Metallium Secures Binding Exclusive Rights to Treat Heavy REE-Rich Harts Range Project Following Exceptional Upgrade of Raw Ore from the Project after Flash Joule Heating (FJH) Treatment
Metallium (OTCQX: MTMCF) announced that Flash Joule Heating (FJH) treatment on Harts Range ore raised TREO from 1.7% to 35.0% in a single solvent-free step and delivered 53x dysprosium (Dy) and 21x terbium (Tb) enrichment.
Metallium secured exclusive, project-linked rights from New Frontier Minerals to apply FJH to all Harts Range material for at least 10 years, with royalties and process licensing on future Dy/Tb sales. The company plans to test production of Dy/Tb “super-concentrate” at its Texas Technology Campus for potential U.S. magnet and defense qualification.

FJH Treatment Resulted in an Exceptional Beneficiation Result Increasing TREO from
"These results highlight the disruptive potential of Metallium's technology. To take an unprocessed rock sample and produce a Dy/Tb-rich concentrate in one rapid, solvent-free step is exceptional," said Michael Walshe, Managing Director and CEO of Metallium. "It reinforces our position at the forefront of building a Western supply chain for the world's most strategic rare-earth metals. To achieve a more than 20-fold TREO upgrade and more than a 50-fold enrichment of dysprosium from a raw, un-beneficiated ore sample in a single flash is unprecedented in global heavy-rare-earth beneficiation," he stressed.
Walsh added that the
The beneficiation results demonstrated that a single-step treatment with FJH increased TREO from
As a result of this exceptional performance, Metallium was granted exclusive, project-attached rights by NFM to apply FJH to all Harts Range ore and concentrates for at least 10 years, automatically extending through production. Contractually, any future potential owner of Harts Range must also use the FJH process.
Metallium will also earn a royalty on recovered product and a process licensing on all future Dy/Tb sales from Harts Range Material.
Initial surface sampling indicates that Harts Range hosts an unusually Dy/Tb-rich mineral system, with grade characteristics and mineralization rarely encountered in other deposits worldwide. Early data underscores FJH's capability to unlock heavy rare earths directly from processed ore.
