JAMSTEC's research has identified vast rare earth resources on the Pacific Ocean floor, particularly rich in heavy rare earths. While commercial extraction remains technologically challenging, JAMSTEC's work represents a potential future frontier for rare earth supply and demonstrates Japan's commitment to securing long-term resources.
