Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

Scandium has been identified by Canada and other international governments as a critical mineral. The current supply of scandium from Western Allied sources is reported to be extremely limited. The joint venture links the recovery of scandium from the Kapuskasing mine to the production of high-strength aluminum alloys at the Mississauga facility.
