ource；PHYS.ORGA research team led by Dr. Yingying Zhang (Department of Chemistry, Tsinghua University) devised a scheme utilizing silkworms to produce strong, tough silk through feeding them with rare earth ion-modified diets. The rare earth ions can be incorporated into silk fibroin through feeding. And the incorporated ions are capable of forming ion-dipole and cation-π interactions with silk fibroin. These interactions are promising to tune the structures of silk to enhance its mechanical performance.Spectra analysis confirmed the successful incorporation of rare earth ions into silk fibers...

source:MiningNamibia Critical Metals (TSX-V:NMI, OTCQB:NMREF) has announced the successful completion of the pilot plant flotation test work for its 'Lofdal 2B-4' heavy rare earth project. The rare earths project developer said based on preliminary data, the pilot plant program confirms the reproducibility of the grinding and flotation regime for the Lofdal flowsheet and the ability to scale-up the design with confirmation of engineering design criteria. "We are extremely pleased with the completion of the flotation pilot plant test work, which has yielded highly positiv...

source:Australian MiningImpact Minerals has discovered a significant rare earth soil anomaly at the Akrun project in its newly identified Hyperion prospect 150km east of Perth, Western Australia.Recent soil geochemistry surveys at the site found high-tenor rare earth element (REE) results in the emerging mineral province.The surveys registered up to 5880 parts per million (ppm) total rare earth element oxides and Yttrium, which the company said is some of the highest reported in WA.“The discovery of the Hyperion prospect is a significant breakthrough in exploring the Arkun project, which has s...
