Rare earths crunch? Why we need them and who has them | Business Beyond
You may not have heard of most rare earths, but the 17 metallic elements known as rare earths are essential to modern life. They’re in our smartphones, computers, TVs and just about every other electronic device. They also play a major part in plans to create a carbon-free future. However, extracting them can be highly environmentally destructive and there’s concern over China’s dominance of the market. In the latest edition of Business Beyond we look at the race to secure enough rare earths to power the present and create a greener future.

Rare Earth Elements: China's Vibranium?
Many of our favorite stories feature valuable substances with some amazing qualities. Mithril, vibranium, unobtanium, while all fictional, there are similar substances being mined in one specific place on Earth; China. Here and only here ore rich in what are called "Rare Earth Elements," are extracted and used to made some of the most cutting edge technology on the planet. What's the story behind this real-life vibranium, and how has China come to control it's entire market?
It makes more sense if you watch the video.

Tech Companies Depend on China for Rare Earths. Can That Change? | WSJ
Neodymium is critical to making the wheels of a Tesla spin or creating sound in Apple’s Airpods, and China dominates the mining and processing of this rare-earth mineral. So the U.S. and its allies are building their own supply chain. Photo illustration: Clément Bürge/WSJ
