TEL AVIV, Israel, May 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — REE Automotive Ltd. (NASDAQ: REE) (“REE” or the “Company”), an automotive technology leader and provider of electric vehicle (EV) platforms, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023, through a shareholder letter posted on the company’s investor relations website at https://investors.ree.auto.

1Q23 Highlights:
REE remains focused on zero emission Class 3-5 vehicles built on its P7 platforms; ongoing activities support previously announced planned certification completion in 2H23; initial pilot vehicle deliveries to customers targeted to begin by the end of year 2023.
Expands dealer network in the US, with eight dealers and three fleet customers, with initial orders of approximately 100 vehicles1 which are designed to meet the growing demand in part driven by the Advanced Clean Fleet (ACF) regulation. These dealers also facilitate relationships and adoption by fleets, which we believe could purchase hundreds or thousands of vehicles per year.
Company announces two-phase production road map; Phase 1 anticipates production of vehicles in the low hundreds in 2024, with breakeven gross margin on a unit level by the end of that year. Phase 2 targets production in low – mid thousands of vehicles and breakeven EBITDA by the end of 2025.
Company ended fiscal 1Q23 with liquidity of $126 million with no debt; anticipates liquidity of $65 million at year end, following the production of initial 25 P7 vehicles for internal testing and pilot deliveries.
________________________1 The Company’s order book is determined by management based on purchase orders received by the Company. The number of vehicles included in the order book as of May 22, 2023 include 76 vehicles under firm orders (i.e. binding orders) and the remainder of vehicles are of orders that are binding orders with certain additional conditions as set forth in the order.

The external fund manager backed by Berkshire Hathaway's Charlie Munger, Li Lu, makes no bones about it when he says 'The biggest investment risk is not the volatility of prices, but whether you will suffer a permanent loss of capital.' It's only natural to consider a company's balance sheet when you examine how risky it is, since debt is often involved when a business collapses. We note that Gem Diamonds Limited (LON:GEMD) does have debt on its balance sheet. But the real question is whether this debt is making the company risky.
Debt and other liabilities become risky for a business when it cannot easily fulfill those obligations, either with free cash flow or by raising capital at an attractive price. Part and parcel of capitalism is the process of 'creative destruction' where failed businesses are mercilessly liquidated by their bankers. However, a more frequent (but still costly) occurrence is where a company must issue shares at bargain-basement prices, permanently diluting shareholders, just to shore up its balance sheet. Of course, plenty of companies use debt to fund growth, without any negative consequences. The first step when considering a company's debt levels is to consider its cash and debt together.
View our latest analysis for Gem Diamonds
The image below, which you can click on for greater detail, shows that Gem Diamonds had debt of US$14.7m at the end of June 2021, a reduction from US$23.6m over a year. But it also has US$33.9m in cash to offset that, meaning it has US$19.2m net cash.
We can see from the most recent balance sheet that Gem Diamonds had liabilities of US$43.1m falling due within a year, and liabilities of US$112.0m due beyond that. Offsetting these obligations, it had cash of US$33.9m as well as receivables valued at US$6.55m due within 12 months. So its liabilities total US$114.6m more than the combination of its cash and short-term receivables.
This is a mountain of leverage relative to its market capitalization of US$116.4m. Should its lenders demand that it shore up the balance sheet, shareholders would likely face severe dilution. Despite its noteworthy liabilities, Gem Diamonds boasts net cash, so it's fair to say it does not have a heavy debt load!
Even more impressive was the fact that Gem Diamonds grew its EBIT by 406% over twelve months. If maintained that growth will make the debt even more manageable in the years ahead. There's no doubt that we learn most about debt from the balance sheet. But it is future earnings, more than anything, that will determine Gem Diamonds's ability to maintain a healthy balance sheet going forward. So if you're focused on the future you can check out this free report showing analyst profit forecasts.
Finally, while the tax-man may adore accounting profits, lenders only accept cold hard cash. Gem Diamonds may have net cash on the balance sheet, but it is still interesting to look at how well the business converts its earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) to free cash flow, because that will influence both its need for, and its capacity to manage debt. In the last three years, Gem Diamonds created free cash flow amounting to 4.2% of its EBIT, an uninspiring performance. That limp level of cash conversion undermines its ability to manage and pay down debt.
