Source-bounded strategic technology capability
RapidSX rare-earth separation
What it enables
RapidSX is a column-based solvent-extraction platform intended to separate light and heavy rare-earth elements with a smaller footprint and faster mass transfer than conventional mixer-settler plants. Kingston demonstration evidence does not yet establish full commercial performance.
Evidence strength: ModerateLast reviewed Aug 12, 2026
Operating context
Maturity
Open Government Canada's public evidence confirms a company-specific project, award, program or operating context, while configuration-specific acceptance and scale remain bounded by the reviewer warning.
Availability
Ucore Rare Metals currently presents RapidSX rare-earth separation through its official public capability surface.
Decision-useful features
- Modular column solvent-extraction contactors
- Automated, feedstock-adaptable rare-earth separation flowsheets
Technical detail and applications
Documented applications. Rare-earth oxide refining for magnets and defence supply chains · Domestic samarium, gadolinium, neodymium, and heavy-REE processing

Questions for a first conversation
Which current configurations and independently accepted outcomes best define Ucore Rare Metals's RapidSX rare-earth separation readiness?
Halifax administration, Kingston demonstration, and Louisiana commercialization are distinct; separate confirmed funding from conditional packages and demonstration results from commercial throughput. The first conversation should therefore separate current offer, development evidence and accepted operational use.
