GUID (UUID V4):

The Eldor Carbonatite was discovered during the course of a regional exploration program for uranium by Eldor Resources Ltd. In 1981, the company performed a regional lake water and sediment sampling program in the northern. part of the Labrador Trough. In the area of the carbonatite, seven lakes returned anomalous values of uranium.

Commerce Resources Corp. is currently [2021] exploring the Eldor Carbonatite Complex and has reported measured and indicated resource estimates of 29.3 Mt. grading 1.90 wt% TREO, using a cut-off grade of 1.25 wt% TREO. The carbonatite is exposed in a 7 × 3.5 km elliptical area and comprises a suite of intrusions ranging in composition from calcite- through dolomite- to ferro‑carbonatite. Based on the distribution of the REE, the pluton has been subdivided into a Rim composed of REE-poor calcite- and dolomite‑carbonatite (the Rim carbonatites) and a core of dolomite carbonatite and ferrocarbonatite that hosts the Ashram REE deposit.
