Designing Radiation Safety into REE Processing: Insights from REMHub
Why radiation safety matters in REE projects Radiation is easy to overlook because we cannot see it, smell it, or feel it in the moment. Yet it is a natural part of our environment, and it becomes especially relevant when we start moving, crushing, concentrating, dissolving, and refining rocks. The REMHub radiation safety webinar in […]
Rare Earths & Magnets: Expanding European Capacities
Conference Highlights – Stuttgart, 29–30 October The Rare Earths and Magnets: Expanding European Capacities conference, organised jointly with EIT RawMaterials, brought together leading industry actors, policymakers, researchers, and innovators for two days of focused discussion in Stuttgart. The event examined Europe’s critical need to strengthen its rare earth element (REE) and magnet value chains—an increasingly strategic […]
Two Sister Projects Powering Europe’s Rare Earth Independence
EU-funded rare earth research, development, and innovation projects REMHub and PERMANET are advancing critical expertise and technologies. Both operate across the entire value chain, from exploration and beneficiation to advanced recovery and recycling, strengthening Europe’s strategic sovereignty. Together, the projects represent more than 50 organizations and hundreds of rare earth experts across Europe, forming a […]
REMHub Advances Innovative 3D Printing Technology for Sustainable Permanent Magnet Production
The REMHub project, funded by the Horizon EU program, continues to push the boundaries of innovation in rare earth element (REE) recycling and permanent magnet production. In this context, researchers from Politecnico di Milano are pioneering the use of binder jetting 3D printing technology to create sustainable permanent magnets from recycled materials, addressing critical supply […]
Muon Solutions: Pioneers of muography in Finland and key technical partner in REMHub’s rare earth mission
One key technical partner driving REMHub’s innovation is Muon Solutions Oy, a Finnish deep-tech company specialising in muon imaging and geoscience technologies. Muon imaging is a cutting-edge technique that uses naturally occurring cosmic-ray muons — subatomic particles that constantly shower the Earth — to look inside solid materials, essentially “X-raying” the underground without excess drilling. […]
Joining forces to shape a Rare Earth Innovation Hub: REMHub Strategy and Networking Workshop
Europe’s rare earth element (REE) and permanent magnet industries sit in a strategically important yet fragile position. Domestic production is limited, dependence on Chinese imports is near total, and prevailing prices make local manufacture difficult to sustain. The question is no longer whether supply interruptions will occur, but how Europe will respond when they do. […]
Join us at Raw Materials Week 2025!
Securing a reliable and sustainable supply of critical raw materials (CRMs) is essential for Europe’s green and digital transition — yet projects across the value chain still face common bottlenecks that prevent solutions from reaching full scale. To address these challenges, the REMHUb project, together with nine Horizon Europe projects in the raw materials field, […]
REMHub M12 Consortium Meeting
The REMHub M12 Consortium Meeting was held at Politecnico di Milano’s Bovisa and Leonardo campuses from October 1st to 3rd. It brought together leading minds, experts and stakeholders in rare earths, recycling, and sustainable technology. Over three days, participants engaged in a series of workshops, technical sessions, and networking events designed to accelerate progress across […]
Shaping the Future of Rare Earths and Permanent Magnets in Europe: Highlights from the 2025 RMIS Workshop
On September 23rd and 24th, 2025, the Raw Materials Information System (RMIS) workshop was held at the European Health and Digital Executive Agency (HaDEA) in Brussels. The event was co-organised with the Joint Research Centre (JRC). The theme of the 2025 workshop was: “Leveraging raw materials to strengthen EU competitiveness: from research to innovation – […]
The first REMHub newsletter published
The REMHub project has released its first newsletter, providing updates on progress and collaboration across the European raw materials landscape. The issue highlights the project’s launch phase and early achievements, following eight active months since its start in October 2024. The newsletter also features the project’s growing collaborations with EU-level initiatives and events such as […]
