SASKATOON (TSP) -- The Saskatchewan Research Council (SRC) plans to construct a mineral processing plant in Saskatoon designed to improve the processes involved in recovering valuable metals and minerals.  According to Craig Murray, VP of SRC's mining and minerals division, the company expects the plant to be fully operational in the next few months and says the plant will support companies across the globe involved in processing minerals such as potash, gold, base metals, and especially rare earth minerals. SRC expects that the plant's pilot scale demonstrations  will increase mining yields and decrease overall cost of production.  According to Lynne Yelich, minister of state for Western Economic Diversification, the facility increases the SRC's ability to develop, test, scale-up and demonstrate more efficient ways for companies to extract and process rare earth minerals.

Comment: According to Yelich the new processing plant will be the only one of its kind in Saskatchewan and one of the very few within Canada with the ability to process rare earth minerals.
