What about South Carolina for US SMC#2? ***VAC Group and Cyclic Materials have set up and partnered there for magnet making and recycling. Ucore has an MOU with Cyclic and could feed REO's to VAC (which is receiving grants from DOD, like Ucore).
***BMW, Volvo, Scout Motors, Proterra (electric buses), and Oshkosh (electric mail trucks) all have significant EV factories in South Carolina for immediate magnet offtake.
***The Port of Charleston provides access to REO concentrates from all over the world.
