Sarytogan Graphite Ltd (ASX:SGA) managing director Sean Gregory sits down with Proactive’s Jonathan Jackson to share insights on the successful testing of Sarytogan Ultra-High Purity Fines (UHPF) and its impact on the production of new product types.

Sarytogan has announced the effective testing of UHPF as a cathode conductivity enhancer in various battery applications. This breakthrough leads to the development of three distinct product categories - Micro-crystalline Carbon for industrial uses, Uncoated Spherical Purified Graphite (USPG) for Li-ion battery anodes and UHPF for advanced applications, including in the nuclear sector.

The testing demonstrated UHPF's efficiency in AA alkaline battery cathodes and can linings, and in lithium monofluoride (Li/CFx) battery cathodes, catering to sectors like medical, aviation, and military.

Looking ahead, Sarytogan plans to conduct long-term testing on USPG cells, assess Coated Spherical Purified Graphite (CSPG) in Li-ion anodes, and aims to complete the pre-feasibility study (PFS) by the third quarter of 2024. Gregory emphasises the strategic approach of Sarytogan in maximising the value of the vast Sarytogan Graphite Deposit by diversifying its product applications, particularly in the burgeoning lithium-ion battery market.

Aclara Resources Chief Executive Officer Ramon Barua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share exciting news about the company's strategic expansion into the United States market. Aclara has incorporated a U.S.-based subsidiary, Aclara Technologies, with the aim of developing its rare earths separation capabilities in the country. This strategic move comes following Aclara's joint venture with CAP to develop metal and alloys capabilities, positioning the company to become the first vertically integrated heavy rare earths company outside of Asia.

Barua explained that this move was made possible by Aclara's unique feed of clean heavy rare earths, particularly Dysprosium and Terbium, which are expected to be sourced from two stable and investment-friendly countries in the Americas. The decision to integrate vertically addresses the need for creating a geopolitically independent supply chain for permanent magnets, which are crucial for the performance of electric vehicles, wind turbines, robotics, and other applications associated with the decarbonization of the planet.

Aclara Technologies will source high-purity mixed rare earths carbonates from Aclara's extraction modules in Chile and Brazil. These carbonates will then be converted into individual rare earths oxides in the separation facility. To support this process, Aclara Technologies has awarded a contract to the Saskatchewan Research Council to develop a production flowsheet specifically designed for its premium carbonate.

This strategic expansion into the United States market underscores Aclara's commitment to establishing a robust and sustainable supply chain for rare earth metals and alloys, further solidifying its position as a key player in the global rare earths industry.

S&U PLC chairman Anthony Coombs discusses the company's full-year performance and outlook in an interview with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion.

Despite facing significant headwinds, especially in the latter half of the period, Coombs noted that S&U demonstrated robust trading, underpinned by the strong demand for its motor finance and property bridging products.

Aspen, its property bridging division, achieved a significant milestone, hitting the half-billion lending mark.

However, profit growth at motor finance division Advantage was held back by higher interest rates and increased regulatory activity from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) concerning forbearance, affordability, and vulnerable customers. Coombs highlighted the company's adaptability and ongoing cooperation with the FCA to maintain best-in-class procedures. Despite the economic challenges and regulatory pressures, customer numbers at Advantage reached record levels.

Coombs also addressed the impact of the current economic situation, including recession fears and cost of living pressures, on the company's lending practices. He expressed neutrality towards the potential change in government, emphasizing the company's resilience and long-term customer service focus.

On the property market, Coombs noted the resilience of house prices and a long-term supply shortage, which he believes presents a substantial opportunity for Aspen. He highlighted the division's focus on lending to individuals refurbishing or building properties, a sector underserved by traditional banks.

S&U declared a final dividend of 50 pence per share and Coombs expressed confidence in the company's ability to resume sustainable profit growth, maintaining a balance between capital appreciation and dividend yield for shareholders.

TNR Gold Corp executive chairman Kirill Klip tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion the company will start generating its first royalty stream once the Mariana lithium project in Argentina commences production later this year, marking a major milestone for TNR Gold Corp. This development is pivotal as the company aims to establish itself within the green energy metals royalty and gold sector, Klip added.

The Mariana lithium project has been operational since January 2023. Owner Ganfeng Lithium has focused on increasing lithium concentration and constructing facilities capable of producing lithium chloride, targeting an annual output of 20,000 tonnes. Moreover, the operations are set to be entirely powered by renewable energy, with a 120-megawatt solar power plant being developed, expected to expand to 150 megawatts.

Klip also highlighted the positive shift in Argentina's business environment under the new presidency, emphasizing the country's growing attractiveness for mining investments. TNR Gold benefits from Argentina's enhanced business-friendly initiatives, alongside having a royalty on another significant project in the country, Klip said.

Addressing the lithium market, Klip noted the fluctuating prices but stressed the anticipated recovery and structural deficit due to the underestimation of supply by significant analysts. He underscored the strategic positioning of the Mariana lithium project, particularly for the production of lithium chloride, which is essential for the next generation of lithium solid-state batteries. These batteries are expected to enhance the efficiency and range of electric vehicles significantly.

American Rare Earths Limited CEO Donald Swartz joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share significant news regarding assay results from a recent mapping and sampling program conducted in the Cowboy State Mine area. These results provide valuable insights that will enable the company to target higher-grade areas contiguous to the mining area identified in the recently published scoping study. Swartz emphasized that these findings complement the updated JORC resource estimate of 2.34 billion tonnes and demonstrate consistently enriched mineralization at Halleck Creek.

Swartz explained that the mapping and sampling campaign focused on achieving a higher resolution of data. A total of 95 samples were sent for analysis at ALS Global, including 5 quality assurance/quality control samples of standards, blanks, and duplicates. Surface samples revealed concentrations of up to 6,221 ppm total rare earth oxides (TREO), indicating the potential for a larger, higher-grade rare earth element (REE) resource area within the Cowboy State mine area. Notably, the mine planning in the recent scoping study averaged 3,805 ppm TREO.

Additionally, the samples showed significant concentrations of magnetic rare earths, averaging 27% of TREO. This data will be instrumental in supporting future drilling efforts aimed at delineating higher-grade resources.

Swartz expressed confidence in the company's prospects, highlighting the importance of these assay results in guiding future exploration and development activities. The findings underscore American Rare Earths' commitment to advancing its projects and unlocking the full potential of its rare earth element deposits in the Cowboy State Mine area. Watch the full interview for more insights into American Rare Earths' recent developments and its strategic vision for the future.
