source:Streetwise ReportsIn a news release, Defense Metals Corp. (DEFN:TSX.V; DFMTF:OTC; 35D:FSEQB) announced that starting in April, it plans to conduct flotation pilot plant processing of the 30-ton bulk sample from its Wicheeda rare earth elements (REEs) property in British Columbia.The company based its decision to proceed with this on the positive results from bench-scale flotation and hydrometallurgical testing, which resulted in development of a flowsheet. It showed that Wicheeda REEs mineralization 'is amenable to relatively simple treatment via well-established flotation and hydro...

source:GlobeNewswire (press release)Completion of an extensive Process Engineering Design project for the extraction of REE from monazite sand, including detailed process flow diagrams and full waste management solutions.Project provides the requirements for a Techno-Economic Assessment (see description below) that will define economic considerations for a US-based REE operation.Sites and trade-off studies are now being evaluated in the US for prospective plant locations. Once complete, Medallion will progress to plant engineering, with a specific capacity and location.Medallion’s plant feedst...

source:ScienceAlertTo cram ever more computing power into your pocket, engineers need to come up with increasingly ingenious ways to add transistors to an already crowded space.Unfortunately there's a limit to how small you can make a wire. But a twisted form of rare earth metal just might have what it takes to push the boundaries a little further.A team of researchers funded by the US Army have discovered a way to turn twisted nanowires of one of the rarest of rare earth metals, tellurium, into a material with just the right properties that make it an ideal transistor at just a couple of ...
