Mont Royal Resources and Alta Resource Technologies Partner for Rare Earth Processing Research
Foreign media reported on August 31 that listed enterprise Mont Royal Resources signed a joint research agreement with US-based Alta Resource Technologies to evaluate the technical pathway for processing mixed rare earth carbonate produced from the Ashram project in Quebec into separated high-purity rare earth oxides. The two parties will assess the feasibility of building a commercial refining facility, and the agreement is Step-1 toward a potential joint venture to support the long-term production of rare earth oxides for permanent magnets and high-tech applications in North America.
