source:PHYSORGMagnetic skyrmions have received much attention as promising, topologically protected quasiparticles with applications in spintronics. Skyrmions are small, swirling topological magnetic excitations with particle-like properties. Nevertheless, the lower stability of magnetic skyrmions only allow them to exist in a narrow temperature range, with low density of the particles, thus implying the need for an external magnetic field, which greatly limits their wider applications.In a new report published in Science Advances, Yuzhu Song and a team of researchers formed high-density, spon...

source:proactiveMoho Resources Ltd (ASX:MOH) is zeroing-in on rare earth element (REE) mineralisation at the wholly-owned Peak Charles Project in Western Australia, with soil sampling and radiometric surveying pointing to two anomalies at the Gimli and Pippin prospects.A data review of assays from soil sampling surveys showed a progressive increase in soil total rare earth oxide (TREO) levels towards the core of a radiometric anomaly at the Gimli prospect, rising from background levels below 100 parts per million (ppm) TREO to up to 620 ppm at the centre.The Pippin anomaly sits about 15 kilome...

source：The Chemical EngineerRESEARCHERS at Penn State University, US, have developed a mussel-inspired nanocellulose coating (MINC) that can extract neodymium – a critical mineral used in clean energy technologies – from secondary sources such as industrial wastewater without using a high amount of energy. Playing a vital role in the production of lightweight, efficient batteries, and as essential powerful magnetic components in wind turbines, rare earth elements (REEs), including lithium and neodymium, are in high demand. Despite their name, many REEs are actually common in t...
