One of those is [Ucore Rare Metals (TSXV:UCU)]( which recently reached a significant milestone in its working relationship with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), advancing its position in the rare earth elements (REE) market. [SEE COMPANY PROFILE]( [Click here to Register] The company successfully completed the second phase of its [US$4 million]( transaction agreement at its commercialization and demonstration facility in Kingston, Ontario. This achievement marks a critical step forward in the development of Ucore's innovative separation technology. At the heart of this milestone is Ucore's 52-Stage [RapidSX demonstration plant](. The company utilized its 52-Stage RapidSX demonstration plant at its commercialization and demonstration facility and successfully separated mixed heavy and light REE chemical concentrate feedstocks, including mixed rare earth oxides and carbonates. By utilizing this plant, Ucore is positioned as a key player in the rare earth supply chain, providing vital materials for various industries, including defence, technology and clean energy. The partnership was announced back in June 2023 through its wholly owned subsidiary, Innovation Metals Corp., with two objectives to present to the U.S. DoD: - The capability to commercially source a sustainable domestic (i.e., the U.S. and Canada) processing facility for converting heavy and light REEs feedstock sources to salable individual rare earth products. - A new innovative separation process that increases the ability to create domestic REE processing plants. Dysprosium: A crucial element One of the notable elements separated by Ucore's technology is dysprosium. Dysprosium is a highly sought-after rare earth metal that plays a crucial role in modern technologies. Notably, dysprosium enables the production of rare earth permanent magnets capable of operating in high-temperature environments. These magnets are essential components in electric vehicle motors, wind turbines and other clean energy applications. Traditionally, the processing of dysprosium has been heavily concentrated in China, raising concerns about supply chain vulnerabilities. Ucore's ability to efficiently extract dysprosium and other REEs outside of China enhances supply chain resilience and strengthens strategic partnerships with the U.S. DoD and other key stakeholders. In addition to controlling [85 per cent]( of today, China accounts,of rare earth magnet production) of rare-earth processing, according to Politco, Reuters reported that China has also banned the export of [technology to make rare earth magnets]( and technology to extract and separate critical materials. This is worth a look for national security and economic reasons. By reducing reliance on foreign sources for these critical materials, Ucore is helping to ensure a stable and secure supply chain for the United States and its allies. REEs are critical to many defence and commercial technologies, including those relying on rare earth permanent magnets to convert electrical to mechanical energy. Demand for these unique elements is expected to grow as the electrification of the worldwide vehicle fleet continues.
