Market developments and strategic positioning
Recent Lynas-Japan agreement secures 5,000 tons of NdPr and 75% of heavy rare earths for Japan, tightening global supply.
Vertically integrated model positions the business as the only ex-China player with true supply security, benefiting from market scarcity.
Market developments support a price floor for NdPr and highlight the strategic value of integrated supply chains.
Production targets and capacity expansion
Targeting 6,000 tons NdPr run rate by year-end, with a clear execution plan focused on mechanical reliability improvements.
Upstream REO production exceeded 50,000 tons last year, with a focus on optimizing concentrate quality and economic value.
Recycling and third-party feedstock opportunities are expected to bring incremental production volume.
