Corporate Update

Since announcing separation results on June 21, 2016, the main objective of Innord Inc. ("Innord") was to increase rare earth elements ("REE") concentration of separation medium in order to augment separation capacity of a single module. Separation factor, energy consumption and ligands have been considered as the major factors to be addressed during the development.

Many ligands and their combination have been tested in a variety of electrophoresis conditions. Moreover, a particular technique has been acquired to accelerate the screening tests which was applied on baseline REE synthetic solutions containing light REEs (La to Nd), which are the most challenging to separate by electrophoresis as compared to heavy REE.

"Attempting to modify and adapt the electrophoresis technology into large scale REE separation is a slow process and is quite challenging. We have already demonstrated that electrophoresis has the potential to become a promising method for REE separation and now, with all the work completed in the past 12 months, we are moving closer to demonstrating its features and capabilities in large-scale separation application. We are very excited seeing the progress in testing and we will be updating the market as soon as the final results are available." Commented Kiril Mugerman, President and CEO of GéoMegA.
