“Our next step is to scale separation to initially process more than 18,000 tons of rare earth feedstocks annually and produce more than 4,400 tons of separated oxides to supply our commercial metal operations,” said Tomas Villalon, CTO and co-founder of Phoenix Tailings. “Backed by two years of pilot testing and validation from our engineering partners, the system is designed to handle feedstocks from both mines and recyclers, with a modular design that allows us to expand as feedstock supply grows and keep pace with market demand.”
