Finally heard from Management, this was his reply to my inquiry about ACDC.

"ACDC is progressing well.  ASX IPO schedules have blown out due to the volume of work and lack of staff"

Australian authorities are more nazi like with covid controls and have the entire country backed up like crazy. Long story short, we should be hearing good news very shortly.

[Natureboyjimbo]

Moderate volume, no news bump. Any word on ACDC?

Same. Enough to be interesting.

Will the new board members provide contacts that will result in a pilot plant start up??

I hope something to that effect.

(I took info from Medallion site which had this info up, but was not there when I looked at it again. The story does show on Yahoo. More share dilution at a pretty low exercise price, but more operating funds.

Will the new board members provide contacts that will result in a pilot plant start up??

nowwhat2; Vancouver, BC – Medallion Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: MDL; OTCQB: MLLOF; Frankfurt: MRDN) – “Medallion” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce the signing of a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) with Australian private company ACDC Metals Pty Ltd (“ACDC”) to form a partnership to utilize Medallion’s proprietary process to extract rare earth elements from monazite (the “Medallion Monazite Process”) in southeastern Australia.

The Medallion Monazite Process is a proprietary method that enables sustainable extraction of rare earth elements (“REE”) from mineral sand monazite. Monazite is a rare earth phosphate mineral globally available as a by-product from heavy mineral sand mining operations. Medallion recently published the positive findings of a Techno-Economic Assessment (“TEA”) which provides the engineering and economic foundation for commercializing the Medallion Monazite Process. This includes seeking both operational and licencing opportunities with qualified partners in mineral sand monazite rich jurisdictions.

ACDC is securing the right to acquire three historical non JORC/NI43-101 compliant mineral sand resource properties and other exploration assets in Victoria (Australia), to potentially underpin a supply of monazite suitable for the Medallion Monazite Process. ACDC is planning to complete an Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) upon the Australian Stock Exchange (“ASX”) within 12 months.

ACDC Managing Director Mr. Andrew Shearer commented, “ACDC recognizes the potential value add available to shareholders and stakeholders by the extraction of rare earth elements from mineral sand monazite. In partnering with Medallion Resources, we believe we have accessed the right technology at the right time, allowing us to be fast to market as REE prices rise and the market expands. We are excited to play a role to improve supply security and reduce environmental impact of rare earth element production.”

... snip "In compensation, Medallion shall receive a significant allocation of pre-IPO shares of ACDC, transferable rights to contribute funding to ACDC at seed and IPO stages, milestone payments and a royalty on successful operation of the refinery. Medallion will issue additional press releases related to the final legal and commercial structure within the Binding Contract as it becomes available. The Binding Contract is subject to regulatory approval. Investors are cautioned that the LOI is non-binding, and there is no guarantee that the parties will enter into the Binding Contract, or that the transactions contemplated in this press release will be completed."

Would be a clearer path for revenue and growth.
From their 2020 year end.

Cash consists of $1,528,686 (March 31, 2020 - $138,104) available in the bank accounts of the
Company at December 31, 2020.

If they can't find a JV partner for the Facility there aren't many other options.

[MasterSalix]

Agreed. But I was being a bit flippant - I think we all know and that is why the stock price is down since that announcement. Dilution is coming, that much is pretty obvious.

[Middleborder]

MasterSalix; That would be a good question for Mark Saxon!

Jon Bovi: News Technical, Financial Viability for Monazite Process;


Medallion says Techno Economic Assessment showed Technical, Financial Viability for Monazite Process; Up 10.4% in Frankfurt Trading
BY MT Newswires

) on Wednesday reported the results of an independent Techno-Economic Assessment for the company's process that enables sustainable extraction of rare earth elements from mineral sand monazite.

The company, which rose 3.9% in Canada yesterday, climbed 10.4% in Frankfurt trading as at 2:47 pm CEST on Wednesday.

The assessment has demonstrated the technical and financial viability of the Medallion Monazite Process at this scale, the company said. Engineering was completed at an assumed 7,000 tons per annum scale.

The report showed that such a facility would deliver about 870 tons per annum of neodymium and praseodymium oxide in cerium-depleted mixed carbonate form. Other products from the Medallion Monazite Process include cerium oxide and trisodium phosphate.

Further, the company reported a capital cost estimate of US$34 million.

The closer they get to getting their processing facility running the better. It moves hard on volume.

My bullish stance on a weak US dollar would make me think that more expensive imports of REE would make processing locally more attractive.

I was also coupling the thought of infrastructure plan money finding it's way to developing these types of long term strategic resources.

Bearish may be that with weak dollar liquidity moves from this sector to easier plays over the next few months

[nowwhat2]

Thanks for the reminder - Their chart looks SO primed !

Any idea what effect the Dollars' value could have on the project ?

If the US gets serious about local or friendly sourced REE this process should be helpful for years to come.

BonJovi, Chico, Douginil, Thanks! From your article:

“Research and development is generally a slow and progressive process. It is not often we get to witness firsthand the fast pace of an emerging disruptive technology,” said Mark Saxon, CEO and President. “It is less than 2 months since we started working with the LAD process at Purdue and already high-purity Nd and Pr carbonates have been separated from a monazite-sourced leach solution. By keeping the REE in solution from end to end, our cost, environmental footprint and recovery efficiency can all be optimized.”

