U.S. Army Partners with REalloys for Rare Earth Processing Facility in Utah

The U.S. Army has selected REalloys to build a facility for processing rare earth elements, dysprosium and terbium, at Utah's Tooele Army Depot. This initiative marks the first time the Army has hosted commercial mineral processing on a U.S. installation. The facility aims to strengthen the domestic supply chain for critical minerals used in defense applications, such as high-performance magnets in weapons and electronics. The project is part of a broader effort to reduce reliance on foreign sources, particularly China, which dominates the global rare earth market.

Trump Administration Proposes Deep-Sea Mining in American Samoa Waters

Trump Administration Proposes Deep-Sea Mining in American Samoa Waters

The Trump administration is advancing plans to open American Samoa's waters to deep-sea mining, a move that could auction off 31 million acres of ocean floor. This proposal, announced by the Marine Minerals Administration, aims to extract minerals like cobalt and nickel, which are crucial for green technologies and defense systems. The initiative has sparked criticism from environmental groups and local communities, who fear irreversible damage to marine ecosystems and cultural heritage. The lease sale is tentatively scheduled for November 2026, but faces opposition due to the lack of established regulations governing deep-sea mining.

U.S. Invests in Madagascar Rare Earths Project to Diversify Supply Chains

U.S. Invests in Madagascar Rare Earths Project to Diversify Supply Chains

The U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) has committed $4.84 million to a rare earths project in Madagascar, operated by Harena Rare Earths Plc. This investment is part of a broader U.S. strategy to reduce reliance on China, which currently dominates over 70% of global rare earth production. The Ampasindava project aims to produce approximately 4,000 metric tons of rare earth oxides annually by 2028, focusing on high-value magnet materials essential for various technologies. The project is in the permitting and study phase, with commercial production expected in the coming years.
