Southern Arc Announces Additional High-Grade Intersections From Pelangan Prospect

Now where have I heard this story before? Incidentally it's not electrophoresis, which is used to separate proteins, it is selective electropolarimetry, which uses the fact that REE's form complexes with fluoroborate ions which have differing electrode potentials and ionic mobilities and after separation are calcined to give pure rare earth oxides. This method is also used by nuclear reprocessing plants to purify actinides which are very similar to REE's but are related to uranium and plutonium.

I have been told by industry insiders that the Geomega process is cheap, but it takes far too long to be commercial.
