The Critical Metals Report Interview with Jeb Handwerger (2/14/12) "Enter center stage, Quantum Rare Earth Developments Corp. It's the only company that has an NI 43-101-complaint resource of niobium in the U.S., in its Elk Creek project in Nebraska. It's an ideal location for a mine. It's smack in the middle of farmland through which major roads and rail lines are available for Quantum's expansion. Quantum has both state and local support. At one point, back in the 1970s and 1980s, this was a Molycorp Inc. asset that was supposed to go into production, but then the whole industry moved overseas. Now, Quantum is building upon the research done by Molycorp. In fact, some of the original Molycorp people are updating the findings, working on the metallurgy and the development process for the same property they worked approximately 40 years ago. Quantum has an experienced chemical engineer on board and a strong metallurgical team with decades of experience."

Jeb Handwerger, Gold Stock Trades (1/18/12) "Quantum Rare Earth Development Corp. possesses the rights to the only NI-43-101-compliant resource of niobium in the United States at its Elk Creek project in Nebraska. . .[its] resource is in an ideal location. . .in a friendly jurisdiction that has state and local support for the Elk Creek Mine. . .the company is building upon valid research done by Molycorp in the 70s and 80s. . .and has an experienced chemical engineer on board and a strong metallurgical team that has five decades of experience. . .an independent preliminary economic assessment to be published in the first half of 2012. . .that should make public the current undervaluation of a $17M market capitalization. . .this is a project waiting to happen."

Roger Bade, Libertas Partners LLC (12/22/11) "For 2012, Quantum Rare Earth Developments Corp.'s receipt of metallurgical testing results from Hazen Research in Colorado, the engagement of an outside engineering firm to complete an updated resource calculation and preliminary economic assessment (PEA) work on the niobium deposit are planned, as is additional infill drilling to elevate the deposit towards the Indicated and Measured category. At the same time, further discussions with potential offtake or strategic partners to accelerate development of the Elk Creek project are underway. . .niobium grades look good and we await the PEA with interest."

UBS Morning Notes (12/21/11) "Quantum Rare Earth Developments Corp. announced in March that it has Indicated resources of 80 Mmt of niobium at 0.62% NbsO5 at the Elk Creek site in Nebraska. This compares to IAMGOLD's Niobec at ~60 Mmt at 0.53%. The company has announced that it plans to launch a preliminary economic assessment in 2012; with Niobec officially on the block for sale from IAMGOLD, you can expect a positive read through in the near-term for a company that has only got a market cap of $11M."
