Cyclic combines magnet recovery from end-of-life products with REEPure hydrometallurgical refining. The stages produce recovered magnet feedstock and mixed rare-earth oxides for subsequent separation, with distinct facilities and input capacities.
Technical detail
Core features
MagCycle mechanically separates magnet-bearing products and other recovered metals
REEPure accepts recovered magnets and suitable manufacturing scrap
These describe the reviewed application scope, not confirmed deployments, released requirements or procurement eligibility.
Evidence of maturity
Cyclic reported commercial operation of Mesa, Arizona in September 2026, with first shipments expected later that month. Mesa's stated 25,000-tonne annual capacity concerns input products; Kingston's stated 500-tonne design concerns magnet material and customer qualification.
Commercial availability
Feedstock suppliers and rare-earth buyers can engage separately on magnet recovery, refining and qualification. Canadian process-development scope should be distinguished from the Arizona operating facility.

REEPure is a separate hydrometallurgical stage using recovered magnet material or manufacturing waste to produce recycled mixed rare-earth oxides for further separation. The two feed routes are Mag-Xtract from end-of-life products and suitable swarf, scrap or rejected components from magnet manufacturing. The Kingston site is described as a process-development and customer-qualification centre designed for up to 500 tonnes per year of magnet material; this is distinct from Mesa input capacity.

Cyclic reported commercial operation of its Mesa, Arizona MagCycle facility on September 9, 2026, with first customer shipments expected later that month. Mesa mechanically separates magnets from end-of-life products, producing Mag-Xtract and recovered copper, aluminium and steel. The stated capacity of up to 25,000 tonnes per year concerns magnet-bearing input products; it is not rare-earth oxide output or Canadian capacity.
