New way to invest in the Rare Earths: A Pooled Development Fund

[Sparty]

Quite an interesting development of late for those wanting to get into an early Rare Earth play that seems to have several distinctive differences over most of the current pathways.

A bit of history: A couple of years ago I sat down with a company that specialised in putting together Alternative Energy Indexes that investors could subscribe to. I suggested that they do a rare earth share index or ETF but they felt that the time wasn't right. I think that most would agree that they missed the boat... as in 2010 Van Eyck launched the USA Market Vectors Rare Earth/Strategic Metals ETF which trades under the symbol REMX.

And now we have here in Australia another interesting structure that allows investors interested in the REEs to invest in a range of potential REE resource deposits both here in Australia and New Zealand.

Rare Earths focused Pooled Development Fund
1. Provides a unique opportunity to invest into the rare earths sector.
2. Seeking to be the only ASX listed rare earths Pooled Development Fund (PDF).
3. Registration of the Company by the Federal Government as a PDF means most Shareholders pay no tax on capital gains or dividends.

Being in on the ground floor of a structure designed to capture a slice of arguably the rate limiting substrates for the emerging electron economy is more than a little interesting.

I'll be interested to get some feedback and questions....
