Texas Rare Earth Resources Announces Commencement of Aerial Survey at Round Top Mountain

Texas Rare Earth Resources Corp. (OTCQB:TRER), a heavy rare earths
exploration, development and mining company, today announced that the
close-spaced aero-magnetic/gamma ray spectrography study contracted to
Aeroquest Airborne begins today at Round Top Mountain near Sierra
Blanca, Texas. Previously, the work was scheduled to be initiated in
late July of this year, however, Aeroquest was able to make schedule
improvements.

Marc Le Vier, Chief Executive Officer of Texas Rare Earth Resources,
stated, 'The aerial survey of Round Top Mountain and several other
targets in the area is important for advancing the development of the
project and driving the exploration drilling plan. The results will
provide direction and be an integral component of the drilling program
this year.?

Dan Gorski, Chief Operating Officer noted, 'Aeromagnetic surveying is
planned to define the form and geometry of the mineralized rhyolites and
to detect the presence of other rhyolite bodies which may be hidden
under cover.?

The Round Top Project was previously drilled in the mid 1980′s, and
Texas Rare Earth is in the process of re-logging and re-analyzing 82,000
feet of historical drilling. The Company previously announced the total
rare earth values, heavy rare earth percentages and material content of
nine historic drill holes that it has prioritized for re-analysis.
Results consistently reconfirm that along with apparent uniform rare
earth grades, Round Top Mountain is uniquely positioned to possibly be
the largest heavy rare earth element resource in the world. A study
conducted by the Texas Bureau of Geology, published in the Geological
Society of America, Special Paper 246 in 1990, estimated the size of the
body to be approximately 1.6 billion metric tons.

About Texas Rare Earth

Texas Rare Earth Resources Corp.'s primary focus is developing its Round
Top Mountain rare earth?beryllium-uranium project which also includes
niobium, tantalum and gallium. Round Top is located in Hudspeth County,
Texas, 85 miles east of El Paso. Independently published data indicates
the property may contain more than one billion metric tons of rhyolite
containing rare earths with a 67% ratio of heavy to light rare earths.
Prior exploratory work also indicates what management believes to be a
potentially large high-grade beryllium resource. Uranium is present in
the deposit and preliminary sampling shows grades of over 1% U exposed
in the mine. Texas Rare Earth's common stock trades on the OTCQB Market
tier under the symbol 'TRER.?
