Tungsten from Uzbekistan has been refined to high purity. A U.S. commercial test is planned.
American Resources (AREC) and ReElement, along with Uzbek partners, agreed to advance tungsten refining. They plan a U.S. commercial test, building on prior success in processing Uzbek tungsten. The deal aims to secure diversified critical mineral supply chains and boost economic cooperation between the U.S. and Uzbekistan.
