In the newly released Recommendations for Exploration 2023 Report pdf p28-30, the area around the Anaconda mine was recommended for REE .
"One specific area of the eastern ERS recommended for exploration is the Anaconda iron mine area (Figure 1).
The Anaconda area is proximal to the southern boundary of the ERS and has been subject to exploration and drilling for iron. Historical exploration in this area has not focused on rare-element pegmatites thus recommended areas are based on the limited information that is currently available.
Diamond drilling in 1994 in the vicinity of the Anaconda iron mine, Durer Lake area, by Jilbey Exporation Ltd. (Norwin Geological Limited 1994) led to the intersection of numerous pegmatites, several of which are described in drill logs as bearing muscovite and/or garnet along with other mineralogical indicators of rare-element fertility (cf. Selway, Breaks and Tindle 2005). Figure 2 shows locations of drill holes drilled outside of mining leases that have encountered pegmatites described as bearing muscovite and/or garnet. Additionally, drill holes D-94-01 (green circle) and D-94-03 (yellow circle) encountered pegmatite described as containing an unidentified green-blue mineral. Many blue and green minerals are described from rare-element pegmatites, including muscovite, tourmaline, fluorapatite and beryl (Selway, Breaks and Tindle 2005). The Aldor Exploration beryl occurrence (see Figure 2; Ontario Mineral Inventory MDI42L10NW00012, Ontario Geological Survey 2022) occurs proximal to this area, which further strengthens this area as having potential for rare-element pegmatites. The presence of pegmatites with mineralogy suggestive of rare-element potential indicates that the area in and around the Anaconda iron mine leases is a promising location for further investigation."
Stewart Lake lies west of the Ananconda iron mine in the same formation.
