After CTC's currently under construction, demonstration unit successfully proves that this electric arc furnace (EAF) technology will yield these most important, widely-used magnets, a domestic supply chain will be established and China's monopoly broken, due to Mr. McClintic's research and development work with his colleagues at CTC; both the company and Nation benefit.
