source:SMALL CAPSRareX (ASX: REE) has identified a significant new heavy rare earths (HRE) opportunity following a desktop study of historical data from its Mt Mansbridge tenement package in Western Australia’s far north.A reassessment of data and the completion of heritage work with the Tjurabalan native title holders have opened the door for the company’s exploration team to begin planning to investigate an untested HRE soil anomaly 2 kilometres in length.The anomaly will be a focus for an upcoming field program, with exploration set to commence in the coming months in the area, which is loc...

source:TOHOKU UNIVERSITYA group of researchers has achieved significant progress in developing cost-effective catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), a critical component in technologies like water splitting and metal-air batteries. By incorporating chromium (Cr) into transition metal hydroxides, they have demonstrated enhanced catalytic activity using a combination of Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations and experimental synthesis.Details of their findings were published in the journal ACS Catalysis on August 30, 2024.In recent years, hydrogen production through water elect...

source:TechxploreAs the world transitions away from fossil fuels, the demand for rare earth elements (REEs) is only going to increase. These elements are vital to the production of technologies that will make the transition to green energy possible. While REEs are not technically rare, large deposits are found in only a few locations around the world—mostly in China—and they are difficult to extract."If we want to switch to electric vehicles by 2035 and be net-zero by 2050 we're going to need new sources of these metals," says Brendan Bishop, a Ph.D. candidate studying REEs at th...

source:phys.orgThe synthesis of molybdenum carbide catalysts typically requires high temperature, leading to inevitable passivation in an oxygen-containing atmosphere. Developing a new route to produce molybdenum carbide at low temperatures is challenging but essential to increase the density of surface active sites.In a recent study published in Angewandte Chemie International Edition, a research group led by Prof. BAO Xinhe and Prof. FU Qiang from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) developed an in-situ dynamic carbonization method to synt...
