The project is based at Safrans Pitstone site in the Chilterns, UK, focusing on finding substitutes for minerals like samarium used in jet engines. The initiative aims to reduce Europes reliance on China, which controls 90% of the global rare earth supply, and mitigate potential disruptions to aircraft production.
