LYC - Lynas Rare Earths

[rcw1]

A few Rare Earths things did OK today. Yes, news from China that they were going to weaponise rare earths due to the tariffs. I have been saying for a little bit that rare earths will come good once trade with China is affected, for whatever reason. I thought it would be when they attacked Taiwan, so this is a little out of left field. Not sure how much follow through there will be. Not sure how fast the West can create their own supply chain from the ground to the magnet either.

Hi @Sean K

The only place to separate Heavy Rare Earth (HRE) is China, for mine. Used in fighter jets. The rest is all good.

Lynas HRE processing is coming, but it isn't here yet, but hopefully soon. Then watch China squirm and the SP go to Mars

EDIT: p7 1/2 yearly report 26/02/25:
As announced on 27 June 2024, Lynas Malaysia is targeting first production of two separate Heavy Rare Earths (HRE) products in the 2025 calendar year. Construction of the new Dy-Tb circuit continued with commissioning and ramp up expected in mid-CY2025.

Kind regards

And whether it is to get into, or just ramp up production, a lot of cash will be needed so capital raising, dilution..even if the flavour of the time, not so sure rare earth in a depressed market and recession is such a safe haven.
Not specific to lyc, but including it..
