An update from Locksley Resources Limited ( (AU:LKY) ) is now available.

Locksley Resources has reported progress in its research collaboration with Columbia University to develop rare earth recovery, separation and metallisation pathways tailored to the Mojave Project’s bastnaesite-style mineralisation in California. The program covers ore characterisation, processing development and deployment assessment, and is advancing techniques such as selective leaching, rapid on-site detection technologies and molten salt electrolysis as a potential alternative to conventional thermal reduction.

Conceptual processing flowsheets for El Campo have been outlined, including options for leaching, pre-concentration, co-recovery of other metals and electrified metallisation, with optimisation now underway using Locksley’s own carbonatite samples. By running this processing R&D in parallel with maiden exploration, Locksley aims to simplify future downstream flowsheets, enhance recovery efficiency and inform early-stage technical and economic studies, potentially strengthening the project’s development pathway and competitiveness in the rare earths sector.
