  • "We only get close to that for zirconium and heavy rare earths but we do not see any issues for those with established market connections," a spokesperson for [Alkane] told IM. "With the light rare earths, the deal with Shin-Etsu will take care of the key rare earths. Similarly, with niobium, with Treibacher looking after the marketing." "On rare earths we are still working to commercialise the memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed with Shin-Etsu of Japan, which would result in a toll-treatment separation agreement to produce the full spectrum of rare earths," Alkane said.

    "We think the rare earths market is showing some signs of recovery but it is for specific rare earths like praseodymium and neodymium," Alkane told IM.
