Energy Fuels (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR) has partnered with Neo Performance Materials (TSX: NEO) in an initiative that will see feedstock from the United States being used to manufacture separated rare earth (“RE”) materials outside China for the first time in over 20 years. “A leading U.S.-based uranium mining company, Energy Fuels, has been working with Neo for almost a year in a technical collaboration focused on establishing a monazite processing and RE carbonate production capacity at Energy Fuels’ White Mesa Mill plant in Utah,” reads an article detailing the partnership. “That successful collaboration has led to the current initiative, which marks the first time in more than 20 years that monazite ore from the United States will be used as a feedstock to manufacture separated rare earth materials outside of China. The agreement calls for Energy Fuels to process natural monazite sands, which it obtains from the Chemours Company (NYSE: CC), into an RE carbonate beginning next year and ship a portion of that production to Neo’s rare earth separation facility in Estonia.”
