US rare earth refiner ReElement Technologies has expanded its capacity to provide high-purity separated rare earth elements for domestic defense and advanced manufacturing industries. The company is currently having its defense and commercial partners trial 99.99% rare earth oxides. ReElement's facility, located in Noblesville, Indiana, is expanding its production capacity to produce 200 mt per year of separated and purified critical minerals with a purity range of 99.5% to 99.999%. Production is expected to be transferred to a 400,000-square-foot facility in Marion, Indiana, in early 2026. The Marion facility is collaborating with partners and customers, aiming for an initial capacity of 4,400 mt per year, with expansion based on raw material availability and market demand. The main high-purity products produced include yttrium, gadolinium, samarium, and terbium, with pricing based on indexed prices to maintain competitiveness with Asian competitors.
