ReElement inks long-term rare earth offtake deal with POSCO International America to bolster supply

American Resources Corp CEO Mark Jensen joined Steve Darling to announce a major long-term offtake partnership with POSCO International America Corp, a global leader in steel, magnetic materials, and advanced industrial solutions. The collaboration will unite ReElement’s cutting-edge chromatographic separation and purification platform with POSCO’s deep expertise in materials science, large-scale deployment, and its extensive relationships across the global automotive and industrial supply chains. Together, the companies will work to establish a scalable, secure, and sustainable supply chain for high-purity rare earth elements, which are indispensable to defense, clean energy, electric vehicles, advanced semiconductors, and emerging AI-driven technologies. Jensen explained that the agreement reflects both companies’ long-term commitment to developing resilient and transparent rare earth supply chains that meet the surging demand for critical minerals. As part of the partnership, ReElement and POSCO will form a joint taskforce dedicated to securing diverse global feedstock streams—including mixed rare earth concentrate, magnet manufacturing waste, and end-of-life scrap magnets—to ensure a reliable input pipeline for purification and refining. The offtake agreement includes an initial targeted supply of purified, separated rare earth oxides—specifically dysprosium, yttrium, terbium, and neodymium-praseodymium. The deal anticipates scaling production to over 3,000 metric tons through 2030, representing a transformative step toward meeting the world’s growing demand for magnet-grade rare earth elements. Beyond its commercial significance, the partnership also reinforces the strategic alliance between the United States and the Republic of Korea, aligning with global efforts to reduce dependency on limited and politically sensitive supply sources. By securing stable access to rare earths, this initiative directly supports national defense readiness, clean energy independence, and the advancement of next-generation technologies that underpin modern economies. #proactiveinvestors #americanresourcescorporation #nasdaq #arec #SustainableMining, #MineralRefining, #RecyclingInnovation, #CriticalMinerals, #RareEarthRecycling, #EVRecycling, #BatteryRecycling, #princialminerals #adamjohnson #RareEarths #EWasteRecycling #ReElement #CriticalMinerals #SustainableTech #MagnetRecycling #TechInnovation #GreenSupplyChain #ElectrifiedMaterials
