Deep Leads Ionic Clay Rare Earths Project

research and development

ABx Group is advancing rare earths extraction from its ionic adsorption clay deposits in northern Tasmania through Federal Government-backed research initiatives. The project involves testwork on low-acid leach processes, beneficiation flowsheets, and pilot-scale recovery of magnet rare earths such as neodymium and praseodymium. Outcomes are expected to influence project economics, tailings chemistry, and permitting pathways for clay-hosted rare earths developments in Australia.
