Seymour Ventures' (TSX VENTURE:SEY)(FRANKFURT:3CK1)(WKN:A1C08G) wholly owned
subsidiary Rare Earth Industries Ltd (REI), is pleased to announce that it has
secured a rare earth element exploration property in Fremont County, Colorado,
known historically as the Henry Pegmatite. 


A total of 66 claims were staked from the US Bureau of Land Management, and
consist of approximately 1320 acres. The claims are located approximately 3
kilometers north-northeast of Cotopaxi, CO, and are easily accessible by paved
roads. Existing infrastructure will greatly assist REI in conducting exploration
work.


The Henry Pegmatite, which has a minimum strike length of 84 m and width of 12
m, is situated along the contact between the Pikes Peak batholith and clastic
metasedimentary host-rocks. Mining was initiated in 1939 when several hundred
tons of potash feldspar was produced by the Colorado Feldspar Company from open
cuts. Rare earth element minerals were first documented in an investigation by
Heinrich (1948, The American Mineralogist, vol.33).


This pegmatite is an example of a rare earth element class, REL-REE subclass,
Euxenite-type according to the classification of Cerny and Ercit (2005).
Granitic pegmatite systems of this type can exhibit marked enrichments in rare
earth elements, and particularly yttrium. This is suggested at the Henry
Pegmatite by the diversity of rare earths minerals such as euxenite-Y,
xenotime-Y, allanite-Ce, synchisite-Y (formerly called doverite), samarskite-Y,
kainosite-Y (formerly called cenosite) that are associated with fluorite,
columbite, zircon (variety cyrtolite), biotite and magnetite (Eckel, 1997,
Minerals of Colorado). For example, synchisite-Y contains 52 wt.% Y2O3 and a
notable content of several heavy rare-earth elements (approx. 35 wt.% Dy2O3 +
Er2O3 + Yb2O3 + Gd2O3) according to historical data (Levinson and Borup 1962,
The American Mineralogist, vol.47).


REI will develop a thorough exploration program to fully quantify and assess REE
and rare metals potential of the Henry Pegmatite. This will include mapping,
geophysical analysis, trenching and sampling, and design of an initial drill
program to outline resources. Specifically, REI will look to identify high value
drill targets. 


Seymour's Qualified Person, Fred Breaks, PhD, will develop and supervise the
exploration work and will author the initial Canadian National Instrument 43-101
technical report for the property, as well as continuing updates as work
progresses. 


This acquisition is consistent with REI's vision to develop a
vertically-integrated rare earths and rare metals production supply chain that
will focus on adding significant value throughout the production cycle. Securing
potential rare earths and rare metals production properties meets REI's
acquisition mandate of being either advanced stage assets, or assets with
significant potential.


REI's CEO Rob Smith commented, "The acquisition of this property is
complementary to REI's previously-announced, past-producing Phantom Pegmatite,
also located in Fremont County. REI has a unique opportunity to explore and
develop areas of known rare earths and rare metals mineralization."


Frederick W. Breaks, PhD, P.Geo is the Qualified Person responsible for the
Phantom Pegmatite Project, and has read and approved the technical disclosure
contained in this news release.
