澳大利亚Locksley公司利用新的清洁技术重新启动美国生产纳米材料,从而减少了对中国的依赖。 Australian firm Locksley restarts U.S. antimony production using new clean tech, reducing reliance on China.

澳大利亚矿业公司洛克斯利(Locksley)利用与赖斯大学开发的一个新的低温水文冶金工艺,在长达一年的出口禁令实施之后,正致力于重新启动美国反蚁素生产。 Locksley, an Australian mining company, is working to restart U.S. antimony production after a year-long export ban, using a new low-temperature hydrometallurgical process developed with Rice University. DeepSolv技术使用深电解溶剂,其目的在于比传统熔炼更高效、更清洁地提取。 The DeepSolv technology, which uses deep eutectic solvents, aims to extract antimony more efficiently and cleanly than traditional smelting. Locksley在加利福尼亚山口稀土矿附近开展Mojave项目, Locksley正在逐步进行试点示范,以50%以上的高品位高的斯蒂布尼特精矿为目标,并改进回收率。 Based at its Mojave project in California near the Mountain Pass rare earths mine, Locksley is advancing toward a pilot-scale demonstration, targeting high-grade stibnite concentrates of up to 50% with improved recovery rates. 该项目获得了美国决策者和GreenMet咨询公司的支持,作为减少对中国关键矿产供应链依赖的更广泛努力的一部分。 The project has gained support from U.S. policymakers and advisory firm GreenMet as part of broader efforts to reduce reliance on Chinese supply chains for critical minerals.
