One of the hold-ups here is permitting. That "issue" may become more streamlined in the near future.
-Rare earth element’ permitting measure advances-
Wyoming would oversee federal licensing and permitting for radioactive byproducts of rare-earth-mineral mining, which proponents say would make the state more attractive to industry.
For sure! My guess is things will be speeding up soon. With the Russian Uranium setback, the U.S. will need to expedite local permitting and extraction. Our site in Upton could likely be a prime supplier.
This could be one reason for Brent taking over. He's an expert when it comes to in-situ recovery.
Good luck!
-The state gives money to help build a rare earth element processing facility near Upton-
Rare Element Resources received a $4.4 million grant from theWyoming Energy Authority (WEA) to be used for the advancement of the company’s rare earth element processing facility near Upton.
A nice article out by WOOD describing work being done at the WyIC
-Engineering Future Ready Industries in Wyoming-
Wood has partnered with the University of Wyoming (UW) School of Energy Resources (SER) and Atlas Carbon to design a coal refinery field demonstration project near Gillette, Wyoming. The site is being developed and operated collaboratively to create and showcase a sustainable coal refinery process as well as product technologies, at pre-commercial scale, using Wyoming Powder River Basin (PRB) coal.
UW SER’s Center for Carbon Capture and Conversion (CCCC) has developed a thermochemical process technology which integrates thermal coal solvent extraction and fast thermal-pyrolysis processing- a critical part of the carbon engineering program and the process around which this project is centred. The technology efficiently decomposes coal to beneficial liquids and solids that can be used in a variety of valuable, non-energy products such as building and construction materials, asphalt products, and agricultural soil amendments. To date, the state of Wyoming has invested over $30 million on such projects.
-NETL RESEARCHER TO DISCUSS WYOMING INNOVATION CENTER PROJECT-
October 06, 2022
NETL’s Christina Lopano, Ph.D., will participate in a webinar Tuesday, Oct. 11, from 2-3 p.m. ET, highlighting important NETL-led rare earth element (REE) research at the Wyoming Innovation Center (WyIC) in Gillette, Wyoming.
Lopano will join experts from government and academia for a panel to discuss the creation of the WyIC, current and upcoming projects and the impact the Center’s work will have on emerging market opportunities and innovative methods to use domestic coal resources in the growing clean energy economy.
“The facility opened its doors this summer, and we are excited to continue our collaboration there with the community of Gillette and the University of Wyoming,” Lopano said. “This webinar will help publicize NETL’s work demonstrating economically viable production of REEs from coal-related feedstocks. This research is intended to culminate in a pilot-scale facility at the Center and has the potential to launch a new industry in extracting critical REE materials from the ash of Wyoming’s Powder River Basin coals.”
Wyoming is the nation’s top coal producer, with significant potential to recover REEs from its coal resources. This prospective new industry could ultimately be an economic development opportunity for Wyoming while providing national security benefits. REEs are crucial for a variety of economic, energy and defense applications, but the current supply chain is dominated by other countries. A domestic source of REEs would insulate the U.S. from disruptions in global trade.
“We plan to scale up the extraction technologies we’ve previously developed in the laboratory and deploy those technologies in a small pilot facility,” Lopano said. “This will be a significant step toward commercialization of critical minerals from coal by-products in the United States.”
Well said shajandr!
These folks were manipulated by shadowspy and others.
A fool is easily fooled.
Once again..
Speaking of laughing..
I just ran across an article from NETL.
In partnership with NETL, researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) are building a new prototype sensor for rapid in-field detection and characterization of rare earth elements (REEs) in fossil fuel-based resources and waste materials.
https://netl.doe.gov/node/10733
Is this the same NETL that's setting up shop at the WyIC? What a joke! These guys build a device capable of locating REE's in coal, with no where to process their finds at scale?? What a joke! Hahahahahahaa!!
Oh wait..
I would imagine. Especially after being welcomed into the Jindal family.

Thanks! And since I know you like to geek out on this as much as me..
Here's what the State of Wyoming, in partnership, is looking to do with their coal refining process. CC The Honorable Jennifer Granholm
https://www.nationalcoalcouncil.org/studies/2021/Carbon-Forward-Advanced-Markets-2021.pdf
Rotary kiln and activated carbons are mentioned on page 52.
Page 59 mentions SER's continuous coal processing that targets a wide variety of process products via coal. Other pages mentions NETL and their advancement potentials.
There's also a patent in-part belonging to Richard Horner. Remember how excited he was to "partner" with CCTI?? There's a ton more to dissect if you're in need of an overload. Lol
Payments to CR&E for the CCTI project can be found here on page 64

Our kiln and associated Electrical engineering was designed and completed through a collaboration between UW, Heyl Patterson and CR&E. Best of my knowledge, the payments went to CR&E
Lochhead. HP and Feeco (among others) commonly use blue and yellow. Not sure why..
I guess I'm not sure what your suspicious thoughts are.
Sorry if I sound naïve.
I remain super optimistic going forward. I think we'll start on an uptrend later this week/early next. Big things probably won't happen here for a year or two IMO.
Can you explain? I don't get what you're asking.
I read your post. Are you assuming things will get better or worse under new management?
Thx!
It's very difficult to fill an all/nothing order in large quantity.
It took me almost 2 weeks to fill a 10K share order at .33

318 there..
another 12 here
Etc.
I doubt it would have triggered using your method.
Good Luck!
I don't get it. Our Kiln is a Heyl Patterson
A counter-current one, if I remember correctly..

