Rare earth mineral to material tracing
U.S. National Defense Industry
Rare Earth & Advanced Battery
Compliance Assurance
From mine to final component integration — every step in the rare earth mineral to material chain must be fully traced and documented.
RavenClear is a wholly U.S.-owned company providing full-service DFARS & NDAA compliance solutions.
Beginning 2027 — Full Supply-Chain Traceability for Rare Earth Magnets, Tantalum, and Tungsten is Required
Full supply-chain traceability for rare earth magnets, tantalum, and tungsten used in U.S. Department of War applications becomes mandatory under DFARS 252.225-7052 starting January 1, 2027.
Advanced batteries face phased restrictions beginning in 2028.
We Move Business Forward - Meeting compliance requirements shouldn't slow business or overburden teams
We take full ownership of the complex work required to achieve and maintain compliance to satisfy DFARS 252.225-7052 and FY2026 NDAA §842.
This includes preparing comprehensive Waiver Support Packages to support formal National Security and Non-Availability waiver requests.
What We Trace & Where It's Found
Neodymium & Samarium-Cobalt
Magnets Used in motors, actuators, sensors, and guidance systems — critical for drones, vehicles, and precision weapons.
Tantalum
Primarily found in capacitors on circuit boards — present in nearly every electronic device, including computers, displays, VR headsets, and power systems.