The LAD Chromatography method was developed by Linda Wang, PhD, the Purdue Maxine Spencer Nichols Professor of Chemical Engineering at Purdue University. Her team's stated goal was to create "an environmentally sound technique for REE separation."

-2.13%
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Medallion Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: MDL; OTCQB: MLLOF; Frankfurt: MRDN) – (“Medallion” or the “Company”), reports that since January 1, 2021 the Company has received funds for the exercise of 4,249,014 warrants and options for gross proceeds of approximately $792,000. The warrants and options were priced between $0.09 and $0.40 with an average exercise price of $0.19 per share. Medallion is in a strong position with over $2,000,000 of working capital, with research and engineering programs underway on both the extraction and separation of rare-earth elements (REE).

“We are very pleased and thankful to receive the continuing support of shareholders with the exercise of almost $800,000 in warrants and options,” said Mark Saxon, CEO and President. “With a strong cash position, we can now make commitments to longer term research and corporate development.”

Rare-Earth Element Separation Technology Acquisition - Update

In addition to Medallion’s long-term investment in a proprietary process for the sustainable extraction of REEs from mineral sand monazite, the Company recently acquired an exclusive license to a portfolio of technology, patents, and knowhow for ligand-assisted displacement (LAD) chromatography from Purdue University. The license enables Medallion to deploy the LAD technology in the separation and purification of rare-earth elements for all minerals, mineral processing by-products and mining waste feedstock, excluding coal-sourced materials. Medallion has begun discussions with third parties to sub-license the LAD technology and provide much sought-after and low-environmental impact REE separation.

The LAD system, developed by Linda Wang, PhD, the Purdue Maxine Spencer Nichols Professor of Chemical Engineering, was selected for investment by Medallion following extensive review of the REE separation industry. The green engineering and design principles applied by Dr Wang were recognized through the publication of her research in the Journal Green Chemistry in 2020. LAD chromatography is an aqueous (water based) process that does not depend upon petrochemical industry solvents to function. The technology is built upon a platform that is widely used in the pharmaceuticals industry and provides an environmentally sound method for REE separation with low technology risk and holds tremendous promise.

[Jon Bovi]

Covid really is messing with a lot of industries. Not outrageous projections.

6 Months for build makes me think they will find a warehouse type building and that's just to put the production line together.

[ThSeeker]

Response from Medallion

These are my questions:
From you interview yesterday it sounds like you will enter execution phase in 2022.
1) Do you have a target when you will start to build the process on site?
2) How long will it take to build a site.
3) Do you expect to start producing /selling REE in 2022 or is it 2023?


RESPONSE:
We are aiming for all the critical decisions to be made before or during 2022. This is scale of the operation;
location;
funding;
monazite sourcing;
off take…..etc. The key one there is the location and the associated permitting.

We are looking at a range of permitting alternatives. It is hard to give fixed timelines until we deeply engage with one site and understand the requirements.

Building will be around 6 months, subject to the lead time for any equipment. COVID has blown equipment timelines out of the water.


Selling is more likely to be into 2023.

With best regards

Mark Saxon

Seeker; Thanks for posting!

[ThSeeker]

Correction to my last post LED should be. ligand-assisted displacement (LAD). The Medallion system is 2 steps

1) Medallion process extracts the REEs from the Monazite sand.
2) LAD process separates those REE into individual elements for sale.

ALSO
I sent email to Medallion asking for more detail on timeline to production. I will post and response if I get it

[ThSeeker]

I would expect that as they complete each phase towards production there will be some reward to price. Hopefully faster than you think.
In the video presentation they asked when will the Mediallion and LED process but put together and put out for market. Answer hopefully later this year. So I would expect production next year.
Do you have any info that would show it to be further out than that?

from their presentation:

Medallion has built an industrially relevant, near term business model that enables the Company to execute on key partnerships within the US and global rare earth element supply chain

Investment Case

•Expertise and proprietary technology in monazite processing. Monazite is already a key source of magnet metals NdPrglobally

•Fast to market strategy by accessing by-product from mineral sand mining. Opportunities both with US and elsewhere.

•Minimal technical risk –modern, efficient continuous metallurgical process utilizing all material and a “no tailings” plant

•Potential to produce 2,000 tpaREO in US (global market: 150,000 tpa) very soon

•Very low capex –~10-15% of hard-rock mining / processing

•Growth can be implement incrementally –modular design

•Near-term NdPrproduction from substantially de-risked business mode

[vuletini]

Looking good but it's going to take years to get to production with many

dilutions along the way. Dead money for a long while.

[ThSeeker]

Listened to the presentation this afternoon. Looking good. Going to require a lot of waiting for them to get to production but they are getting it done step by step. Sounds like their process will be best available and should be quite profitable once they get it going. Like how efficient and scalable and mobile it is. Lots of advantages that should ensure success.

Needed to be registered to see it.

[Jon Bovi]

Looks like a promising year to come.
