Systems and methods for recovery of rare-earth constituents from environmental barrier coatings (EBCs) are provided. One method includes for separating rare-earth (RE) containing constituents from a particulate feedstock containing a mixture of RE silicates and non-magnetic constituents includes disposing a collection member in a vicinity of the feedstock and magnetizing the collection member to generate a magnetic field sufficient to selectively attract the RE silicates to the collection member. The method further includes removing the RE silicates from the collection member.
