· Its Bayan Obo mines contain 70 percent of the world's reserves, which is one of the main reasons China can buy us a hundred times over. Mining these minerals, however, is a pain in the ass that creates nightmarish vistas. Even after you've thrown enough people at the mine to retrieve the minerals, there's still the small matter of processing them into a salable state. That's where the ...

The world's main source of REE, Bayan Obo in China, appears to have formed by hydrothermal replacement associated with carbonatite magmatism.
