VANCOUVER, BC, June 14, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Silver One Resources Inc. (TSXV: SVE; OTCQX: SLVRF; FSE: BRK1 - "Silver One" or the "Company") announces additional positive metallurgical test results from six core hole samples and three in-pit surface bulk samples from its Candelaria Project located in western Nevada, USA.  The results include column cyanide-leach tests on oxide, mixed oxide and sulphide ("mixed") and sulphide samples, as well as separate flotation tests on two sulphide-rich samples, being conducted by Kappes, Cassiday & Associates ("KCA") in Reno, Nevada.  The column leach tests on the core samples continue in progress with final results expected during the second half of 2023.

Key Points: 
  • The column leach tests on the core samples continue in progress with final results expected during the second half of 2023.
  • The column leach tests are progressing well; the silver recoveries received to date already exceed the historic silver recoveries achieved during the past production of the mine.
  • Moreover, the results also show that silver recovery can be improved significantly by High Pressure Grinding Rollers ("HPGR") crushing prior to heap-leaching.
  • In addition to that, the flotation-cyanidation testing on sulphide mineralization reveals excellent silver and gold recoveries as well as the ability to recover lead and zinc.

The Supply Crisis for Rare Earth Elements Intensifies

Wednesday, June 7, 2023

NEW YORK, June 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The transition from fossil fuels to electrification has created a huge increase in demand for rare earth oxides and demand is expected to get much larger. Rare earth oxides are irreplaceable elements integral to permanent magnets, critical components in electric vehicles and sustainable power generation equipment, especially windmills. About 90% of all permanent magnets are currently produced in China, which is now considering banning or restricting exports of technology to process and refine rare-earth elements. Beijing is also pondering provisions prohibiting or limiting exports of alloy technology used in making high performance magnets made from rare earths minerals. As the transition to a cleaner world grows, China is restricting exports of permanent magnets and related tech in favor of feeding domestic demand, thus strangling the global transition. Governments in North America and across the world have voiced extreme urgency in reshaping supply chains to reduce dependence upon China and achieve clean energy mandates. Only a few companies can be called leaders in a nascent yet potentially explosive market. Ucore Rare Metals Inc. (TSX.V: UCU) (OTCQX: UURAF) (Profile) stands out with its transformative technology, RapidSX(TM), for separating and purifying critical metals. Also in the hunt for market share in this burgeoning new market is MP Materials Corp. (NYSE: MP), Neo Performance Materials Inc. (TSX: NEO), Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR) and Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. (NYSE: LICY), all of which have established footholds and expanding operations in a concerted effort to shift away from reliance upon China and achieve energy independence.

Key Points: 
  • Rare earth oxides are irreplaceable elements integral to permanent magnets, critical components in electric vehicles and sustainable power generation equipment, especially windmills.
  • Against this backdrop, China's domestic market is experiencing a remarkable boom in the rare earth oxide (also often called rare earth elements, or REE) sector.
  • For more than 15 years, Ucore Rare Metals Inc. (TSX.V: UCU) (OTCQX: UURAF) has been an important part of the rare earth market, developing technology to disrupt the status quo of rare earth elements.
  • The company is now in a position to help solve the impending supply crisis by assisting with the creation of an independent supply chain of rare earth oxides for North American manufacturers.

The Attraction of Na-Ion Lies in Its Composition Rather Than Its Performance, Finds IDTechEx

Wednesday, May 31, 2023

BOSTON, May 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Na-ion is probably the most prominent metal-ion battery chemistry outside of Li-ion, working via the same 'rocking chair' (where the alkali-ion shuttles from a non-metal anode to a cathode during discharge and vice versa during charge) principle of reversible cation intercalation, at a positive and negative electrode. Materials can also be similar to Li-ion, with metal oxides often used as the cathode and carbon-based materials as the anode. However, the carbon cannot be in the form of graphite as the size of Na+ is too large for intercalation, and in reality, material choices may differ significantly compared to Li-ion chemistries.

Key Points: 
  • Materials can also be similar to Li-ion, with metal oxides often used as the cathode and carbon-based materials as the anode.
  • The three main families of cathode materials are the layered metal-oxides, polyanionic compounds, and Prussian blue analogs (PBA).
  • The great advantage of these compounds lies in their low molecular weight, which results in a high theoretical specific capacity.
