U.S. Invests $439 Million to Reduce China REE Dependence
-
最新报道：The U.S. Department of Defense has awarded $439 million to MP Materials and Lynas Rare Earths to boost domestic production of rare earth elements, reducing reliance on Chinese supplies. MP Materials will receive $350 million to establish processing facilities in Texas, while Lynas gets $89 million for a Texas-based heavy rare earth separation plant. Both projects aim to strengthen America's supply chain for critical minerals used in defense and clean energy technologies. The funding comes amid growing concerns over China's dominance in rare earth production, which currently supplies about 80% of U.S. imports. These investments support the Pentagon's strategy to diversify sources for strategic materials.
