemistry and soil geochemistry) on new target areas..
