The Bell2Bell Podcast delivers informative updates and exclusive interviews with executives from fast-moving industries. Bell2Bell’s latest podcast features Pat Ryan, Chairman and CEO of Ucore Rare Metals Inc. (TSX.V:UCU) (OTCQX:UURAF)a critical metals segregation technology company implementing an ESG-centric plan to establish a comprehensive North American critical metals supply chain.
At the beginning of the interview, Ryan spoke about the increasing demand for critical metals and gave an insight into how Ucore is working to limit the West’s dependence on Chinese supply chains.
“Ucore Rare Metals is engaged in separation technologies for critical metals. Many new technologies of the 21st century – from wind energy to electric vehicles – are powered by critical metals,” said Ryan. “These critical metals are the things that make batteries work — metals like lithium, cobalt and nickel — or electric vehicle motor components… made of rare-earth elements and oxides… China has cornered the market for many of these materials, particularly rare ones.” Earth elements and some of the battery metals. If you look at the global landscape, you need to find ways to capitalize on opportunities in North America and Europe… Ucore is focused on nailing the mid-market of critical metal fabrication and finishing.”
Ryan then spoke about his professional background and how it prepared him for his current role at Ucore.
“I’m a mechanical engineer, but I’ve had a career in the automotive industry. I started a Tier One automotive company about 26 years ago that has evolved with innovative ideas and materials. A Tier 1 supplier is the most difficult and complex position to be in. They supply clients such as Stellantis, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Nissan and Toyota and you will learn about their profiles and what it takes to do business with their companies. I’ve made a career out of it, building industrial plants that go from inventive ideas to innovation and commercialization. I am very comfortable with the critical metals market because of the need for westernized technology that needs to be scaled to commercial levels has been in my wheelhouse throughout my career.”
Next, Ryan turned his attention to Ucore’s recent milestones.
“As the pandemic hit, the approach to globalization became a little more local and that opened up an opportunity, particularly in renewable energy. In 2022, as supply chains started to normalize, our team really focused on taking the technology we had acquired and building a commercial demo facility that would allow us to run campaigns, measure various metrics and to understand what the technology can do… This facility is now running in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. We’ve also been working on upstream relationships with pro-US rare earth concentrate companies who are looking for a solution outside of China due to rising geopolitical tensions… All of these provide really good inputs for our first separation facility targeted at Louisiana.”
