Rare earths' journey from mine to magnet. Here are the steps that get rare earth elements out of the ground and into our hi-tech products. While the United States mines and concentrates rare ...
Text summarization is one of the newest and most exciting fields in NLP, allowing for developers to quickly find meaning and extract key words and phrases from documents. RaRe Technologies' newest intern, Ólavur Mortensen, walks the user through text summarization features in Gensim.
Rare-earth element extraction efficiencies of 50% was achieved without sample pretreatment. Pretreating samples with mechanical activation (ball milling) for 1 h resulted in a 20% improvement in extraction efficiency. High-resolution transmittance electron microscopy showed that during mechanical activation the sample becomes …

The Saskatchewan Research Council (SRC) has achieved a milestone by designing and manufacturing Canada's first proprietary solvent extraction cell technology for the processing of rare earth elements (REEs). The milestone enables Canada to join the list of a handful of countries with this …
Efficient waste management practices can utilize waste as a resource for the recovery of valuable metals. Rare-earth metals have significant economic importance and are currently in high demand because of their strategic industrial applications. These metals are critical to the development of advanced devices. However, the supply of critical …
But as much as technology is hailed as the panacea of the future, most of these innovations have a dirty underside: production of these new technologies requires companies to dig up what are referred to as rare earth elements (REEs). REEs describe the 15 lanthanides on the periodic table (La-Lu), plus Scandium (Sc) and Yttrium (Y).
