source:The West AustralianASX-listed White Cliff Minerals looks set to bludgeon its way into the white-hot critical metals industry after completing the acquisition of two separate projects whilst advancing the pending acquisition of two junior explorers. As a result, the company may soon find itself with 10 additional lithium and rare earth element, or REE projects on its books with its landholding poised to balloon by over 4000 square kilometres.The fruit of the company’s labour will see it claim ownership of a highly prospective set of lithium and REE projects across WA and add another stri...

source:LaserFocusWorldWith the potential to enhance photothermal therapy, real-time, more accurate temperature detection could help doctors and clinicians diagnose skin cancers earlier and treat them quicker and ideally more effectively.Researchers at the Quebec (Canada)-based Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS) have developed single-shot photoluminescence lifetime imaging thermometry (SPLIT), which can easily measure temperature in 2D, and with no contact.The new imaging technique is based on the luminescence of nanoparticles doped with rare-earth ions. According to research...

soure:PennStateUNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Manufacturers rely on rare earth elements, like neodymium, to create strong magnets used in motors for electronics including hybrid cars, aircraft generators, loudspeakers, hard drives and in-ear headphones. But mineral deposits containing neodymium are hard to reach and are found in just a few places on Earth.With rising need for neodymium from several industries, attention has turned to recycling the elements found in old computers and printed circuit boards, otherwise known as electronic waste, to meet demand. But separating the valuable elements from o...

source:SmallcapsFurther lab analysis has confirmed the potential for Eclipse Metals’ (ASX: EPM) Ivittuut project in Greenland to contain high-grade rare earth elements (REE) along with zinc and tin.A week ago, the Perth-based explorer announced it had returned high-grade REE results from a review of historical drilling data from the Ivittuut mine precinct and nearby Gronnedal-Ika carbonatite area.In today’s announcement, Eclipse revealed core sample analysis from Gronnedal-Ika returned high-grade results of up to 1,245 parts per million praseodymium with anomalous zinc values, while samples fr...