Although Gem Diamonds's balance sheet isn't particularly strong, due to the total liabilities, it is clearly positive to see that it has net cash of US$19.2m. And it impressed us with its EBIT growth of 406% over the last year. So we don't have any problem with Gem Diamonds's use of debt. There's no doubt that we learn most about debt from the balance sheet. However, not all investment risk resides within the balance sheet – far from it. Be aware that Gem Diamonds is showing 2 warning signs in our investment analysis , and 1 of those shouldn't be ignored…
When all is said and done, sometimes its easier to focus on companies that don't even need debt. Readers can access a list of growth stocks with zero net debt 100% free, right now.

To find a multi-bagger stock, what are the underlying trends we should look for in a business? Firstly, we'll want to see a proven return on capital employed (ROCE) that is increasing, and secondly, an expanding base of capital employed. If you see this, it typically means it's a company with a great business model and plenty of profitable reinvestment opportunities. With that in mind, we've noticed some promising trends at Lynas Rare Earths (ASX:LYC) so let's look a bit deeper.
Just to clarify if you're unsure, ROCE is a metric for evaluating how much pre-tax income (in percentage terms) a company earns on the capital invested in its business. Analysts use this formula to calculate it for Lynas Rare Earths:
Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets – Current Liabilities)
0.11 = AU$156m ÷ (AU$1.5b – AU$108m) (Based on the trailing twelve months to June 2021).
Thus, Lynas Rare Earths has an ROCE of 11%. On its own, that's a standard return, however it's much better than the 9.5% generated by the Metals and Mining industry.
Check out our latest analysis for Lynas Rare Earths
Above you can see how the current ROCE for Lynas Rare Earths compares to its prior returns on capital, but there's only so much you can tell from the past. If you're interested, you can view the analysts predictions in our free report on analyst forecasts for the company.
Lynas Rare Earths has recently broken into profitability so their prior investments seem to be paying off. The company was generating losses five years ago, but now it's earning 11% which is a sight for sore eyes. In addition to that, Lynas Rare Earths is employing 103% more capital than previously which is expected of a company that's trying to break into profitability. We like this trend, because it tells us the company has profitable reinvestment opportunities available to it, and if it continues going forward that can lead to a multi-bagger performance.
To the delight of most shareholders, Lynas Rare Earths has now broken into profitability. Since the stock has returned a staggering 1,087% to shareholders over the last five years, it looks like investors are recognizing these changes. With that being said, we still think the promising fundamentals mean the company deserves some further due diligence.
One more thing to note, we've identified 1 warning sign with Lynas Rare Earths and understanding this should be part of your investment process.
While Lynas Rare Earths may not currently earn the highest returns, we've compiled a list of companies that currently earn more than 25% return on equity. Check out this free list here.

Freeport-McMoRan (FCX) closed the most recent trading day at $32.20, moving -1.56% from the previous trading session. This change lagged the S&P 500's 1.05% gain on the day.
Prior to today's trading, shares of the mining company had lost 9.49% over the past month. This has lagged the Basic Materials sector's loss of 8.25% and the S&P 500's loss of 5.07% in that time.
FCX will be looking to display strength as it nears its next earnings release. On that day, FCX is projected to report earnings of $0.83 per share, which would represent year-over-year growth of 186.21%. Meanwhile, our latest consensus estimate is calling for revenue of $6.17 billion, up 60.3% from the prior-year quarter.
FCX's full-year Zacks Consensus Estimates are calling for earnings of $2.97 per share and revenue of $23.04 billion. These results would represent year-over-year changes of +450% and +62.27%, respectively.
