Prices of praseodymium-neodymium oxides, a type of light rare earth, increased for the fifth consecutive day as of May 14, lifted by stepped-up downstream stockpiling as demand resumes with the fading impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

SHANGHAI, May 14 (SMM) – Prices of praseodymium-neodymium oxides, a type of light rare earth, increased for the fifth consecutive day as of May 14, lifted by stepped-up downstream stockpiling as demand resumes with the fading impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

SMM assessed spot prices of praseodymium-neodymium oxides (Pr-Nd oxides≥ 99%) at 270,000-272,000 yuan/mt as of May 14, up 1,000 yuan/mt from the previous day and up 7,500 yuan/mt from the prior week. The prices have climbed about 4.2% from April 14.

Prices of praseodymium-neodymium metal (Pr-Nd ≥ 98.5%) also advanced, to 340,000-342,000 yuan/mt as of May 14, 1,500 yuan/mt higher from May 13 and 10,500 yuan/mt higher from May 7.

Producers of permanent magnet materials and other downstream plants stepped up purchases as current prices of praseodymium-neodymium oxides and metals remain at the lowest levels in nearly three years.

While upstream producers tend to further firm up offers, SMM expects the momentum in the round of price rally to be limited in the short term.

JOGMEC Invests $33.9M in Toyota Tsusho's Namibian Rare Earth Project, Enhancing Supply Security

[SMM Rare Earth Flash News] Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security (JOGMEC) and Toyota Tsusho have announced that JOGMEC will invest up to C$47.7 million (approximately $33.9 million) in Toyota Tsusho’s Namibian rare earth project company to jointly develop the Lofdal heavy rare earth mine in Namibia. This is expected to become Japan’s first rare earth mine project in Africa, enhancing the supply security of critical minerals. The Lofdal deposit is rich in heavy rare earth elements such as dysprosium and terbium, which can be used in permanent magnetic materials for NEV motors, among other applications. The two parties will conduct a feasibility study through a newly established project company and plan to make a final investment decision in fiscal year 2027.

AS Dukung Proyek Tanah Jarang Madagaskar untuk Diversifikasi Rantai Pasokan, Kurangi Ketergantungan pada China

[Kilasan Logam Tanah Jarang SMM] Pemerintah AS telah memutuskan untuk mendukung proyek logam tanah jarang Ampasindava di Madagaskar guna mendorong diversifikasi rantai pasok mineral kritis dan mengurangi ketergantungan pada pasokan logam tanah jarang dari Tiongkok. Pengembang proyek Harena Rare Earths menyatakan bahwa Lembaga Keuangan Pembangunan Internasional AS (DFC) telah berkomitmen hingga US$4,48 juta untuk pabrik percontohan, pengujian laboratorium, dan proyek perlindungan lingkungan, membuka jalan bagi pendanaan selanjutnya. Tambang logam tanah jarang adsorpsi ion ini direncanakan mulai berproduksi pada pertengahan 2028, dengan perkiraan hasil tahunan sekitar 4.000 mt oksida logam tanah jarang, yang mana sekitar 1.700 mt merupakan logam tanah jarang bahan magnetik seperti neodimium-praseodimium, disprosium, dan terbium. Total investasi proyek ini sekitar US$150 juta.
