ABx has received highly favourable feedback from the first formal assessment of its mixed rare earth carbonate (MREC) product by a prospective customer.

Rare Earth Technologies (RETi) is a US-based company that is building significant production capacity in the USA, positioning itself as a cornerstone of domestic rare earth supply chain security.

ABx provided a sample of the maiden MREC from the Deep Leads project in Tasmania for evaluation by RETi. Following assessment and testing, RETi advised that the Deep Leads MREC is of high purity and is suitable for the RETi process.

ABx and RETi will now advance discussions about supply of ABx MREC to RETi.
