Medallion is focused on commercialization of proprietary technologies that enable the sustainable extraction and separation of rare earth elements ("REE") with minimum environmental footprints.

Medallion has recently signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding for the single-use application of these technologies in southeastern Australia.
