Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] |
INVESTMENTS | INVESTMENTS Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate As of March 31, 2025, the Company has a 6.58% equity interest in the Donald Project JV to develop the Donald Project with Astron. See Note 3 – Transactions for more information. The Company’s net loss includes its proportionate share of the net loss of the Donald Project JV. When the Company records its proportionate share of net loss, it increases equity loss of unconsolidated affiliates in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and reduces the carrying value of that investment on its balance sheet. The Company uses the equity method of accounting to account for its investments in the Donald Project JV because it exercises significant influence, but not control, over the entities. The Company’s judgement regarding the level of influence over its equity investments includes considering key factors such as its ownership interest, representation on the applicable Board of Directors and participation in policy-making decisions of the Donald Project JV. The Company’s proportionate share of net loss was $0.14 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Investment without a Readily Determinable Fair Value The Company’s investments without readily determinable fair value include its investments in Westland Mineral Sands Co Limited and Tate Transition Metals Limited. The Company does not have significant influence over these investments. The following table is a summary of the Company’s investments:
| March 31, 2025 |  | December 31, 2024
