【SMM News: US Department of the Interior Approves Resumption of Production at the Corosumkin Rare Earth Mine】On April 8, the Department of the Interior issued a permit to Daybreak Resources to continue developing the Corosumkin rare earth project. The project had been long delayed due to its location within the Mojave National Preserve in San Bernardino County.
Australian mining company, American Rare Earths, stated that the DOI confirmed their development rights under the Mining Law and the California Desert Protection Act.
The DOI's approval has paved the way for the development of the second rare earth mine in the US. Currently, there is only one operational rare earth mine in the US, namely the Mountain Pass Materials (MP Materials) rare earth mine of the same name, located just 10 kilometers away from this project.
