Metallium Comments on MP Materials/Apple Partnership to Recycle Rare Earths Magnets
Metallium (OTCQX: MTMCF) has responded to the recently announced $500-million partnership between MP Materials and Apple for recycling rare earth magnets in the United States. CEO Michael Walshe emphasized that this partnership validates the company's strategic direction in building a domestic rare earth supply chain.
The company highlighted several key aspects: strengthening U.S. Department of Defense support providing long-term floor pricing, the emergence of recycling as a core supply stream, and Metallium's complementary role in the supply chain through its patented Flash Joule Heating technology. This innovative process recovers valuable elements including NdPr, DyTb, Gallium, Germanium, Indium, and Gold from various feedstocks while removing low-value elements.
Metallium (OTCQX: MTMCF) ha risposto alla recente partnership da 500 milioni di dollari tra MP Materials e Apple per il riciclo di magneti di terre rare negli Stati Uniti. Il CEO Michael Walshe ha sottolineato che questa collaborazione conferma la direzione strategica dell'azienda nel costruire una filiera nazionale per le terre rare.
L'azienda ha evidenziato diversi aspetti chiave: il rafforzamento del supporto del Dipartimento della Difesa degli Stati Uniti, che garantisce prezzi minimi a lungo termine, l'emergere del riciclo come fonte primaria di approvvigionamento e il ruolo complementare di Metallium nella catena di fornitura grazie alla sua tecnologia brevettata Flash Joule Heating. Questo processo innovativo consente di recuperare elementi preziosi come NdPr, DyTb, Gallio, Germanio, Indio e Oro da diverse materie prime, eliminando al contempo gli elementi di scarso valore.
Metallium (OTCQX: MTMCF) ha respondido a la recientemente anunciada asociación de 500 millones de dólares entre MP Materials y Apple para el reciclaje de imanes de tierras raras en Estados Unidos. El CEO Michael Walshe destacó que esta alianza valida la dirección estratégica de la empresa para construir una cadena de suministro nacional de tierras raras.
La compañía resaltó varios aspectos clave: el fortalecimiento del apoyo del Departamento de Defensa de EE.UU., que proporciona precios mínimos a largo plazo, el surgimiento del reciclaje como una fuente principal de suministro, y el papel complementario de Metallium en la cadena de suministro a través de su tecnología patentada Flash Joule Heating. Este proceso innovador recupera elementos valiosos como NdPr, DyTb, Galio, Germanio, Indio y Oro de diversas materias primas, eliminando los elementos de bajo valor.
Metallium (OTCQX: MTMCF)는 최근 발표된 MP Materials와 Apple 간의 5억 달러 규모의 미국 내 희토류 자석 재활용 파트너십에 대해 반응했습니다. CEO Michael Walshe는 이 파트너십이 국내 희토류 공급망 구축이라는 회사의 전략적 방향을 입증한다고 강조했습니다.
회사는 여러 핵심 사항을 강조했습니다: 미 국방부의 지원 강화로 장기 최저 가격 보장, 재활용이 핵심 공급원으로 부상, 그리고 Metallium이 특허받은 Flash Joule Heating 기술을 통해 공급망에서 보완적 역할을 한다는 점입니다. 이 혁신적 공정은 다양한 원료에서 NdPr, DyTb, 갈륨, 게르마늄, 인듐, 금 등 귀중한 원소를 회수하며 저가 원소는 제거합니다.
Metallium (OTCQX: MTMCF) a réagi au partenariat récemment annoncé de 500 millions de dollars entre MP Materials et Apple pour le recyclage des aimants en terres rares aux États-Unis. Le PDG Michael Walshe a souligné que ce partenariat valide la stratégie de l'entreprise visant à construire une chaîne d'approvisionnement nationale en terres rares.
L'entreprise a mis en avant plusieurs points clés : le renforcement du soutien du Département de la Défense des États-Unis assurant des prix plancher à long terme, l'émergence du recyclage comme source principale d'approvisionnement, et le rôle complémentaire de Metallium dans la chaîne d'approvisionnement grâce à sa technologie brevetée Flash Joule Heating. Ce procédé innovant permet de récupérer des éléments précieux tels que NdPr, DyTb, Gallium, Germanium, Indium et Or à partir de diverses matières premières, tout en éliminant les éléments de faible valeur.
Metallium (OTCQX: MTMCF) hat auf die kürzlich angekündigte 500-Millionen-Dollar-Partnerschaft zwischen MP Materials und Apple zur Wiederverwertung von Seltenen-Erden-Magneten in den USA reagiert. CEO Michael Walshe betonte, dass diese Partnerschaft die strategische Ausrichtung des Unternehmens auf den Aufbau einer inländischen Lieferkette für Seltene Erden bestätigt.
Das Unternehmen hob mehrere Schlüsselaspekte hervor: die Stärkung der Unterstützung durch das US-Verteidigungsministerium, das langfristige Mindestpreise garantiert, das Aufkommen von Recycling als zentrale Lieferquelle und Metalliums ergänzende Rolle in der Lieferkette durch seine patentierte Flash Joule Heating-Technologie. Dieses innovative Verfahren gewinnt wertvolle Elemente wie NdPr, DyTb, Gallium, Germanium, Indium und Gold aus verschiedenen Ausgangsmaterialien zurück und entfernt dabei minderwertige Elemente.
- Strategic validation from MP Materials-Apple $500M partnership strengthens market position
- U.S. Department of Defense support provides long-term floor pricing security
- Patented Flash Joule Heating technology offers competitive advantage in metal recovery
- Modular facilities provide flexible processing solutions with reduced energy consumption and waste
- Company remains in commercialization phase of its technology
- Operates in highly competitive rare earth processing market
Says Move Sends Strong Signal that Major Players are Serious about Building Local, Circular Rare Earth Supply Chain in
Reinforces Metallium's Efforts in This Area
He noted the following:
- Policy support from the
U.S. government is strengthening as evidenced by theU.S. Department of Defense's backing of MP Materials. "The U.S. DoD's actions provide long-term floor pricing for rare earths, and demonstrate the policy direction is clear," said Walshe. He notes that this improves the investment case for all domestic producers of rare earths, as well as those who participate in the industry, such as Metallium. - Recycling is now a core supply and no longer a side stream. "Apple's move confirms that high-grade waste like e-waste, magnet swarf and industrial residues are becoming strategic feedstocks. Metallium is recovering Neodymium-Praseodymium (NdPr); Dysprosium and Terbium (DyTb); Gallium (Ga); Germanium (GE); Indium (In) and Gold (Au) and more from these sources using our patented Flash Joule Heating process."
- Metallium enables, not competes with, the supply-chain. "We work with rare earth developers and producers to treat a wide range of feedstocks including Mixed rare earth carbonate; Monazite-rich tailings; flotation concentrates; magnet scrap and swarf and other high-value industrial residues," he said. He added that Metallium's technology helps remove low-value or deleterious elements such as Lanthanum (La); Calcium (Ce); Iron (Fe) and Aluminum (Al) and phosphate before final separation, boosting overall recovery and economics.
- A modular model with strategic value. Walshe affirmed that the company's
U.S. -based, modular facilities offer original equipment manufacturers and recyclers a clean, flexible solution to process complex materials quickly. Flash Joule Technology rapidly heats materials in a controlled atmosphere to extract metals from the feedstocks. "Our technology has the potential to revolutionize metal recovery by reducing energy consumption, reagent use, and waste, offering a more economical and environmentally friendly alternative," affirmed Walshe.
Walsh said that the MP-Apple deal highlights just how much demand exists for secure, ESG-aligned supply chains, and Metallium is well placed to support that shift.
