A significant metallurgical advancement at the Hat polymetallic deposit in British Columbia has achieved an 82% primary extraction rate of scandium and an 88% total recovery of high-purity scandium oxide. Doubleview Gold Corp. is leveraging existing copper-gold mining infrastructure to treat scandium as a byproduct, enhancing efficiency and cost-effectiveness. With global demand for scandium projected to exceed 500 tons by 2028, this development positions North America to strengthen its supply chain. On-chain data indicates increasing interest in the sector, supported by favorable policy and market conditions for commercial production.
