The bioaccumulation of rare earths in microorganisms was monitored yielding an uptake rate of up to 53,12% of overall present ionic REE concentration. In this manuscript we present the different concentration measurements that were taken during the process, before and after washing of the cells, to create a full picture of the localisation ...

The seventeen elements on the periodic table collectively known as "rare earths" or "rare earth metals" moved from a mostly ignored topic in middle school science classes to front page news in every major newspaper and a top level concern in every foreign ministry, seemingly overnight. By now, most know that they have become critical …

With no processing facilities in Myanmar, all of the rare earths mined in Kachin State are transported across the border into China, sources told Frontier and Danwatch.

The race to control rare earth production was on. In 1948, Klinger notes that India stopped exporting monazite—a mineral rich in rare earths and thorium, an atomic energy source. The United States tried to bargain with grain to relieve the country's famine, hoping to gain a Cold War ally. India refused, crushing US hopes that a deal would ...

Speed is of the essence. Hensel points out that Sweden recently announced a large rare earth deposit, but expects that it will take 10-15 years to ramp up production. The US and its allies may ...

And as demand soars for rare earths along with green energy, the abuses are likely to grow. "This rapid push to build out mining capacity is being justified in the name of climate change," said Julie Michelle Klinger, author of the book "Rare Earths Frontiers," who is leading a federal project to trace illicit energy minerals.

Frontier has also acquired the entire land area on which the Zandkopsdrift mine, tailings and related infrastructure will be located. Frontier plans to produce 17,000 tonnes of rare earths including 4,000 tonnes of magnet rare earths and 100,000 tonnes of battery grade manganese sulphate per annum. The Zandkopsdrift mineral reserves are ...

Interest has piqued since the 2010s, with more rare-earth prospecting, but essentially Australia, despite being the fourth-largest producer of rare-earths in the world, still sits on a vast and untapped quantity of these materials.
