Ucore Draws Interest Amid Critical Minerals Momentum

1/24/2026, 8:03:47 PM | China | United States | Canada

Mining

Ucore’s Alaska rare‑earth project and reported tech deals have spurred investor discussion amid geopolitical supply constraints and sector gains.

Ucore Rare Metals, a Bedford, Nova Scotia–based miner founded in 2006, focuses on extraction, beneficiation and separation of rare and critical metals in Canada and the United States. The company holds 100% of the Bokan–Dotson Ridge rare earth project on Prince of Wales Island, Alaska, and rebranded from Ucore Uranium in 2010.

Shares traded on the USOTC were quoted at $7.01, down $0.02 (‑0.28%), with a bid of $6.57, ask $7.34 and volume around 722,669. Data were delayed and the market was closed as of Jan. 23, 2026, 10:00:02 PM.

Discussion across investor forums has been active, with participants flagging recent licensing deals and tech adoption as positive signals. Several posts tied recent sector strength to geopolitically driven supply constraints — notably China’s Jan. 5 restrictions impacting medium and heavy rare earths — and raised hopes for MOUs, offtake agreements and commercial build‑out progress such as solvent extraction and separation (SX) flows.

Commenters offered a range of views from cautious that current gains may be sentiment‑driven to bullish on longer‑term upside if Ucore can convert partnerships and technology deployments into revenue and domestic processing capacity.
