These relatively high rates, which were expected, point to potentially strong rates of overall recovery of separated rare earth oxides, subject to additional demonstration testing over the coming weeks.

Key Points: 
  • These relatively high rates, which were expected, point to potentially strong rates of overall recovery of separated rare earth oxides, subject to additional demonstration testing over the coming weeks.
  • Additional solvent extraction steps will be deployed to establish the ultimate recovery rates of potential rare earth products.
  • NioCorp is currently focused on demonstrating its ability to recover three high-purity rare earth products:  (1) neodymium-praseodymium ("NdPr") oxide, which is the principal component of neodymium-iron-boron ("NdFeB") permanent rare earth magnets, (2) Dysprosium ("Dy") oxide, and (3) Terbium ("Tb") oxide.
  • However, very little of these high-purity separated rare earth products are made outside of Asia.

  • The well-known and time-tested process NioCorp is employing to remove calcium and magnesium carbonates from the ore using thermal treatment and leaching is part of the demonstration plant's Phase I flowsheet.
  • Phase I demonstration plant operations will continue with calcination and a ramp-up of leaching operations as testwork and assembly of Phase II and Phase III of the demonstration plant's planned operations proceed in parallel.
  • "The team at L3 has been working very hard to complete Phase I of the demonstration plant and deliver results.
