Is this gelatanized? Or does that distinction not apply since this is an extract?
Also, is this from red or black Maca?

That's not something that needs to happen for a solvent extraction like this. The gelatinization process is only needed for non-extracted maca root powder, as you need to break down those starches that are naturally in the root. In an extraction those starches do not come over in the process, so no need for gelatinization. I even did some trials of gelatinized maca myself years ago, and I still got stomach issues, which is why I always said I would not release a maca product till I could do a potent extraction that removes all the starches from the equation altogether.
