American Resources (NASDAQ:AREC) and its subsidiary ReElement Technologies have reaffirmed their commitment to U.S. critical mineral independence through their modular, multi-mineral refining platform. The company is currently the only U.S.-based solution capable of economically separating both heavy and light rare earth elements.
ReElement is actively producing magnet-grade rare earth oxides daily, addressing the critical bottleneck in global mineral supply chain through cost-effective midstream processing. Their achievements include reaching 99.5%+ purity levels for various elements including neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, and terbium oxides.
The announcement comes as China has implemented new export restrictions on rare earth minerals including samarium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, lutetium, scandium, and yttrium-related compounds as of April 3, 2025. ReElement's proprietary LAD chromatography technology offers advantages in environmental safety, lower capital expenditures, and scalable processing capacity.
American Resources (NASDAQ:AREC) has announced a significant expansion of rare earth oxide production at its ReElement Technologies' Noblesville facility. The company has completed Phase 2 expansion in April 2025, doubling its daily production capacity of high-purity (99.5%+) light and heavy rare earth oxides.
The expansion demonstrates ReElement's unique modular refining platform, which is currently the only U.S.-based scalable solution for economically separating both heavy and light rare earth elements. Phase 2 was completed in under 3 weeks, while Phase 3 is scheduled for completion by May/June, expected to triple production levels compared to Phase 2.
The facility processes key rare earth elements including neodymium (Nd), praseodymium (Pr), dysprosium (Dy), and terbium (Tb). This expansion comes in response to surging demand for domestically sourced rare earth oxides, particularly following recent global trade shifts and executive orders by President Trump supporting U.S. mineral independence.
American Resources (NASDAQ:AREC) has unveiled a groundbreaking mobile modular rare earth leaching solution to extract valuable materials from coal and mine waste. The company plans to deploy this technology across its 30,000-acre property and offer licensing options globally.
Through its ReElement Technologies division, the company has demonstrated successful economic recovery of magnet-grade rare earth elements (Nd, NdPr, and Dy) from coal waste, along with valuable byproducts like High Purity Alumina and Silicon Dioxide. Initial testing showed concentration of over 500 ppm of rare earth content in their West Virginia property.
The company is evaluating capitalization strategies, including a Form D offering and potential tokenized platform. ReElement is currently the only U.S. company producing both heavy and light rare earth oxides at magnet-grade purity, using a proprietary refining process that requires fewer chemicals and lower capital costs.
ReElement Technologies, a subsidiary of American Resources (NASDAQ:AREC), has secured a $150 million pre-money valuation through a U.S.-focused private capital investment round. The financing is structured as a $20 million Convertible Note, with approximately 60% already committed or funded.
The company has commissioned new commercial-scale equipment at its Indiana facilities, including a third chromatography unit and a Bipolar Electrodialysis Unit (BPED). These additions enhance production capabilities and process efficiency for rare earth and critical mineral refining.
The announcement comes amid China's recent export restrictions on critical rare earth minerals, including samarium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, lutetium, scandium, and yttrium-related materials. ReElement positions itself as the only U.S. company currently separating and purifying heavy rare earth elements under Chinese export control, addressing the bottleneck in global critical mineral supply chain processing.
American Resources (NASDAQ:AREC) and its subsidiary ReElement Technologies have announced their participation in two major industry conferences in April 2025.
The first event is the Centri Capital Conference at Nasdaq MarketSite in New York on April 22, where CEO Mark Jensen will participate in a panel discussion led by Cantor Fitzgerald. The second event is the Battery Innovation Center (BIC) Industry Luncheon in Indianapolis on April 29, where ReElement's Corporate Controller Steven Frankowski will be speaking.
ReElement Technologies specializes in refining rare earth and critical battery elements through its multi-mineral, multi-feedstock platform technology. The company focuses on recycling materials from rare earth permanent magnets and lithium-ion batteries, along with processing concentrated ores and coal-based waste streams.
ReElement Technologies, a subsidiary of American Resources (NASDAQ:AREC), has joined the DARPA-funded Critical Minerals Forum (CMF), a non-profit trade association focused on building resilient critical minerals supply chains. This development aligns with a recent executive order invoking the Defense Production Act to enhance domestic mineral production.
ReElement's technology stands out as the only economically viable solution for separating and refining heavy rare earth elements in the U.S. Their advanced refining process offers key advantages including:
- Aqueous chemistry eliminating toxic solvents
- Lower capital expenditures through efficient chromatography units
- High versatility across various feedstocks
- Modular and scalable capacity
- Localized processing capabilities
The CMF collaboration, through DARPA's OPEN program, utilizes AI-driven forecasts for pricing, supply, and demand data, enabling members to make informed investment decisions.
American Resources (NASDAQ:AREC) has secured a 9-month extension of a $150 million Kentucky Industrial Building Revenue Bond Purchase Agreement through its affiliate ReElement Technologies. The bonds support the development of the Kentucky Lithium complex near Kite, Kentucky.
The facility is designed with an initial capacity to produce 15,000 metric tons per year of battery-grade lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide, along with rare earth oxides refining. The project utilizes ReElement's patented multi-modal chromatography technology, achieving 99.96% pure battery-grade Li2CO3 from spodumene ore and 99.5% separated rare earth oxides from mining waste.
Key features include:
- Low carbon footprint operations using solar energy and battery storage
- Brownfield redevelopment of a former coal mining site
- Creation of approximately 113 jobs
- Implementation of Ligand Assisted Displacement (LAD) chromatography for cost-effective and environmentally safe mineral processing
