Solcoa is rebuilding Western metallization from the ground up, starting with rare earths. For thirty years, China has owned the rare earth value chain—not because of geology, but because of chemistry. The processes that turn ore and scrap into separated rare earth metals were industrialized in China, and the West, for the most part, has tried to win by copying them. We don't think that works. The path back runs through invention, not imitation—the same path Charles Hall took in 1886 when he invented the electrolytic process that broke the European aluminum monopoly and built Alcoa.
We produce NdPr and DyTb metal alloys at >99.5% TREM purity using a proprietary pyrometallurgical process. We feed end-of-life NdFeB magnets, manufacturing swarf, and oxide feedstocks directly into metal, with an already China-competitive cost structure. We operate a 31,000 sq ft pilot facility in Alameda, California.
