en.Wedoany.com Reported - ReElement Technologies Corp. (ReElement), a minority-owned enterprise under American Resources Corp., has successfully achieved the separation and purification of tungsten from ore feedstock provided by international mining partners. ReElement processed tungsten concentrate with a grade of approximately 28% into a purified material with 99.9% purity. This achievement is regarded as one of the few commercially viable demonstrations of tungsten refining in the United States and also showcases the capabilities of the company's multi-feedstock, multi-mineral refining platform.

ReElement CEO and Chairman Mark Jensen stated that the company has proven its platform can purify tungsten concentrate to over 99.9% purity. Although tungsten is not part of the Phase 1 Marion plant construction plan, this achievement provides a clear pathway to add tungsten refining capacity when supported by customer demand, prepayments, and commercial commitments for expansion. This progress marks a significant step forward in establishing tungsten refining capabilities for the United States and its allies. Tungsten is one of the most strategic materials for defense and commercial industries, widely used in armor-piercing ammunition, missile systems, aerospace components, hypersonic technology, military electronics, advanced manufacturing, and high-performance tools, yet domestic refining capacity in the U.S. is extremely limited.

ReElement Co-founder and Board Nominee Mark LaVerghetta pointed out that this is not just about tungsten, but about ensuring that the United States and its allies can access, refine, and control the critical materials underpinning national defense, technological leadership, and industrial security. ReElement's "refine-first" model offers a new approach, having already achieved commercialization in critical minerals and capable of scaling with market changes, replacing traditional single-source, fixed systems that have proven unsustainable, high-risk, capital-intensive, environmentally burdensome, and difficult to deploy. ReElement owns a patented chromatography-based separation and purification platform capable of processing a variety of rare earth and critical mineral feedstocks, offering greater flexibility, modularity, and scalability compared to traditional methods that rely on large, fixed facilities and significant chemical consumption.
