Over the past decades there has been an explosion in the demand of rare earth metals, as more and more devices requiring rare earth metals rise.

Devices such as computer memory, rechargeable batteries, magnet, and even defense equipment/devices such as night vision goggles, precision-guided weapons and GPS equipment require rare earth metals.
Companies mining and refining rare earth metals are profiting from the decades long increase in demand of these metals.
Amid the inflation crisis, the global market for Rare Earth Metals estimated at US$4 Billion in the year 2020, is projected to reach a revised size of US$6.6 Billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 7.3% over the analysis period 2020-2027.
China placed restrictions on its Rare Earth Metals exports, this could potentially see REM stocks of companies based outside grow exponentially. I strongly recommend NYSE: MP as the best REM stock to ride this wave.

Thank you Henry, for your list of Rare Earth Metal Companies.
What are your thought on Texas Mineral Resources Corp (OTC: TMRC)?
Round Top Mountain’s (Texas) rare earth elements looks promising.
I am interested as well! I took positions in several Rare Earth Mineral stocks last week.
MP
GOMRF
LYSCF
TMRC
There is a lot of interest in REM right now, and it seems like a good time to get in. Curious what Henry John would say about the above stocks!?
I love MP,and with China putting restrictions on its REM exports, US-based REM stocks are going to pop like crazy.
What was the basis for selecting those four stocks? I’m familiar with all except GOMRF.
This is an interesting list of REM stocks ranked by market cap.

Iam looking for someone who is recycling REM
we’re looking for a OK –Small refiner who would like to get REM flow immediately—Not pay Millions to MINE THEM
An interim small refiner can get a good jump on supply—and start FAST
some one has a refiner who will welcome the product flow

Very interesting list, things to look further into. Dedicated researcher here!
Do you know of a rare earth company with a market cap around 1.5 billion taht is located in Utah? None of those on your list are, and I can’t seem to get either the name or the ticker, just had a tip.
Thanks!

Energy Fuels (NYSE: UUUU) mines rare earth elements in Utah, however, its market cap is around $900 million Canadian Dollars.
communist china ownes part of mp mine. they send all the ore to china for processing, then china sells it back to us and other countries or not. so who is benefiting
