CoTec Holdings (OTCQB:CTHCF, TSXV:CTH) purchased a commercial-scale Salter Cyclone Multi-Gravity-Separator (MGS) to be installed at Corem testing laboratory in Québec, Canada, announced October 28, 2025.
The MGS targets recovery and upgrading of fine and ultra-fine mineral particles, enabling high-grade concentrates from low-grade tailings and middlings. CoTec says the unit will support the Lac Jeannine Feasibility Study with BBA for additional iron recovery and accelerate scale-up from lab to commercial data for engineering and valuation. The company notes prior February 2025 exclusivity and collaboration with Salter to apply MGS for iron and manganese recovery.
CoTec (TSXV:CTH / OTCQB:CTHCF) engaged Québec-based BBA to complete a bankable Feasibility Study (FS) for the Lac Jeannine Iron Tailings Project. The FS will apply Salter Cyclone Multi-Gravity Separators (MGS) and target direct-reduction (DR) grade iron concentrate for green steel. The study follows a 2024 PEA with a pre-tax NPV of US$93.6M, IRR 38% and initial capex US$64.6M. CoTec completed a 2025 drilling campaign; results and bulk sample are expected in Q1 2026. The FS will be staged and is expected to complete by H2 2026. Inclusion of adjacent tailings could almost double life of mine.
CoTec Holdings (OTCQB:CTHCF) announced that its U.S. joint venture, HyProMag USA, has acquired three skid-mounted Inserma Anoia S.L magnet and PCB separation units for rare earth permanent magnet recycling operations. These units will be strategically positioned across Texas, Nevada, and South Carolina recycling hubs.
The Inserma units are designed to be co-located at hyperscale data centers, shredding, and recycling facilities, offering a closed-loop and secure recycling network within the United States. The company emphasizes that this technology provides a competitive advantage in feedstock processing and supports their magnet recycling and manufacturing facilities with lowest cost and carbon footprint.
CoTec Holdings (OTCQB:CTHCF) provided an update on HyProMag USA's rare earth permanent magnet recycling facility project in Dallas-Fort Worth. The Detailed Design phase is 25% complete, incorporating experience from UK and German facilities. Key developments include the addition of Advanced Grain Boundary Diffusion techniques and a tripled throughput capacity at the University of Birmingham pilot facility.
The project has already produced 900kg of recycled NdFeB alloy powder at the UK facility. HyProMag USA has shortlisted four site options and plans to begin permitting in Q3 2025, targeting first magnet production in H1 2027. The company is also planning expansion to Nevada and South Carolina, while initiating a Concept Study for a "Long Loop" recycling process.
CoTec Holdings (OTCQB:CTHCF) announced that its joint venture HyProMag USA is conducting a Concept Study to evaluate operations expansion into Nevada and South Carolina.
