Jack Lifton interviews Search Minerals’ Dr. David Dreisinger who says “the time for rare earths is now”

In a recent InvestorIntel interview, Jack Lifton spoke with Dr. David Dreisinger, Director and Vice President Metallurgy at Search Minerals Inc. (TSXV: SMY) about Search’s results around magnetic separation testing for producing rare earth concentrates from in the Port Hope Simpson Critical Materials District in SE Labrador.

In this InvestorIntel interview, which may also be viewed on YouTube (click here to subscribe to the InvestorIntel Channel), Dr. Dreisinger went on to say that Search Minerals’ Silver Fox rare earths deposit hosts a very high occurrence of zirconium and hafnium. With a plan to extract these critical materials as co-products with the rare earths, Dr. Dreisinger describes this as a “big breakthrough” for reducing overall cost in the extraction processes. He also discusses how the world is moving towards a non-Chinese supply chain of many critical materials and that  “the time is now for rare earths”.

The Perfect Market Storm: Critical Materials, Cleantech and COVID-19

There seems to be a misguided notion (with some) that isolation means we have more time to waste. Far from reality, I am certain that many of you, like me are looking at your inbox wondering where or how to wade into the depth of quality deals and opportunities upon us…

Would like to kick your morning coffee off with a special nod to our longstanding friends from Avalon Advanced Materials Inc. (TSX: AVL | OTCQB: AVLNF) whose $AVL soared 50% yesterday. We have been supporters of #Avalon since Don Bubar first did an interview with me in 2009 (with Jack Lifton) and introduced me to rare earths. And indeed, there is news flow in the rare earths a-n-d throughout the critical materials sector that is literally ricocheting from source-to-source online…

How to follow?

Jack Lifton, Clint Adam Smyth and I just launched the TechnologyMetals.com site to manage the influx of critical materials’ news (and experts) we are communicating with regularly. Jack’s interview with Dr. David Dreisinger on Search Minerals Inc. (TSXV: SMY) last week was purely outstanding (in my opinion) as he describes David as “the leading authority on solvent extraction process”. This is a hot topic that we touch on in our weekly update that we just started…click here to access a preview

And associated technologies relating to cleantech? We saw Exro Technologies Inc. (CSE: XRO | OTCQB: EXROF) stock move up 30% yesterday! Interviewing CEO Sue Ozdemir on how Exro makes “electric motors faster, stronger and greener” for InvestorIntel on Wednesday: we will get this up live as fast as we can!

Uranium continues to maintain a much-deserved interest, let me point you in the right direction for a quick update – Matt Bohlsen’s piece from last week titled, The DoE’s plan to rebuild the uranium sector and ‘pull America’s nuclear industrial base back from the brink of collapse’… reinforces the sustainability themes we are touting on the Technology Metals Show. Arranging interviews as we speak with Mark Chalmers of Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE: UUUU | TSX: EFR) and Jeff Klenda of Ur-Energy Inc. (NYSE: URG | TSX: URE) as they “stand to be the major beneficiaries, especially given they started the whole S232 petition back in January 2018” you should see those live on InvestorIntel next week.