It is also important to note the recent changes to analyst estimates for FCX. Recent revisions tend to reflect the latest near-term business trends. As such, positive estimate revisions reflect analyst optimism about the company's business and profitability.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 5, 2021 / Strategic Metals Ltd. (TSXV:SMD) ("Strategic") announces promising results from a program of geological mapping, prospecting and hand trenching, which was recently completed at its Kluane gold project in southwestern Yukon (Figure 1). The project hosts an extensive system of high-grade gold veins, one of which was trenched in 2021. Highlights from recent trenching at the Rikus Vein include:
20.54 g/t gold over 2.1 m including 40.5 g/t over 0.98 m;
13.84 g/t gold over 2 m including 27.2 g/t gold over 1 m;
8.60 g/t gold over 5 m including 18.6 g/t over 2 m;
7.83 g/t gold over 1.65 m including 20.6 g/t gold over 0.57 m; and
6.48 g/t gold over 2.2 m including 11.25 g/t gold over 1.2 m.
"Hand trenching has now identified attractive drill targets in several locations within this camp-scale property, and follow-up of strong geochemical and geophysical anomalies offers excellent potential for additional discoveries" states Doug Eaton, CEO of Strategic Metals. "We believe that the Kluane project could host the next multi-million ounce deposit in Yukon".
The Kluane project is located 45 km north-northwest of Haines Junction, 29 km west of the Aishihik hydro-electric dam and 10 km from the closest road. It lies within the Traditional Territory of the Champagne and Aishihik First Nation, which have signed a land claim agreement with Yukon and Canada and an exploration benefits agreement with the Company. The project comprises 279 contiguous mineral claims encompassing an area totalling approximately 5550 hectares (55.5 sq. km.).
The Kluane vein system straddles the Kluhini River thrust fault, which juxtaposes Cretaceous and older, schist and paragneiss units of Kluane schist to south with granodiorite and quartz-diorite phases of the Paleocene, Ruby Range batholith to the north. Mineralized veins have been discovered across the entire project area, in both the metamorphic and intrusive rocks. The 2021 hand trenches are located in the southeastern part of the claim block where the veins are discordant to foliation and layering in the metamorphic host rocks (Figures 2 and 3). The trenches and nearby historical drill holes trace the mineralization over a length of 710 m and through a vertical range of 185 m. The following table shows results from the trenches. Historical drilling supports the trench results but the relatively shallow, small diameter holes had poor core recoveries, averaging about 50% in veins. Drill results appear as an insert on Figure 2.

Mineralized veins contain sulphide minerals and occasionally coarse native gold, in a gangue comprised of milky white, granular to massive quartz and lesser, tan to cream carbonate. The sulphide minerals occur as disseminations and in semi-massive bands. Arsenopyrite is by far the most abundant sulphide mineral but traces of galena, chalcopyrite and pyrite have been noted. Most mineralized veins are scorodite-stained at surface because sulphide minerals are usually wholly or partially oxidized. Mineralized veins rarely outcrop and are usually marked by north-trending recessive topographic linears. Samples of mineralized vein material typically contain greater than 5 g/t gold, with the highest grade rock sample assaying 225 g/t gold (Figure 4).
Soil geochemical sampling has outlined numerous strong anomalies for gold and/or arsenic, some of which form relatively continuous bands that are more than 2000 m long. Several of the soil anomalies coincide with the surface traces of known veins, but many others are unexplained. Peak soil values are 3280 ppb gold and 7350 ppm arsenic (Figures 5 and 6). A horizontal-loop electromagnetic (HLEM) survey that was conducted over part of the property identified a number of conductors, which coincide with known veins and soil geochemical anomalies (Figure 4). Some of these conductors are in areas of deep and/or frozen overburden, which has hampered prospecting and trenching efforts. Property-wide LiDAR imaging has highlighted several recessive linears that have not been systematically prospected or soil sampled (Figure 4).
Age dating and tectonic reconstruction to allow for displacement along the nearby Denali fault suggest that the veins at the Kluane project may belong to the same metallogenic event as the highly-productive orogenic veins of the Juneau gold belt, located to the south in Alaska (Figure 1). Mines in the Juneau belt produced at total of 6.7 million oz of gold prior to 1945 and production continues at the Kensington Mine, which is owned by Coeur Mining. However, magnetic data and strong positive correlations of gold with tungsten and bismuth, suggest that there may also be some over-printing by an intrusion-related hydrothermal system at the Kluane project.
