Arafura Secures Major Investment for Nolans Project Amid Geopolitical Tensions

Arafura Resources ( (AU:ARU) ) has shared an announcement.

Arafura Rare Earths Limited has achieved a key milestone in its equity funding strategy for the Nolans Project with a A$200 million investment from the National Reconstruction Fund Corporation. The company has also secured a binding offtake agreement with Traxys Europe SA for NdPr oxide and is negotiating a long-term natural gas supply with Tamboran Resources Ltd. These developments position Nolans as a crucial player in diversifying global rare earth supply chains amid escalating geopolitical tensions and trade wars, particularly between the US and China. The project is strategically important as it offers a construction-ready, non-China supply chain solution, aligning with global efforts to secure critical mineral resources.
