Longonjo Neodymium-Praseodymium Project of Angola Producer of :Neodymium and praseodymium Project Type :Open-pit Location :Angola Longonjo neodymium-praseodymium project is an open-pit mine producing neodymium and praseodymium located in the African nation of Angola. Pensana Metals fully owns the project and is developing it at a capital cost of £168.4m ($131m). Pre-feasibility study (PFS) of the [...]
The Longonjo NdFeB Project The development of mineral reserves in Longonjo, Huambo Province, may begin in early 2022. The province has 23 billion tons of raw ore and is called "rare land." The project is a partnership between the Angolan company Ferrangol-EP and Pensana, Australia. The project will create 450 direct jobs, 50% of which [...]
Frequently Asked Neodymium Magnets Questions What is Rare Earth? Rare earth is an ore primarily mined in China. Rare earth is the source of 17 elements listed on the periodic table as Lanthanides. Two of those elements Neodymium and Samarium are the magnets namesakes that are derived from the rare earth ore. Both Neodymium (Nd) [...]
Neodymium Past, Present & Near Future Neodymium is a glistening silvery-yellow metal. It's quite responsive and quickly tarnishes in the atmosphere and the coat of corrosion formed doesn't protect the metal from further oxidation, so it must be kept away from contact with air. It reacts slowly with cold water and quickly with hot. Neodymium [...]
Three Major Events of Rare Earths Recently, the international topic on rare earths has increased significantly. Rare earth is a strategic material that is widely used in military, industrial, agricultural and other industries. It is an important support for the manufacture of new materials and an important resource related to national defense and security. It [...]
The Future of Cerium And Its Effects On the Permanent Magnet Industry Cerium, for one, is not a useable component of current permanent magnet creation, but nonetheless is critical to the health of the industry. However, the way established markets run for rare earth metals, sister minerals mined must be a significant factor when calculating [...]
3D-printed Permanent Magnets Outperform Conventional Versions OAK RIDGE, Tenn., Nov. 1, 2016—Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have demonstrated that permanent magnets produced by additive manufacturing can outperform bonded magnets made using traditional techniques while conserving critical materials. This isotropic, neodymium-iron-boron bonded permanent magnet was 3D-printed at DOE’s Manufacturing Demonstration Facility [...]
The Role of Samarium and Other Elements in Sintered NdFeB Sintered neodymium iron boron, as its name suggests, is an alloy material consisting of Nd2Fe14B, a compound consisting of three elements: neodymium Nd, iron Fe, and boron B. But sintered neodymium iron boron is not a single phase. .1Fe4B4 phase) and Nd-rich phase (also known [...]
