ReElement Technologies Launches Urban Mining-to-Magnet Tolling Service for 99.5%+ Separated Rare Earth Oxides

Innovative offering enables cost-effective recycling of permanent magnets into high-purity Nd, Pr, Dy, and Tb oxides at $25-$35/kgReElement achieves over 90% recovery rates and partners with domestic magnet producers to deliver a fully circular, U.S.-based supply chain American Resources Corporation (NASDAQ:AREC) ("American Resources") along with its holding in ReElement Technologies Corporation ("ReElement"), a leading U.S. innovator in rare earth element (REE) and critical mineral refining, is pleased to announce the launch of its urban mining-to-magnet rare earth supply chain. Through this offering, ReElement will provide toll processing services to separate and purify recycled rare earth magnets into high-purity Nd, NdPr, Dy, and Tb oxides - achieving purities of 99.5% or greater - for an average cost of $25 to $35 per kilogram. These refined materials will then be converted back into magnets by ReElement's domestic partners, establishing a cost-effective and fully integrated U.S.-based magnet supply chain.ReElement is also recycling a range of strategic and esoteric critical minerals - many of which are subject to China's export controls or near-monopoly - including Terbium (Tb), Gallium (Ga), Germanium (Ge), Gadolinium (Gd), Samarium (Sm), Cobalt (Co), Yttrium (Y), and others essential to both commercial and defense-related high-tech applications. Under these partnerships, ReElement accepts material for recycling and returns the separated and purified oxides - or other desired chemical compound forms - with purities ranging from 99.9% to 99.999%. These refined products are typically provided to the recycling partner at or below prevailing Chinese market prices.Mark Jensen, CEO and Chairman of ReElement, commented, "Over the past decade, we've built an innovative platform - along with the processes and partnerships - to establish an economically viable rare earth and critical mineral supply chain here in the United States. Our Indiana facilities are producing high-purity, separated, and refined Nd, NdPr, and Dy, which we've delivered to domestic partners at costs competitive with Chinese pricing. We're proud to launch this collaborative tolling service for customers committed to building stable, long-term U.S.-based supply chains. If your operations require separated and purified rare earth oxides, reach out to our team - we're ready to help reduce your dependence on inefficient and unstable global supply channels. We firmly believe there's no other group in the U.S. capable of matching our combination of technical performance and pricing in delivering high-purity, refined rare earth and critical mineral products."ReElement is feedstock-agnostic and has successfully processed magnets sourced from wind turbines, automotive rotors, power tool rotors, hard disk drives, electric motors, and magnetic separators. The company has also recycled magnetic swarf from magnet manufacturing operations, returning it to the production cycle.In the coming months, ReElement expects to announce additional tolling partnerships involving SEG, SEG+, MREC, MREO, and other ore-based feedstocks - in addition to existing antimony refining services.ReElement's refining platform - originally developed by Purdue for pharmaceutical purification - has been reengineered to separate rare earths and critical minerals with exceptional efficiency, scalability, and purity. Their patented, programmable platform handles multiple feedstocks and minerals, enabling rapid modular deployment across locations and resource types. Unlike legacy solvent extraction methods, it uses far fewer chemicals, requires less space, and generates minimal waste - making it faster to permit and simpler to co-locate near feedstock or end-use customers. This breakthrough eliminates a major chokepoint in global critical mineral supply chains, which has been dominated by single-source processing, no longer tenable as the U.S. must forge critical mineral supply chain independence, both through processing in the US and in partnership with allies abroad.About ReElement Technologies CorporationReElement Technologies Corporation, a portfolio company of American Resources Corporation (NASDAQ:AREC), is a leading provider of high-performance refining capacity for rare earth and critical battery elements. Its multi-mineral, multi-feedstock platform technology focuses on the refining of recycled material from rare earth permanent magnets and lithium-ion batteries, concentrated ores and brines, as well as coal-based waste streams and byproducts to create a cost effective and environmentally-safe, circular supply chain. ReElement has developed its innovative and scalable "Powered by ReElement" process which collaboratively utilizes its exclusively licensed intellectual property within its partners' material processing flow sheets to more efficiently support the global supply chain's growing demand for magnet and battery-grade products.
