Description

The rare earth metals market was worth US$ 11 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach US$ 32 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 10.2% through 2030.

In certain devices that people use every day, rare earth metals and alloys containing them are used, such as computer memory, DVDs, rechargeable batteries, cell phones, catalytic converters, magnets, fluorescent lighting, and so more. There has been an explosion in demand for several products that need rare earth metals over the last twenty years. Very few people owned a mobile phone twenty years ago, but today more than 5 billion people own a mobile telephone. The use of rare earth elements in computers has expanded almost as exponentially as cell phones.

Many rechargeable batteries are made of compounds from rare earth minerals. Charger demand is expected to drive market growth for portable electronic devices such as cell phones, readers, tablets, and cameras. Batteries that fuel both electric vehicle as well as hybrid-electric vehicle produce many pounds of rare earth compounds. If the selling of electric and hybrid cars is motivated by worries over energy independence, climate change and other problems, demand for batteries manufactured with rare earth compounds will grow much higher.

As catalysts, phosphors, and polishing compounds, rare earths are used. These are used for the monitoring of air emissions, illuminated displays on mobile devices, and optical-quality glass polishing. It is predicted that both of these commodities will encounter rising demand. Cerium is widely used as a catalyst in motor vehicle catalytic converters, while neodymium and praseodymium are used to make batteries for electric vehicles.

Actions have been taken by numerous companies and governments against rare earth minerals. In other countries for example, Chinese businesses have been purchasing rare earth minerals. China Non-Ferrous Metal Mining Group purchased a controlling stake in Lynas Corporation, an Australian company with one of the highest rare earth component outputs outside China, in 2010. In Zambia, they acquired the Baluba Mine. This type of initiative by companies would also affect the development of the industry.

In the national security, rare earth factors play a key role. Night-vision goggles, precision-guided weapons, communications systems, GPS devices, batteries, and other defense electronics are used by the military. It also offers an immense benefit to the military of the United States. Rare earth metals are main materials used in armored vehicles and bullets to create the extremely hard alloys that crumble upon contact.

Asia Pacific dominates the market for Rare Earth Metals

In the overall rare earth metal segment, Asia Pacific retained a higher market share in terms of both volume and value in 2019. Along with major rare earth metal processors and customers in the region, the presence of the largest rare earth reserve is projected to further raise the market demand of rare earth metals.
