USA Rare Earth partners with Pasqal, Riven Systems on quantum machine-learning rare earth separation tech

• USA Rare Earth formed a strategic partnership with Pasqal, Riven Systems to develop next-generation rare earth separation technology.
• Project uses quantum machine learning to discover new extractant molecules, targeting smaller, lower-cost, less energy-intensive processing facilities.
• Riven will run automated experiments to generate training data; Pasqal will benchmark quantum models versus classical approaches.
• Work targets USA Rare Earth feedstocks, including Round Top mine output, third-party mixed rare earth carbonates, magnet manufacturing swarf.
• Companies expect the initial effort to expand into an end-to-end extractant discovery pipeline, feeding USA Rare Earth flowsheet optimization.