Rock sample preparation and multi-element analyses were carried out at ALS in Whitehorse, YT and North Vancouver, BC, respectively. Each sample was dried, fine crushed to better than 70% passing 2 mm and then a 250 g split was pulverized to better than 85% passing 75 microns. The fine fractions were analyzed for gold by fire assay followed by atomic absorption (Au-AA24) and 48 other elements by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ME-MS61). An additional 50 g charge was further analysed for gold by gravimetric analysis (Au-GRA22).

Hastings Technology Metals Limited (ASX:HAS) is possibly approaching a major achievement in its business, so we would like to shine some light on the company. Hastings Technology Metals Limited engages in the exploration and development of rare earth deposits in Australia. The AU$426m market-cap company announced a latest loss of AU$6.3m on 30 June 2021 for its most recent financial year result. Many investors are wondering about the rate at which Hastings Technology Metals will turn a profit, with the big question being “when will the company breakeven?” We've put together a brief outline of industry analyst expectations for the company, its year of breakeven and its implied growth rate.
View our latest analysis for Hastings Technology Metals
Consensus from 2 of the Australian Metals and Mining analysts is that Hastings Technology Metals is on the verge of breakeven. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2022, before generating positive profits of AU$5.5m in 2023. So, the company is predicted to breakeven approximately 2 years from now. How fast will the company have to grow each year in order to reach the breakeven point by 2023? Working backwards from analyst estimates, it turns out that they expect the company to grow 68% year-on-year, on average, which signals high confidence from analysts. Should the business grow at a slower rate, it will become profitable at a later date than expected.
Underlying developments driving Hastings Technology Metals' growth isn’t the focus of this broad overview, however, bear in mind that typically a metal and mining business has lumpy cash flows which are contingent on the natural resource mined and stage at which the company is operating. So, a high growth rate is not out of the ordinary, particularly when a company is in a period of investment.
One thing we’d like to point out is that Hastings Technology Metals has no debt on its balance sheet, which is quite unusual for a cash-burning metals and mining company, which typically has high debt relative to its equity. The company currently operates purely off its shareholder funding and has no debt obligation, reducing concerns around repayments and making it a less risky investment.

QUEBEC CITY, Oct. 01, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Stelmine Canada (TSXV: STH) (“Stelmine” or the “Company) is pleased to announce that crews are now mobilizing for diamond drilling at the Company’s 100%-owned Courcy Property in northeastern Quebec to follow up on the discovery of near-surface high-grade gold in “Zone 1” where the last historical drill hole returned 42 metres grading 4.2 g/t Au including 105 g/t over 1.5 metres within a section of 12.3 g/t Au over 13.5 metres. The 42-metre discovery intercept (core interval) started just 12 metres downhole.
The 3,000-metre Phase 1 diamond drilling program at Courcy, scheduled to commence on or about October 5, 2021, will target gold-bearing zones at the core of a folded thrust fault exposing highly deformed and metamorphosed garnet and sulphide-rich iron formations and amphibolites at the hinge point of a broad antiform.
Gold mineralization observed in Zone 1 appears shallow dipping and is associated with a 21-km-long fault zone discovered by Stelmine geologists who followed up SOQUEM’s limited historical work carried out more than a decade ago. SOQUEM drilled just eight shallow holes at Courcy totalling less than 800 metres, all in “Zone 1”, and the last hole returned the very significant 42-metre intercept with the core data reviewed by Stelmine geologists. Over the last 3 years, extensive geological and structural mapping of the area by the Stelmine team has produced a robust geological model for Courcy.
High-Grade Gold 2.4 km South of Discovery Hole
Approximately 2.4 km south of SOQUEM’s 2006 discovery hole, historical channel sampling returned gold values as high as 167 g/t Au over 0.5 metre in one of several prospective zones already outlined at Courcy (“Zone 4”). Extensive exploration of this zone by Stelmine confirms the gold potential with the discovery of new showings.
Courcy lies at the under-explored eastern edge of the 600-km-long Opinaca metasedimentary basin that also hosts Newmont’s Eleonore mine on the western side of the James Bay Territory. Stelmine’s total land package in the Caniapiscau district (Courcy, Mercator plus three other properties) now encompasses more than 800 km2. These properties feature several geological similarities to Eleonore.

