The Incubator Garden at Rooted in Wyoming is growing well. David Johnson, Executive Director of Rooted in Wyoming, explains what the garden is.
Currently they are growing potatoes, tomatoes, cabbage, cucumbers, beets and other plants, on a quarter acre. Johnson said the whole property that they have to use is 19 acres. He would like to thank Dan Reinke who has collaborated with Rooted on the property, which was a hay field.
He talked about SCSD#2 with the Fifth Street Greenhouse, and their pilot production for hydroponic gardening which grew over 590 pounds of leafy greens, and they donated a great deal of the production to the food group and other groups in the area during the summer. “That turned out quite well,” Johnson said. It will be used in the school lunch program.
He talked about some of the ideas they have for the garden.
The garden produce is organically grown, weeding is done by hand, and they used companion plantings for insect control. Johnson said there are 20 raised beds, made by rolling out cardboard on the grass that has been mowed short, then adding soil and compost on top of the cardboard.
He said they are working with SCSD#2 to provide vegetables for their school food program. “We talked to Leslie Haberkern, food services manager, and she gave a list of ten crops she wanted us to grow.” These included potatoes, tomatoes, and carrots, crops that are easy for the cooks to prepare.
Ellie Martin, chairman of the Rooted in Wyoming board, has been with Rooted for six years. She and her daughter, Evelyn, were at the garden on Friday pulling weeds. She talked about the first year at the Bridges location.
Ian Cannon-Wallace, project and outreach coordinator, talked about the teaching garden which they built in June, and the upcoming festival and fundraiser they will have on Sept. 7.
Everyone is welcome to come to Bridges on Saturday, Sept. 7 to help the celebrate Rooted in Wyoming’s first year there.

Outstanding Drill Results at the Cowboy State Mine area for Wyoming Rare (USA) Inc.
Drill Intercepts includes 299.1 Meters at 4,393 ppm TREO
Highlights
-
Assay results for 756 samples from the first 11 core and reverse circulation holes, has been received following the completion of the 2024 drilling campaign.
-
Assays show elevated rare earth mineralization from surface to depths of at least 300m.
-
Significant results include:
-
HC24-RM035: 299.1m @ 4,393 ppm Total Rare Earth Oxides (“TREO”)
-
HC24-RM023: 117.5m @ 4,006 ppm TREO
-
HC24-RM026: 81m @ 3,673 ppm TREO
-
HC24-RM028: 81m @ 3,602 ppm TREO
-
HC24-RM030: 81m @ 3,652 ppm TREO
-
HC24-RM031: 81m @ 2,698 ppm TREO
-
-
Deposit remains open at depth.
-
The results of this drill program to be used to update geological models, resource estimate and input for the upcoming Prefeasibility Study (“PFS”).
DENVER, Sept. 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — American Rare Earths (ASX: ARR | OTCQX: ARRNF | ADR: AMRRY) (“ARR” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the first assay results from the 2024 drilling campaign at the Cowboy State Mine (“CSM”) area of its wholly owned subsidiary, Wyoming Rare (USA) Inc (“WRI”).
ALS Global provided assay results for 756 samples from 11 core and reverse circulation holes, plus one partial hole. Since drilling concluded final drill hole locations were surveyed and geophysical logs for each drill were collected. Additionally, acoustic televiewer logs were collected in 7 core holes.
Drill hole HC24-RM035 showed an average grade of 4,393 ppm TREO across the entire 299.1m length of the drill hole. The results continue to indicate the deposit remaining open at depth and extending well into Red Mountain. Likewise, drill hole HC24-RM023 has an average TREO grade of 4,006 ppm over 117.5m. WRI geologists prepared and shipped 54 core samples to WSP for geomechanical analysis. WRI also provided WSP with televiewer logs collected during the program.
Chris Gibbs, CEO, commented:
“These first assay results continue to demonstrate the upside potential of the Halleck Creek district. The 2024 drilling indicated elevated rare earth mineralization of the CSM area extending well into Red Mountain. The sheer size and scale of the deposit continues to grow as these results confirm the deposit remaining open from surface to depths of at least 300m.”
Gibbs continued: “These drill holes allow us to expand our resource estimates into Red Mountain in the western portion of the CSM area. Our team continues to focus development on the CSM area, a portion of the Halleck Creek Wyoming State Tenements. With a pathway to State permitting and recent Government funding, the CSM area represents a unique opportunity to work with the State of Wyoming to rapidly advance the Project. When the remaining assay results are received, we will update our geological models and resource estimates. This data, together with the results of geomechanical test work, will provide the basis for detailed mine planning within our upcoming PFS.”
WRI geologists are also using the assay data, and whole rock geochemistry to update lithological designations of specific rock types within the Red Mountain pluton. Geological modelling domains are also being updated based on these rock type designations. Once the remaining assay samples are received from ALS geological models will be updated to reflect all data at the CSM Area.
This announcement is authorized for release by the CEO of American Rare Earths.

Wyoming's Jack O’Neil Ready to Kick Off Paralympic Games
![Wyoming's Jack O’Neil Ready to Kick Off Paralympic Games Wyoming's Jack O’Neil Ready to Kick Off Paralympic Games](https://townsquare.media/site/1004/files/2024/02/attachment-Corbett.jpg?w=1200&q=75&format=natural)
* University of Wyoming press release
LARAMIE — University of Wyoming swimmer Jack O’Neil is set to kick off his 2024 Paralympic Games campaign with Team USA. The Games run from Aug. 28-Sept. 8, with the swimming portion of the games spanning Aug. 29-Sept. 7 at Paris La Defense Arena in Nanterre.
Jack O’Neil was featured on the One Wyoming Podcast with Ryan Thorburn and said, “It was so surreal. This is a goal I have been working at since I knew what the Paralympics were. One of the driving purposes of having my leg amputated was seeing the Paralympics for the first time in 2012 and seeing what those people were capable of. So, knowing that I’m going in the same spot as some of the people who inspired me to amputate my leg and lead a better life, it’s just incredible.”

O’Neil will be competing in the preliminaries of the 100-meter backstroke Saturday at 2:30 a.m. It can be streamed on Peacock or digitally.
Should O’Neil qualify for finals in the 100-meter backstroke, he will swim again at 10 a.m. That race will be for a spot on the podium.
O’Neil could also compete as a member of the 34-point mixed medley relay team for Team USA on Monday at 2:30 a.m. If O’Neil is selected to compete on the relay and advance to finals, they would swim again at 12:10 p.m.

“All the people that have helped me along the way, my University of Wyoming teammates and coaches, the entire university, I’m so proud to represent them and everything that they’ve put into me,” O’Neil said. “I’m really just a product of the amazing community behind me.”
