source:nytimesA vast and largely overlooked source of rare earth metals, materials critical for clean energy, could be in our homes, sitting in the back of our cabinets and junk drawers.A new study from researchers in China and the Netherlands estimates that reusing or recycling rare earth metals from old cellphones, hard drives, electric motors and turbines could meet as much as 40 percent of the demand for the metals in the United States, China and Europe by 2050.It’s a promising prospect, particularly for the United States, which relies heavily on imports of these materials, often just call...

source:proactive investorsAbout the companyAclara Resources Inc is a rare earths company with a development project in Chile.The company has developed an extraction process called Circular Mineral Harvesting, that no other mining company can claim to have: it uses no explosives, no crushing, no milling and it does not produce any liquid residues. No tailings dam is required in its process.Furthermore, it recycles approximately 95% of the water used, as well as 99% of its main reagent; a common fertilizer.How it is doing20 Dec 2023Aclara Resources Inc (TSX:ARA, OTC:ARAAF) announced that 25 tons...

source:miningA new paper in Nature Physics shows that by cramming lots of rare-earth ions into a crystal, some will form pairs that act as highly coherent qubits, thus debunking the idea that solid-state qubits need to be super dilute in an ultra-clean material to achieve long lifetimes. According to the study’s authors, one of the major barriers to practical quantum computing has been how to make qubits that retain their quantum information long enough to be useful. It’s widely accepted that the key to qubits with long lifetimes, or ‘coherences’, is cleanliness. Qubits lose quantum ...