Detroit is seeing some stiff competition these days – and not just from Japan and Korea. The economy is shifting toward green tech, and new automotive companies are popping up to take advantage of the newly opened electric vehicle (EV) and battery playing field. Just as a century and more ago there were scores of auto makers competing to build the best combustion engine cars, and scores of designs in the game, ranging from external combustion steam cars to rotary engine motorcycles, so today the EV field presents a wide open front for new companies to innovate and find the best designs for mass market electrically powered cars.
The trick now, for investors, is to find the companies that look like winners as the EV sector expands, grows, and matures. It may be too early to tell which EV makers are going to hang in for the long haul and dominate the market a century from now – or even if electric cars will still be on the road in the distant future. But the data tools on the TipRanks platform have helped us pick out three companies that look like winners in the near- to mid-term, over the next 12 months. These are companies with low-cost shares to entice investors, and – according to the Wall Street stock experts – the potential to double or more in that time. Here are the details.
REE Automotive (REE)
We’ll start with REE automotive, a unique automotive design company that uses high tech to redesign the critical area of a car – the space between the chassis and the wheel – integrating critical vehicle components such as brakes, steering, and electric drive motors into modular configurations, effectively building the car specifically for its target application and market.
All of that sounds like a mouthful, but what it means is, REE’s design allows for more passenger space and more cargo space on a fully-flat, electrically powered vehicle platform. The design is intended facilitate both production and use of the fully assembled electric vehicles.
Earlier this year, REE announced its intention to go public via a SPAC merger, with the blank check company 10X Capital Venture Acquisition Corporation. The move, completed on July 22, saw the REE ticker start on the NASDAQ and brought the company some $288 million in new capital. Since then, the merger has disappointed; REE’s market cap has slipped from $3.1 billion to the current $1.8 billion.
Although the stock has slipped since the SPAC transaction, REE had several notable successes in the first half of the year. The company secured collaborations with four cutting edge, high-tech automotive manufacturers around the world, agreements that will enable REE and its partners to work together on building out new EV and battery technologies. The company also secured vital sections of its supply chain system, in preparation for starting mass production of its flat platform chassis EVs in 2023.
Finally, in a move that shows production and commercialization will be focused in the US, REE on July 23 announced that its US headquarters will be located in Austin, Texas. The Lone Star State has been the epicenter of US job creation recently, and has built a reputation as a business-friendly locale.
Cowen analyst Jeffrey Osborne initiated his coverage of REE with a Buy rating and a $15 price target that suggests a powerful 160% one-year upside.
Backing his stance, Osborne writes, “We are constructive on REE's modular EV chassis approach trimming the time and investment required in building new platforms. Its REEcorner and REEboard aim to serve as building blocks for modular EV production. We are positive on its capability to provide mission-specific vehicles as in our view it opens several doors to optimization, particularly in the commercial vehicle market. REE's flat chassis will enable space optimization, yielding lesser trips via volume maximization… The light and medium commercial vehicle markets are ripe for electrification given their "return to base" operation as well as focus on total cost of ownership (TCO), and we view REE as potentially well-positioned to unlock value.” (To watch Osborne’s track record, click here.)
This newly public stock has 3 positive ratings on file, for a Strong Buy analyst consensus. The shares are priced at $5.77 and their $16.67 average price target is even more bullish than Osborne allows, implying an upside of 189% in the year ahead. (See REE’s stock analysis at TipRanks.)
ElectraMeccanica Vehicles Corporation (SOLO)
Next up, ElectraMeccanica, takes a nearly opposite approach to the EV market. This company has put together the Solo, a single-seat, three-wheeled EV designed specifically for the short range urban commute. The Solo features small size, a 100-mile rage, and an 80 mph top speed. This small one-seater has a door on either side of body, or easy ingress/egress, and boot at the rear. The vehicle emphasizes the size and maneuverability needed to fit into tight urban spaces.
