About the Project
Brazil's Place in Rare Earths
Brasil Terras Raras brings together technology, data, and fieldwork to expand Brazil's mineral exploration capabilities.
Geological Intelligence
We combine geochemical, mineralogical, and structural signals into a traceable view of mineral favorability.
Targeted Validation
We take prioritized hypotheses into the field to measure, sample, review, and learn.
We combine remote sensing, terrain, geological mapping, geochemistry, and available public data to build a structured view of the territory.
Explore the MethodFrom Mineral Resource to End Use
The rare-earth value chain turns geological evidence into critical materials for technology, energy, and industry.
Mineral Source
The chain begins by identifying ores and materials that contain rare-earth elements.
Extraction
Mineral processing concentrates rare-earth-bearing material for the next stages.
Separation
Physical and chemical processes isolate individual rare-earth oxides from mixed concentrates.
Transformation
Refined oxides can be converted into metals, alloys, and functional materials.
End Use
Rare earths enable permanent magnets, electronics, electric motors, wind turbines, and advanced technologies.
How We Investigate
From Territory to Mineral Targets
A traceable workflow combines territorial data, target prioritization, and field validation.
Remote Sensing for Mineral Exploration
Multispectral imagery and terrain models help identify structures associated with rare earth targets.
Geological and Geochemical Data Integration
Geology, geochemistry, terrain, and remote sensing are combined in a comparable, traceable dataset.
Field Validation and Continuous Learning
Field and laboratory results recalibrate the model and improve the precision of each new cycle.
Technology
A New Workflow for Rare Earths
Remote sensing, geology, geochemistry, and fieldwork are integrated in one traceable exploration workflow.
Remote Sensing
