IXR media coverage, page-992

Thanks Mugwon just saw this on IXR Media thread, I posted the same thing on IXR General Discussion, hopefully the FS for the commercial Plant will be out very, very soon

I like listening to the Thomas Kelly interview, very informative, it's a great interview

"Thomas Kelly, Director of Operations at Ionic Technologies, provides an insightful overview of the company's role in Belfast's emerging green energy ecosystem. Situated within the Belfast Harbour Estate, Ionic Technologies is at the forefront of rare earth recovery through magnet recycling, capitalising on the growing offshore wind industry in the region. Kelly highlights the company's progress in producing high-purity rare earth oxides, including neodymium-praseodymium (NdPr), dysprosium, and terbium, from recycled wind turbine magnets.

The interview delves into the substantial support Ionic Technologies has received from UK government bodies, including the Advanced Propulsion Centre and Innovate UK, underscoring the strategic importance of rare earth recycling for the country's critical mineral supply chain. Kelly emphasises the company's rapid technological advancement, its collaboration with industry partners like Ford, and its ambitious plans to scale up operations. With a target to commercialise their technology within two years, Ionic Technologies aims to play a crucial role in meeting the European Union's goal of 25% recycled content in rare earth magnets by 2030, significantly up from the current global recycling rate of around 1%."