If you find that interesting, this may solve the mystery of how Wood got involved. Remember all the chat about why Kiewit "left"?
https://theubposts.com/erdenes-mongol-to-produce-10000-barrels-of-liquid-fuel-a-day-from-coal/
Now we have Polaris, UW, Wood and Horner (among others) to visit Atlas in Sept? Hmmm
That 2017 project was set at 3.5 years. Then came Covid..
Timing sounds right. So does the lineup.
Good Luck!
We'll quite possibly have a part to play. I know you do a lot of research.
Have you ever seen another video of an excited Richard Horner describing collaborative technologies? Let's hope he still carries that enthusiasm about UW's partnership with CCTI when he comes to the Sept 2nd ceremony!
Interesting! Who knows.. Maybe CCTI's "partnership" with UW to co-create a coal refinery in NEW (North East Wyoming) is finally taking visible shape.
In 2017 the company PR'd the partnership, stating:
-Company partners with UW to pursue clean-coal technology-
If the testing proves sound and Clean Coal can market its treated coal, it would be “a potential breakthrough technology for benefiting Wyoming coal and creating new market opportunities that can grow demand,” said Richard Horner, director of special projects and emerging technology for UW’s School of Energy Resources, in a press release announcing the agreement.
The CCTI process has potential to enhance research already being done by the university, Horner said.
“There are proprietary features of the CCTI technology that have scope to be incorporated into our ‘coal refinery’ concept, which we have been working on now for over two years,” he said. “Different technology platforms can be linked and leveraged to make wide-ranging fuels, materials and chemical products while producing minimum waste or environmental hazard.”
Good question. Did you know Mr Hashampour is CEO of Atlas Carbon?
I didn't
Maybe there's still an interest in India, Indonesia, Africa, Mongolia and elsewhere..
Maybe India is looking for a coal technology solution when they take over the G20 Presidency this December. Who knows?
We shall see
Indeed! Especially since Mr Hashampour’s company has acquired technology that turns brown coal into liquid fuel. They have worked with the Ex-Im Bank for several years to help win projects in places like Mongolia. Now he's coming to Fort Union? Very interesting is RIGHT!
Mongolia??
U.S. Government import/export banking??
Coal conversion technologies??
Ok :)
I hate to be overly optimistic. Lol! But the fact that our equipment is lying next to Atlas while Atlas is prepping for a groundbreaking that incorporates coal refining processes using process technologies.. well
UW is one of the partners. They approached CCTI a while back, recognizing our technology could possibly be incorporated into their coal refinery process.. The ceremony is scheduled to take place Sept 2nd somewhere near the WyIC and Atlas Carbon. The site of our kiln perhaps??

Here's Dr Horner explaining the full collaboration with CCTI
It may be time for another countdown..
And my #'s were apparently a bit conservative..
Good luck!
Starting to think more news is just around the corner
Thanks for sharing! It's nice to see this mid-way through the 1/4
Our PPS will likely remain stuck in the 2.30's - 2.60's until we see Q3 numbers. Then it's my guess we'll push into the 3's
3's to 5's 2023 IMO
Yea.. Must be popular. Lol
You'll also notice this on the same page (without mention of CCTI)
UPGRADE WYOMING COAL FOR ENERGY USE
The CCCC seeks to improve the efficient and effective clean burning characteristics of Wyoming Powder River Basin (PRB) coal, and is collaborating with technology companies to bring their solutions to the state.
It is anticipated that building up a new carbon economy -- in partnership with the efforts of the CCCC, Atlas Carbon, the Wyoming Innovation Center and other organizations in Campbell County -- will bring added prosperity to the state while also addressing the challenge of carbon management.
In the next phase of this site demonstration, the pyrolysis portion of the technology will be installed to create larger volumes of coal char that can then be used to manufacture useful products such as our building materials and soil amendments,” Pfeiffer says. “If future funding is secured, we will be able to add the solvent extraction portion of the process in order to fully integrate the technology.

IRA Provisions Aim To Bolster Domestic Critical Mineral Production and Is Highly Aligned With the Company's ReElement Technologies' Accomplishments
-Front Line: U.S. Seeks to Manufacture Critical Rare Earth Materials-
The United States is facing a critical shortage of product made from rare earth materials that are essential in manufacturing important components for more than 200 products, including high-tech consumer products such as cellular telephones, computer hard drives, electric and hybrid vehicles, flat-screen monitors and televisions, and significant defense applications such as electronic displays, guidance systems, lasers, and radar and sonar systems..
..Efforts to Address the Shortage
Efforts are under way in the United States to address this problem. In June, Energy Capital Economic Development (ECED) announced the opening of the Wyoming Innovation Center (WyIC), a 5,500-square-foot coal commercialization facility in Gillette, Wyoming. WyIC’s first tenant is the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL).
Pretty exciting news for Ft Union and the PRB!
Looks like they’re getting ready to fire up a pilot plant just outside Atlas and near the WyIC..
Between the 2 maybe??
-UW SER, Wood, Atlas Carbon Collaborate on Potential Field Demonstration Project Near Gillette-
Situating the novel coal-processing technology adjacent to the existing activated carbon production facility operated by Atlas Carbon in Gillette will leverage existing Wood expertise and coal-handling preparation capabilities at the site.
“Wood will now begin the site preparations at the Fort Union Industrial Park in Gillette, owned by Atlas Carbon LLC, to make it demonstration ready,” Levy says. “The manufacturing plant is located near the Wyoming Innovation Center and has the ability and capacity to convert carbon into products, making it an ideal location for a field demonstration.”
