Aclara Resources has completed basic engineering for its Project Dynamo heavy rare earths separation facility in Louisiana, establishing a technical basis for construction. The study defines a US$494 million Capex requirement and an estimated US$773 million NPV at an 8% discount rate, supported by improved metallurgical recovery estimates and a secured air permit.
Aclara Resources is expanding the scope of its Project Dynamo rare earth separation facility in Louisiana to include yttrium, gadolinium, and samarium. The company has commenced installing additional solvent extraction circuits at its demonstration plant in Virginia to support this expanded product range.
Ucore has successfully completed its RSX-1 scale-up verification program for its RapidSX™ technology, intended for its Louisiana Strategic Metals Complex. The program optimized equipment configurations for 'Enhanced Machine A', which is capable of processing 600 tpa of TREO, marking a major milestone toward commercial rare earth separation.