The Solo is being marketed to urban residents as a solution for short-distance driving, as well as to rental fleets and delivery companies. In the delivery role, the ‘cargo’ version of the car has an enlarged trunk, and targets ‘last mile’ delivery – a niche for which electric vehicles are well suited. While ElectraMeccanica’s Solo is not yet in production for delivery, the company plans to start shipping to customers by the end of the year – and is now taking reservations on the car, for $250.
ElectraMeccanica is also moving to expand its product line, with two additional all-electric vehicles. Both are styled along more traditional ‘car’ lines than the Solo. The Electric Roadster and sporty Tofino both offer higher performance, in speed and range per charge, than the Solo, and it is reflected in pricing. Where the Solo starts at $18,500, the Roadster is predicted to have a $150,000 price tag when it hits showrooms.
The company is continuing work on its Arizona manufacturing facility, where production vehicles will be assembled and the engineers will have facilities for technical research. When up and running, the facility will fill 235,000 square feet, employ up to 500 people, and turn out 20,000 Solo vehicles annually.
5-star analyst Craig Irwin, of Roth Capital, notes this company’s progress toward full production and delivery, as well as its sound balance sheet. He writes, “Electra Meccanica made healthy progress towards ramping commercial production and deliveries during 2Q21, with first SOLO deliveries now likely later this quarter. Construction of the company's Mesa, AZ facility is making rapid progress, and should drive substantial cost savings that enable the steep deliveries ramp expected in 2023. We expect the $250m cash position to provide adequate funding through facility completion and working capital to support near-term growth. We would be buyers for improving longer-term growth visibility.” (To watch Irwin’s track record, click here.)
These comments back a Buy rating, and the $12.25 price target implies a robust 12-month upside potential of 252%. Irwin’s is the only SOLO review posted during the past 3 months. The stock is currently trading at $3.48 per share. (See ElectraMeccanica’s stock analysis at TipRanks.)
Ideanomics (IDEX)
Let’s wrap up this list with Ideanomics, a company that lives in both the EV battery and the fintech sectors. As a financial tech company, Ideanomics works to make capital available for group purchase discounts on commercial EVs, battery backs, and power usage. Financial services are both powered and secured by AI tech and blockchain encryption.
Even though the EV market is new, companies are ramping it up, buying vehicle fleets and establishing infrastructure. These are activities well within the purview of Ideanomics to incentivize and fund. The company’s stated goals are to increase confidence in the electrification of the vehicle sector, and to provide a transparent and profitable financial service to expand and buy into EVs.
This company’s Mobile Energy Global division, its EV segment, has been moving to expand in recent months. The company has a network of subsidiaries involved in EVs, in charging infrastructure, and in energy production, which it describes all together as ‘the three pillars’ of the EV sector. Ideanomics controls the only electric tractor manufacturer in the US, Solectrac, and its Wave wireless high-power charging network helps maintain the largest fully electric mass transit bus fleet in the US. And, at the end of August, Ideanomics acquired VIA Motors in a 100% stock transaction. Utah-based VIA produces Class 2, 3, 4, and 5 size electric trucks for short-haul and mid-mile delivery runs.
In 2Q21, Ideanomics’ revenue grew sequentially for the sixth quarter in a row, reaching $33.2 million, coming in slightly ahead of the consensus estimate. Gross profit came in at $9.3 million. The company has a full war chest to fund further activities, with $396 million in cash on hand as of June 30.
In coverage of this stock, Roth’s Craig Irwin notes that Ideanomics has multiple paths to profitability, in part due to smart acquisitions. The analyst writes of this company, “Ideanomics reported strong 2Q21 progress with revenue ahead of our estimates. The quarter's results marked first revenue contribution from the US Hybrid and Solectrac acquisitions, supplementing continued strong revenue production at Timeos. The company's WAVE inductive charging business now reports a pipeline of over $100m, suggesting this group could be one of the fastest growing in 2022.”
In line with his comments, Irwin rates the stock as a Buy with a $7 price target to suggest an upside of a hefty 191% from the current share price of $2.40.
Ideanomics is another name going under Wall Street's radar right now and there are currently no other reviews on record. (See Ideanomics’ stock analysis at TipRanks.)

