Notes
Metallizes purchased RE oxide to NdPr metal and DyFe alloy by mixed-halide molten-salt electrolysis. US$500M OSC conditional loan commitment (Jun 2026) for a 'Freedom Facility' (site unselected, ops 2028). Products stated: [neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium] Exeter, New Hampshire plant opened October 2025 and converts rare earth oxide to metal (metallization), starting with NdPr and DyFe. The company states 200 t/yr initial capacity with ability to scale above 1,000 t/yr; the Burlington, MA plant also produces metals but no capacity for it is published, so the former 40 t/yr pilot figure is unsupported.
