Lynas Secures U.S. Backed Rare Earth Supply Deal

Lynas Rare Earths has signed a binding Letter of Intent with the U.S. Department of War for a four-year supply of light and heavy rare earth oxide products, backed by about US$96 million of U.S. government funding. The arrangement sets a floor price of US$110 per kilogram for NdPr oxide and is intended to enhance U.S. national security and supply chain resilience.
