Pursuant to its December 2025 suite of commercial agreements, REalloys has committed approximately $20.6 million to invest in targeted upgrades to the Saskatchewan Research Council's ("SRC") rare earth processing facility, intended to support expanded throughput of rare earth element materials.REalloys has also secured long-term supply rights to commercial-scale Neodymium-Praseodymium rare earth metals, and Dysprosium (Dy) and Terbium (Tb) oxides from SRC's facility pursuant to these agreements.It is still anticipated that initial commercial production from SRC's Rare Earth Processing Facility in Saskatoon remains on track for early 2027, with staged commissioning already underway.
Engineering is underway for the REalloys-funded Heavy Rare Earth Metallization Facility; major equipment procurement is now in progress exclusively with Western and allied-nation suppliers, with overall equipment costs tracking below the original budget.REalloys recently raised $50 million through an underwritten public offering in March 2026; REalloys is currently on track to secure the Western Hemisphere's first fully compliant commercial-scale supply of heavy rare earth metals ahead of 2027 U.S. defense procurement restrictions on Chinese-sourced materials.In December 2025, REalloys and SRC entered into certain commercial agreements that established the framework for a long-term supply relationship for heavy rare earths. Pursuant to these agreements, REalloys committed approximately $20.6 million to invest in targeted upgrades and expanded production capacity at SRC's Rare Earth Processing Facility in Saskatoon, Canada. These upgrades relate specifically to the equipment, engineering, permitting, and commissioning required to scale commercial NdPr metal output by an additional 25% while doubling Dy and Tb output. The ultimate target production capacity of SRC's Rare Earth Processing Facility per year is now approximately 525 tonnes of NdPr, 30 tonnes of Dy, and 15 tonnes of Tb.
