In this new video, NioCorp leadership discusses the implications of recent testing that demonstrated its ability to potentially double the recovery of titanium from each tonne of ore the Company expects to mine at its Nebraska-based Elk Creek Critical Minerals Project, once project financing is obtained and the commercial plant is constructed. The new process is expected to produce a purer form of titanium that may command a higher price than is assumed in NioCorp’s June 2022 feasibility study for the Project.

NioCorp’s demonstration plant in Trois Rivieres, Quebec, has shown that the Company’s new and improved recovery process can likely achieve an 83.7% rate of overall titanium recovery to final product. This compares to a 40.3% titanium recovery rate in NioCorp’s previous process approach. This new result points to a potentially large increase in the amount of titanium that NioCorp can potentially produce at currently planned rates of mining.

NioCorp’s current Feasibility Study shows the Project producing approximately 431,793 tonnes of titanium dioxide. The titanium produced by NioCorp’s new process is in the form of titanium tetrachloride (“TiCl4”), known in commercial markets as “tickle.” This is a purer form of titanium than the synthetic rutile, and generally commands a higher market price. TiCl4 is an input for the production of high-purity titanium oxides and compounds, which are used primarily in the manufacture of white pigments, and titanium metal and aerospace-grade titanium alloys.
Final determination of planned titanium production can be made only after work related to a mineral reserve update, additional engineering, updated project capital and operating cost estimates, and other required information is produced for publication in a new feasibility study.

Altona Rare Earths Plc is a UK listed mining exploration company focused on the development of Rare Earth Element mining projects in East and Central Africa

Our strategy is to acquire controlling interests in multiple mining assets, some of which already have seen years of exploration work, to reduce risk to our shareholders, while providing a higher opportunity for success.

We believe that this multi-asset portfolio will significantly improve our chances of providing a constant supply of the critical rare earth metals needed by many of the world’s major technology industries which are dependent upon a reliable and ever-increasing source.

Critical Materials Corner, Jack Lifton and Critical Materials Corner Co-Host & InvestorIntel Columnist Byron W. King are joined by Constantine Karayannopoulos, President, CEO and Director of Neo Performance Materials Inc. (TSX: NEO). Constantine describes the real state of the rare earth mining, refining, and end-use product industry, outside of China, as it exists and operates today, from the perspective of the largest non-Chinese owned vertically integrated, beyond the mine, rare earth products producer in the world. Questions from Jack and Byron lead Constantine to describe and differentiate today's European and North American markets with regard to their sizes, existing supplies and suppliers, and their futures as he sees them.

Although Neo Performance Materials is a Canadian company, headquartered in Toronto, it produces and sells rare earth product lines within China, Europe, SE Asia, and North America. Jack points out that this makes Constantine Karayannopoulos a uniquely qualified expert to analyze the global rare earths' products' markets. And surmises that those watching may learn a great deal in this conversation about the synergies between rare earths’ supply and the real-world markets.

In a remote section of Tanzania is the world's strangest volcano. Here, low temperature lava erupts as a black color, but soon cools to a bright white rock. This lava has a viscosity lower than water and is enriched in rare earth elements. Known as carbonatite, this unique lava has implications for mining operations around the globe which are searching for ancient deposits of it. So, why does this rare earth element enriched lava erupt?

Highlights from AGM about nickel mining.

#Mining
#ElonMusk

When we take that anode cost reduction, we're looking at another 5% reduction in dollar per kilo kilowatt hour costs at the battery pack level. But wait, there's more.

Let's talk about cathodes. What is a battery cathode cathodes are like bookshelves where the metal -- the nickel, cobalt, manganese, or aluminum is like the shelf and the lithium is the book. Really what sets apart these different metals is how many books of lithium they can fit on the shelves and how sturdy the shelves are.

It's tough to figure out what the right analogy is to explain cathode and anode, but a bookshelf is probably a pretty good one. You need a stable structure to contain the ions. You want a structure that does not crumble or get gooey. Basically, something that holds it's shape in both the cathode and the anode. As you're moving these ions back and forth, it needs to retain it's structure. If it doesn't retain a structure then you lose cycle life and your battery capacity drops very quickly.

Totally agree. People are always talking about what the cathode is going to be but the thing to consider is what the metals are capable of and that's what we have on this chart here -- dollar per kilowatt hour cost of the metal in the cathode using LME London Metal Exchange prices versus the energy density of just the cathode. You can see nickel is the cheapest and the highest energy density. That's why increasing nickel is a goal of ours and really everybody's in the battery industry.

One of the reasons why cobalt has even used it all is because it is a very stable bookshelf. The challenge with going to pure nickel is stabilizing that bookshelf with only nickel and that's what we've been working on with our high-nickel cathode development, which has zero cobalt in it. We are leveraging novel coatings and dopants. We can get a 15% reduction in cathode dollar per kilowatt hour.

It's a big deal.

It's not just about nickel.
