China has a near monopoly in Rare Earths much of which is sourced unsustainably
Pensana plans to establish world-class rare earth production at the Saltend Chemicals Park in the Humber.
With a nameplate capacity of 4,500 tonnes Saltend would become one of only two major producers outside China.
Lynas Corporation of Australia, currently the world’s largest non-China producer, last year produced around 4,700 tonnes from its facility in Malaysia.
