Resouro follows up record recoveries with new round of Brazilian rare earths testwork

Resouro Strategic Metals has commissioned Altilium to start the next phase of testwork on ore from its 1.7 billion tonne Tiros titanium and rare earths project.

  • Resouro has started the next phase of metallurgical testwork on ore from its 1.7 billion tonne Tiros Titanium and Rare Earths project
  • This phase follows Resouro’s metallurgical test work partner Altilium achieving the highest known rare earth extractions
  • The upcoming round will inform discussions with offtakers and the Preliminary Economic Assessment

The upcoming round is a scaled-up version of the sighter test work completed just a few weeks ago when the metallurgy group achieved the highest known rare earth extractions on Resouro Strategic Metals’ (ASX:RAU) ore.

The ultimate aim of the testwork program is to achieve maximum extraction of the high value minerals with the world’s lowest environmental footprint from pit to end product.

“We are focussed on finding the optimal leaching method that will provide the most environmentally friendly process with high rare earths and TiO2 recoveries at the lowest cost.”
