Rare earthelements uses

Using in-house developed, state-of-the-art, automated technology in metal smelting, SRC’s facility is ready to produce 10 tonnes of neodymium-praseodymium (NdPr) metals per month, with purities greater than 99.5 per cent and conversions greater than 98 per cent. SRC is on track to upscale this production to 40 tonnes of rare earth metals per month by the end of December 2024.

The Saskatchewan Research Council (SRC) is proud to announce that its Rare Earth Processing Facility located in Saskatoon is ahead of schedule and produced rare earth metals at a commercial scale in Summer 2024 – making Saskatchewan the first and only jurisdiction to do so in North America.

In July 2024, SRC finalized tolling agreements with several international clients to convert individual rare earth oxides into metals using metal smelting technology at SRC's Rare Earth Processing Facility. Prior to the facility being fully operational, these tolling agreements allow SRC to demonstrate its technology at a commercial scale with less upfront investment into raw rare earth material.

Tiffen 52mm Circular Polarizer Filters are used to select which light rays enter your camera lens. They can remove unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water or glass and also saturate colours providing better contrast. The effect can be seen through the viewfinder and changed by rotating the filter. The filter factor varies according to how the filter is rotated and its orientation to the sun. If you're out walking on a lovely day - in the mountains or at the beach - and you want to get a fabulous shot of a cloud-filled sky or make the water seem more saturated, then a polarizer is the way to go. This filter is the best way to make the clouds stand out, increase or decrease the saturation of the ocean or increase or decrease the reflection off the water. You can also use this filter when shooting into glass or windows since it will, again, either increase or decrease reflections. Along with a UV or Skylight Filter, a polarizing filter should be a part of everyone's gear bag. It can turn a run-of-the-mill image into a stunning, creative photo by increasing colour saturation.  Please Note: Circular polarizers are specifically designed for use with auto-focus SLR cameras (They will also work on manual systems without problems).

"SRC's Rare Earth Processing Facility is utilizing advanced technology and expertise to build a strong, sustainable rare earth supply chain for Canada and our allies," Minister Responsible for SRC Jeremy Harrison said. "The in-house technology developed by SRC means it is now the only facility in North America producing metals at a commercial scale. This will further advance Saskatchewan's global reputation as a secure supplier of rare earths that the world needs. Production of these metals is important for preserving our national security and growing our provincial economy for decades to come."

Once fully operational in early 2025, SRC's Rare Earth Processing Facility will produce approximately 400 tonnes of NdPr metals per year, enough to power 500,000 electric vehicles. Rare earth metals are also essential components for wind turbines, robotics, HVAC systems, elevators and green technologies.

Since 2020, SRC's Rare Earth Processing Facility has received $71 million in funding from the Government of Saskatchewan, as well as $30 million in combined funding from the Government of Canada. This funding has been instrumental in helping SRC construct a vertically and laterally integrated "minerals to metals" facility, equipped with state-of-the-art, proprietary technology developed by SRC.

"Our government is proud to support SRC's Rare Earth Processing Facility, making Saskatchewan the first and only jurisdiction in North America to produce these rare earth metals, further establishing a rare earth technological hub here in the province," Premier Scott Moe said. "This represents a significant opportunity for Saskatchewan to be a world leader in the area of critical mineral development by establishing a secure and sustainable rare earth supply chain."
