The Top 30 Non-Chinese Rare Earth Elements Exploration & Development Companies
Research Facts Ltd, April 2011, Pages: 75
Rare Earths are a moderately abundant group of 15 metallic elements known as the Lanthanide series (atomic numbers 57 through to 71) plus Yttrium (39). Although Scandium (atomic number 21) is not a Rare Earth element, it is commonly included with the Lanthanides because of its similar properties.
Rare Earth elements have unique properties which make them indispensable for a wide variety of emerging, critical technologies; Auto Catalysts, Fluid Cracking Catalysts, Green Energy (e.g. Compact Fluorescent Lamps), Hybrid Electric Vehicles, Defence Applications (Defence And Weapons Systems), High Tech (e.g. Flat Panel Displays, Disk Drives, iPod/MP3 Players) etc..
China currently supplies approximately 95% of the global Rare Earths market. However China's own domestic use of its resources is soaring with internal consumption presently at about 60% of production and rising rapidly. Shipments from China are being curtailed - the total Chinese export quota for 2010 was 30,258 metric tons, 40 percent less than the 50,145 metric tons for 2009. International companies are buying up China's Rare Earth elements so fast, that half the initial 2011 quota had already been shipped out by the end of February. China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has called for a total ban on foreign shipments of terbium, dysprosium, yttrium, thulium, and lutetium.
Consequently, the world needs major new sources of Rare Earth elements. This report profiles the top 30 non-Chinese exploration and development companies seeking to identify and exploit these sources of supply. These are the companies with the best projects, the most experienced management teams and the biggest financial assets.
