Location
The Bear Lake Rare Earth Element (REE) Project is located approximately 30 km north of Uranium City, Saskatchewan. The project consists of five claims covering 4,036 hectares (40.36 km²) and includes six historical REE occurrences.
The property is strategically located within 30 km of the Hoidas Lake Rare Earth Deposit and 25 km of Appia Energy’s Alces Lake Rare Earth Project, two of Saskatchewan’s most advanced rare earth developments.

Airborne Survey Results
Special Projects Inc. completed 1,110 km of airborne radiometric and magnetic surveys over the property using 50 m line spacing.
The survey confirmed previously known rare earth anomalies while identifying several new exploration targets, including:
New Anomaly #1
A previously unknown 600 m × 500 m thorium anomaly.
New Anomaly #2
A linear thorium anomaly extending more than 1.5 km along the shore of Ena Lake.
Searchlight uses thorium as a pathfinder for monazite, one of the principal rare earth-bearing minerals.

New Anomaly #1
Map 3 provides a detailed view of New Anomaly #1, highlighting the large, previously unexplored thorium target identified during the airborne survey.
Historical exploration within the Bear Lake project has returned samples grading up to:
The project also contains significant lake sediment anomalies, including a sample of 2,372 ppm TREE, ranking as the sixth-highest TREE value among more than 35,000 Canadian lake sediment analyses.
