source:Zelosos por Buenas RenovablesRare Element Resources (RER) is spearheading a groundbreaking initiative to establish US-based rare earth production using innovative recovery and separation technology. While China has dominated the rare earth market for decades, controlling over 85% of processing and separation and 92% of rare earth magnet production, RER aims to challenge this monopoly and reduce the risk associated with the global supply chain.Rare earths, although often overlooked, play a crucial role in our everyday lives. They are integral to the technology we rely on, from computers ...

source:CsiroIt comes as no surprise to anyone in the industry that extracting coal leaves many by products at mine sites, currently classified as waste.Our research team has found that in some places, coal waste may contain a 'higher than background' level of rare earth elements (REE) and sometimes also lithium – valuable for the energy transition.The team is currently focusing on research supporting the mining industry to identify and recover critical minerals such as rare earth elements.These can be found both in-situ, in existing mining operations, as well as in new mining areas.We ...