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Search Minerals Inc. (TSXV: SMY | OTCQB: SHCMF) (“Search” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that approximately 80 tonnes of bulk sample material is being prepared at our facilities in St. Lewis, NL to be delivered to our testing partner SGS Canada (Lakefield), ON. The bulk sample from our Critical Rare Earth Element District in SE Labrador will consist of 40 tonnes each from our Deep Fox resource and from our Foxtrot resource. The bulk sample will be used to scale up our successful bench scale results using Low Intensity Magnetic Separation (“LIMS”) along with Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separation process (“WHIMS”) to produce a Rare Earth Element concentrate for further testing of the Direct Extraction Process. (see Search Minerals news release dated April 12, 2021).
The use of magnetic separation for rare earth ore processing is uniquely suited to our deposits in SE Labrador. The 80 tonnes bulk sample is expected to demonstrate that a continuous process involving crushing, grinding, and magnetic separation (LIMS and WHIMS) can treat large samples of mineralization from Foxtrot and Deep Fox and achieve the potential recoveries and quality of concentrates suggested by the small scale testing.
The magnetic pilot plant testing is the first phase of a four phase sequentially planned program.
The four phases are outlined below with the ultimate goal of producing Neodymium metal. Search is working with our testing and government partners to finalize proposals and potential co-funding for the four-phase program.
PHASE 1 Magnetic Separation (SGS Canada)
80 t of Deep Fox and Foxtrot material
Stage 1 – the material will be crushed and ground to 270 mesh particle size;
Stage 2 – the material goes through Low Intensity Magnetic Separation (LIMS), which will capture the highly magnetic magnetite, to produce an enriched iron concentrate, suitable for sale;
Stage 3 – the remaining material will be processed through a Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separation (WHIMS), to produce an enriched REE concentrate to be further processed using our patented Direct Extraction technology (Phase 2). Approximately 21 tonnes of concentrate should be produced;
Stage 4 – the balance of the material will be stored for future testing for Zirconium and Hafnium recovery and waste characterization for environmental permitting.
PHASE 2 Direct Extraction
21 tonnes of magnetic concentrate, expected from Phase 1, will be processed through a Demonstration Plant operation to produce a concentrated mixed rare earth carbonate containing an expected 0.7 tonnes of REE’s for refining and separation into individual oxides.
PHASE 3 Rare Earth Separation
The mixed rare earth carbonate from Phase 3 will be processed in a solvent extraction pilot plant to produce individual oxides of the magnet making elements Neodymium and Praseodymium.
PHASE 4 Rare Earth Metal Production
A large sample of Neodymium oxide from Phase 3 will be processed to Neodymium metal of suitable quality and quantity to qualify for the production of Neodymium based magnets.
Greg Andrews, President/CEO states: “We are excited to complete our processing flowsheet from mining to magnet making metals as part of our ‘Sprint to Production’. The advantage of including the magnetic separation process is expected to be a smaller footprint for our Direct Extraction processing facility with lower capital and operating costs. The flowsheet also provides for a potential revenue stream for iron concentrate and zircon concentrate. The mining and production of a rare earth concentrate by WHIMS magnetic separation can be set up at each resource and the higher-grade concentrate transported to a centrally located Direct Extraction process plant with access to a deep water port, chemical and reagent supply, technical work force and shipping routes for finished products.”
Dr. David Dreisinger added: “Our physical separation and chemical processing will each produce a dry-stackable waste residue, which is an important design philosophy Search has maintained with the changed flowsheet. The volume of material being treated by our Direct Extraction Process will be reduced by over 70%, which will greatly reduce the size of facility, with an associated reduction in reagents and other operating costs.”
Search is following the COVID protocols which are currently in place within the Province of Newfoundland & Labrador to ensure the safety of our employees and the communities where we work.
Qualified Persons:
Dr. David Dreisinger, Ph.D., P.Eng, is the Company’s Vice President, Metallurgy, and Qualified Person (as defined by National Instrument 43-101) who has supervised the preparation of and approved the technical information reported herein. The company will endeavour to meet high standards of integrity, transparency, and consistency in reporting technical content, including geological and assay (e.g., REE) data.
