CoTec Holdings (TSE:CTH) announced that it holds a majority stake in HyProMag USA. HyProMag USA has completed a conceptual study for the expansion of its South Carolina and Nevada hubs. By 2029, the company's total NdFeB magnet and alloy production in the US is expected to increase from 1,552 mt per year to 4,656 mt, complementing its first plant in Texas and supporting a scalable domestic recycling and manufacturing platform. The expansion plan has now entered the pre-feasibility work stage, outlining three modular production scenarios across the three hubs in Texas, South Carolina, and Nevada. Based on projected prices, the conceptual after-tax net present value reaches up to $2.18 billion, with a real internal rate of return of 38.7%. This indicates strong economics supporting the accelerated build-out of US rare earth magnet capacity and reinforces HyProMag USA’s positioning in strengthening domestic supply chain resilience and preparing for a future public listing.

Aldoro Resources Reports Significant Mineralization at Kameelburg Project in Namibia

Aldoro Resources made new progress in drilling at the Kameelburg niobium-rare earth-strontium project in Namibia. Key intercept results included: 503.98 meters of mineralization from surface, with grades of 1.3% total rare earth oxides (TREO), 4.01% strontium, 0.17% niobium (Nb2O5), and 0.019% molybdenum, indicating pervasive mineralization across the eastern limb of the carbonatite body. Aldoro considered this intercept "one of the best intercepts" for the project. The deeper extent of the Kameelburg ore body remains open at depth.

Brazil Explores New Zones to Boost Rare Earth Reserves Amid Global Surge in Demand

As global interest in rare earth surges, Brazil is seeking new areas that could increase its rare earth reserves. The Geological Survey of Brazil (SGB) recently promoted the evaluation of new mineralization zones with rare earth potential in the country. The SGB, under Brazil's Ministry of Mines and Energy, studied the rare earth exploration potential in the states of São Paulo, Paraná, and Santa Catarina. Fieldwork was conducted in the following locations: Itupeva, Alumínio, Morungaba, Capão Bonito, Juquiá, Jacupiranga, Cajati, Itapirapuã Paulista, and Cananéia in the state of São Paulo; Cerro Azul, Castro, Carambeí, and Tijucas do Sul in the state of Paraná; and Joinville and Garuva in the state of Santa Catarina.
